She folded her arms beneath her breasts

Author Robert Jordan has passed away.

This is sad. Many years ago I enjoyed some of these books very much.

However Gil said the following, Friday night:

"If Robert Jordan dies before he finishes the Wheel of Time series, I am going to kill the whole world."

I am already trembling.

He hooked my 14 year old self with his swords and sorcery. He then dragged the series on for another decade and half, with each book worse than the last. The last few were atrocious. I nearly gave up on them more times than I care to count, but kept reading because my younger self would have wanted me to. This is his ultimate betrayal. I'll help Gil kill the whole world.

This comment showed up on the slashdot forums, and sums up my feelings on his passing.

“In the spirit of the man, friends and family of the deceased have requested that his eulogy be tedious and poorly written.”

But at least New York wasn't the victim of a terrorist attack!
