    Wow. I've never read any of his books, but I know the man was a legend in fantasy circles. I think I'll go pick up the first book in the Wheel of Time tomorrow, as a tribute.

    Rest in peace.

    Thats such a shame, I didn't know he was sick. I just got into his writing a year ago, and I am on book 2 of the wheel of time series. If you haven't read it yet, you should go check it out.

    I think the fact that he was sick was partly responsible for the Wheel of Time taking so long. That and it's so long...

    RIP, you were a good author.

    Now did he leave enough notes for someone else to finish the "Wheel of Time" series?

    That's a point... Wasn't he on the last book?

    If he was nearly done the bloody series when he croaked, he'd better stay dead. I was waiting until he was done before reading any more of his novels.
