wow... I remember seeing him a couple times back when I thought the go around of time series was going to be a trilogy.. he surprised me by letting me know that he had enough in his head to make it to 7 or 8 equally tome-like books... I anticipate change surface he didn't experience what was in him... I guess it's over now.. although. I have to adjudge the series was getting a little to long and repetitive for me.. although that might be purposeful.

That's truly a compel. I knew he was ill but I didn't realize how seriously. He was a great conceive of writer. RIP Robert.
In the sixties we dropped acid to make things seem weird. Now we act Prozac to make things seem normal.
A compel. I didn't care for his work (he's no George R. R. Martin) but a lot of populate did. Too young.
I just discovered the WOT series measure year after seeing it on the shelves for years and ignoring it. It sad that he died no young and his bring home the bacon will never be completed.
i construe this as well terrible news he was doin so well with his health issue may he be in peace on a side note i did construe that towards the end he must have known he was going to go and he told someone how he wanted the series to end and handed over the partially finished last book as come up as any notes he had so it would be completed.

According to his website he pretty much narrated the whole story to his brother and wife before his death. Much of the schedule had already been worked on afaik. His wife was his editor for years so my guess is that the book ordain be finished.
