DiamondMind Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 I skimmed it but purposefully avoided reading anything past page 500 or so. I still want more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Wait, I got it! Jasnah is alive. See, Silver has already read the book, and he thought that Khyrindor was saying that he knew Jasnah was alive and said that was a spoiler. Therefore, Jasnah alive = spoiler = true. YES!!! Edit: And that's why s/he said your mileage may vary, since though it was a guess it's still true. Jasnah is aliiiive, Jasnah is aliive! And Peter is a master troller. We need to stake him or honor him after the book comes out,I'm not sure which. P.S: No, I have not read the book, which is why I can guess. Well, maybe you're correct. Or maybe it's all in the context. Or maybe we're all tiny insignificant beings lost in a very large universe... Anyway, where was I? Ah, reverse logic. Or reverse-reverse logic? Hm Also, I'm a she (; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke.spence Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 The non-spoiler-review things you are conjecturing to mean that Jasnah is still alive: They don't mean what you think they mean. Just when I had hope again, you had to come and put an end to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddleg Posted March 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Alive or dead the duel is still on. 8am outside the camps on the merchant road. That way the body can be a reminder for all the other trolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khyrindor Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 He may be a troll, but he isn't the reason Jasnah is dead (or not). That is Brandon's fault, though where would any of us be without him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bschnebs Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Peter, After listening to the chapter 7 preview I would challenge you to a duel on behalf of my favorite character. Shards at dawn. /sad I think you mean Peet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aheerema Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Regarding the apparent death of Jasnah the Heretic, the mentor to our book's leading lady... Brandon seems to prefer to stay away from tropes, or to turn them on their head, so I'm hoping this is a fake-out of the the "mentor occupational hazard" trope... of course, another trope is "Not Really Dead"... sigh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khyrindor Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) I don't think she's alive...But I also don't think she's dead, well, not for long. Edited March 3, 2014 by Khyrindor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chlehrma Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 I thought the spoilers on amazon were awesome! Especially the part when Kaladin armwrestles a Chasmfiend to win a Mac Truck. I never knew Kaladin looked like Rocky. It was awesome...wait...do we have different spoilers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmingly Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 ...on your copy, was a trollface copypasted over Kaladin's head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 [JediMindTrick] You all see an embedded image of my awesome Photoshoppery, in which I have masterfully taken the cover image of Words of Radiance, and have then augmented it with a stylized drawing of trollface, vaguely resembling Kaladin's released branded glyphs, superimposed on his forehead.

Shardbearer Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 I did read the Ars Arcanum...nothing really spoilery there. But yeah, they have something in there from the end of the book. I had to avert my eyes big time there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colby Jack Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 It's not very well-done. I think you need to put more power points in your skill tree. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 It's not very well-done. I think you need to put more power points in your skill tree. I think the problem is with your mind. The image I so clearly posted and you did not imagine only has a trace of trollface instead of Kaladin's brands. For some reason you couldn't perceive that properly and ended up with a trollface overflow. Perhaps you should put more points on your mental attributes? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natans Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) I believe that now I know what is feel the thrill for battle, the ache for a wortly foe(book), man i want so much this book =) Just 5 more hours Argent you are Broken now congratulations =) Edited March 3, 2014 by Natans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Can you pleeeease tell them to put it up? By the way, I know Jasnah's alive, because of Tor's 'non-sloilery' reveiw. My book probably won't come for a week or two. welcome to the north. Do you "know" that, or are you guessing? I think it's the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you're just one of those squishy mage types! I'll have you know I could max out any stat I want, I only invest more in strength cause I am currently wearing the best armor in the game!

And no, I'm not selling. Calling it now maybe 10-20 years in advance but inb4 there's a character in a book named Sander and his son is mentioned in a similar context. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 I... can't actually offer a rebuttal. But now I shall legally change my name to Sander and make it my lifelong goal to mate with as many females as I physically can. Thus ensuring I bring forth the maximum amount of happiness in the world a single person can bring - since being able to call yourself a "Sander's Son" is the highest honor and joy.
