So conflicted.
Robert Jordan passed away yesterday, due to the disease he's been fighting for two years. We knew it was coming, but it's still a shock to read. It's sad to see anyone pass on from disease, especially those with talent (I liked his Conan books, and the first three WoT), but at the same time I'm relieved - no more Wheel of Time books, unless someone picks up the reins soon. So much for "nine more books".
