  1. This will probably be Controversial Opinion but I think one of the ways this series can differentiate itself from the Crowd is to play up its Diversity of races.The World of Wheel of time is such a mix of different Races and Cultures.If they Play it up the show would certainly look different from your standard european Fantasy.The Diversity of the Wheel of time world should allow them to Racebend without it contradicting the Stories.I would love to see Rand and the Aiel played by an Indian Actors and Actreses.Just Dye their Hair red.Emond Fielders Id like played by Hispanic Actors and Actresses.
  2. So Ive finished Book 4 and 5.Book 4 was pretty sweet with Rand becoming the Carcann and Matts Transformation,Perrin was actually quite awesome in this book.Lanfear was also interesting. Book 5 was a problem.The plot plods on and on and on. Also I have to say the Forsaken are disppointing so far with the obvious exception of Lanfear and Ishmaeal. I dint care for the Aes Sadai and now I dont care for the Wise ones. Rands romance is very eyeroll inducing.I howver really like Rands character development.Matt annoys me with his selfishness at times but hes cool So whats my view on the series so far?Well it started off very cliche but its gotten very interesting mythos wise.If a tv series was adapted they would do well to reinvent the beginning so as not to bore viewers straight off.That is reinvent the Book 1 and 2 plot to not be so cliche and plodding-book 1 especially I also noticed that GOT seems very inpired by WOT.Wargs=Wolfbrother,Dragon(Rand/Dany)leading a Middleeastern warrior tribe(Dothraki/Aiel)etc
  3. Liked Dragon reborn.Mats getting interesting,love Perrin and Rand is walking the patth of the badass.I however hate anything Aes Sadai related.HATE IT. So im going for the good stuff now books 4-6
  4. Well just finished Greathunt. liked it not loved it. Not happy that the 3rd book is Randlessbut ill read.Also not happy tht Thom is alive.I supect Jordan must be averse to killing main characters and tht sucks.Also VERY bored with the girls
  5. Division is the Surge of Destruction and Decay. Nothing to do with dividing storm-light. The Soldiers are Likely Just Squires or Radiants in training
  6. I suspect Awakening an Honor blade would make it capable of controlling all the surges not just 2
  7. Good point. If the Skybreakers do have the missing Shardweaapons that makes them very dangerous.....I mean 200 Shards...
  8. There were 300 shardblades and plates left behind by KR during the recreance.Fastforward to present day and there are less than a 100 known shards.Where are the missing 200 shards? My guess is someone has them-Someone hiddn and my money is on Skybreakers
  9. In one of Dalinars Visions,he noted that the shardblades and plates abandoned by the KR during Recreancewas substantially larger than the ones he knew about in present day.Which means there is a substantial amount of Shardblades and Shardplates that are missing.Question is where are they? My guess is someone has them.Some secret player collected this shardweapons and now has an entire army of Shardbearers at its command hidden away from the public. Looking at the various secret factions at work in Roshar, My money is on it being the Skybreakers. I Expect Naln to show up with an army of shardbearers in Book 3
  10. Indeed.Makes me yearn for stormlight live action
  11. I have no problem with the Journey before destination.I question why the journey has to be so darn Boring,predictable,cliche and slow. Im starting to see why there has been no live adapatation of Wheel of time despite fanboy popularity. Ill howver take your word and try book 2.Thanks
  12. if Nightblood counts as a Splinter it should grant powers like a Spren albeit diff powers since it wld be a splinter of Endowment not a splinter of Honor/Cultivation . Splinters of Honor/Cultivation grant Surgebinding powers.On the other hand Splinters of Endowment like Divine Breath grant Returned Powers. So that means that the wielder of a Stormlight powered Nightblood cld have the powers of the Returned.Fitting for Szeth who has now returned from the dead.
  13. Just found this on deviant art.here http://satarariley.deviantart.com/art/Kaladin-and-Syl-439713156
  14. So in short the good stuff is 4-6 yet I have to force myself through 1-3. Cant do.Already forced myself thru book 1...if 2 and 3 are the same quality as 1 then I guess this series isnt for me. Thanks
