A Memory of Light

They ended it with Wind

appropriate I think.  Nice touch.

I actually thought the quote at the end of the book (not Loial's) was the proper ending.  That sounded appropriately awesome.  Truly awesome.

Not just "hey, we need light and dark, gee, and we get to choose. hyuckhyuck"

It's like they went hipster with the ending, trying to be cool by being 'subtle' or something.

After 14 books, there is absolutely no reason to be subtle.   The moment with Callandor was good.  But Moiraine and Nynaeve didn't actually do anything.  So many people built up so many ways and it was all a truncated mess of wasting paper on descriptions of clothing.   Bleh.

I'll remember Lan, Perrin, Egwene and Nynaeve.   Secondarily; Elayne, Moiraine, Rand and Mat.   I'll have to jump with a memory of "Oh yeah!" To remember anyone else, it's already what I do with the rest of them.

Sorrybut RandasMoridintolivehappilyeverafter is LAME.

I almost thought that they were going to say Cadsuane was black!  I swear!  LOL That's how wily she always was!  Awesome.

Awww Free Will.

Umm duh.

[endofthewheel]

I knew Perrin was more than vitally important.

How far back did I call it?

[endofthewheel]

Yes, Logain.   Yes.  You did good.

Thanks for not fucking that up, guys :/

[endofthewheel]

this gets absolutely worse by the page.

I hurt my hand to hurt yours.  LAME.  Good lord every other story is better than the one that matters most.  Pathetic.

[endofthewheel]

Been reading this whole time.  Too much happening to make comments, I guess.  Not worth comments... I'd keep making the same ones.

But I'm getting a bit bored already and I really don't care about Padan Fain Mist being "Chaos" to the Good/Bad of the Shadow and Light. 

I also found it distinctly distasteful that Thom used the word "exquisite" to describe the Last Battle - as if Jordan was saying his own work was exquisite.

It's adequate, as stories go.  Just adequate.   I've read much, much better.

What I gave when I thought Lan had died... I have not cried like that in a really, really long time.

I feel a bit cheated ;) 

But not really :D

[endofthewheel]

LOL Aviendha hasn't done shit during any of this.  I hope she can fucking redeem her sorry ass and soon.

[endofthewheel]

something just occured to me that made me feel something...

My two favorites.  Egwene and Lan.  Always, for twenty years.  Favorites.  And look what they had in them.

[endofthewheel]

i cant even -- Lan, what... I dont even

[endofthewheel]

If someone names a baby after Egwene in the epilogue I'm going to punch someone in the face.

[endofthewheel]

The Flame of Tar Valon

I knew something would make me a quivering mess of tears.

Egwene <3

[endofthewheel]

I'm sorry but they did the wrong thing here.

They spent too little time with Rand in the Pit of Doom against Shai'tan.

I don't even care anymore.  The "battle" was beyond stupid and childish.  Rand being shown how many people are dying because of the Battle?  Oh my god, it's beyond stupid.  He's weeping - really?  Are you fucking serious?

This is just awful.

[endofthewheel]

Oh nevermind Egwene is fighting Taim.  I can't even care about to keep them apart.  lol

Starting to drag on a bit!

[endofthewheel]

I'm so sick of the Forsaken being considered so goddamn godly.

Egwene and Logain together have to take him out?  No one is good enough, pitiful little new people, non-Age of Legends people.   Boring.
