Recap part 5 is sitting as a draft, because a few days after writing this one I jetted off to India and haven't gotten around to picking the book up again (this was an instant re-read, but I had put the book down for some other material as I headed o/s). Didn't realise you were a WoT reader Matt! I don't mind paying the Australia premium for the better cover and big paperback format vs. the US hardcover with the Gone With The Wind cover :D Apologies!

Where's part 5? I confess, I reread all 11 books before this came out (I was at home for 7 months, remember?). I'm better, but I still need some sort of checklist for which forsaken have been killed and how (i.e. are/have they coming/come back?). From what I understand, Jordan knew he was dying and was tidying up and may have had a hand in picking Sanderson. I read Mistborn and can see why - long books where you read 300 pages and go, "hang on, nothing's actually happened!" - Jordan was like Sandersons idol... Whats worse is I ordered it from Amazon, so have the dreadful cover. I was enjoying the recap! Where’s part 5?
