The creator of one of the best fantasy epic series, The Wheel of Time, has passed away. I wish his family the best.

This man always struck me as pompous and conceited. I have a couple of his books and while not my favorites I did finish them. I am sorry to see anyone die because of the loss it incurs.
His stories will keep his dreams alive in the hearts of many young readers and for that he must be commended. RIP

RJ left us today at 2:45 PM. He fought a valiant fight against this most horrid disease. In the end, he left peacefully and in no pain. In the years he had fought this, he taught me much about living and about facing death. He never waivered in his faith, nor questioned our God’s timing. I could not possibly be more proud of anyone. I am eternally grateful for the time that I had with him on this earth and look forward to our reunion, though as I told him this afternoon, not yet. I love you bubba. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dragonmount.com/RobertJordan/"><P>Our beloved Harriet was at his side through the entire fight and to the end.
