Okay good, I was beginning to doubt my ability to read. I like that Brandon chose to do this, it gives the reader more freedom. As you can tell, there were readers with totally different perspectives of David.
I picked up Calamity from the bookstore yesterday and decided to go online and read up on the characters. I was wanted to reintroduce myself to all the characters before I started the newest book. I started with Coppermind and almost immediately I'm puzzled. I see a caricature of David as an African-American. Did I miss a physical description or something? I've always thought of David as a Logan Lermon sort.

..Obviously this a dream casting, the movie would be very unbalanced if the biggest stars of the movie all played minor roles the way they would in my casting. I tried to find actors with the acting ability to accurately portray the characters and fit the physical apperance of their respective roles
