Yeah, yeah, I know his books weren't popular with everyone, but this is a sad day for those of us who have been waiting forever for the end of the Wheel of Time series.

But he did say he planned to continue writing until they nailed him into his coffin....

damn that sucks...he was a nice guy too. My brother lived a few houses down the street from him when he attended College of Charleston. Selfishly I hope he left enough notes behind that someone can finish the series.

I'm a Chicago boy. When I first heard the news, I thought of this guy.

Jordan knew his end was near, and he did leave notes for someone else to finish his last book. (link)

Well, now, you could still be hip and cool and know who the author is! ;)

Only if you're not Aaron.

(Just keeping up appearances, man...)

I can't believe this solemn posting about the death of an author I enjoy has taken such a turn. I should go clutter up the Pavarotti discussion! :(

Anyhow, I hope that the final book eventually sees the light of day, and if not, at least let the notes go, so that we can see where it all would have led.
