Book Review: A Fond Farewell
Summary: 4 Stars
First of all, a few months late, a fond farewell to Robert Jordan. He persevered for over a decade to bring us one of the greatest fantasy epics of my generation. He, however, passed before he was able to see his journey to its completion.
Knife of Dreams, while not quite on par with the beginning of the series, is still a good read: intriguing, novel, and just plain good. It advances the story quite well, where a few of the other recent books did not do well, it developed many of the characters much more deeply, including Perrin, Matrim, and the women most of all, but even the lesser characters; Elyas, the Forsaken, Moiraine (though 'dead') and Lan.
Finally, it did what I think Jordan felt he must do. It set everything up to be finished in one more installment. I believe that, with his amyloidosis, he felt he must make it as easy to finish as possible, in the event that someone else had to do it.
I am worried about Brian Sanderson having to do it, but Mistborn was very well received and the time I have invested in the series already mandates that I see it to the end. So, good luck Mr. Sanderson, do not disappoint us loyal fans. And Mr. Jordan, fare thee well.
