Jeremy D. Miller -- The Shade Tree Developer

Under the hood and working with .Net, TDD, Software Design, and Agile Stuff

Godspeed Mr. Jordan (OT)

It was a sad day for me.  Wheel of Time author Robert Jordan passed away today from a rare blood disease.  It sounds like he's left the manuscript for the last book in order for someone else to finish.  Let's hope it's a good send off for one of my favorite authors.

Ohh crap, I'm so sorry to read this. He was one of my favourite authors as well and I was really hoping he'd get better from his condition :(

Crap!!  I'm only half-way through a gigantic series that doesn't resolve?  Crap.  Well, blessings are blessings. I still got a few more volumes left before it unravels.

This definitely sucks.  I've read that he has been audio recording the final storyline throughout the past few months.  It won't be the same, of course, but we need to be able to read book 12!
