Robert Jordan Dead

Damm, I always thought he would make it.

I met him in 1993(?) in Perth during the National SF Con, and when I talked to him he told me that the first part of the Wheel of time story that had come to him was the finale. He explained that he had a very clear idea of what would happen at the end, and that this vision had never wavered.

The finish to this story will be the one part he will not get to write.

I am sure Memory of Light will be written eventually, indeed I know that he basically was writing it days before he died. It will not be the same, of that I am also certain...

Rest in Peace...
