    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I had to turn off the ramp up feature on my CPAP machine. I need it full blast to start with. I never had a problem wearing mine. The first night I wore it, I woke up feeling great in the morning and have been hooked ever since.

    I forgot which forsaken was reborn but when he was a man, he was into some debauchery and when he was stuffed into a woman's body he continued that behavior.

    Jordan had that in his books, forsaken killed and resurrected into what ever body they had. A male went into a female body and did channel sadain.

    Wheel of Time

    If I remember right Sanderson said some company optioned the entire cosmere works for $250 million. I think he put that in one of his updates. Writers and creators just need to realize I'm order it make a good show, stick the the source material. Anything outside of that turns to shit because...

    So it seems that billy Zane wheel of time thing a few years ago was following the book more closely than this show?

    If I recall wasn't strength in the power relative to how easy you learned things or discovered things? Anyway I finally finished episode two, thought it was much better than the first one.

    Im sure all the hand waving is for the audience to let them know she's doing something magic. I would have preferred to one power to be separate colored strands that the caster weaves together. Bit that is more in line with the book

    Ok so I finished the first episode. I have not watched the other two yet. As someone who has read Eye of the World at least 10 times since 1990's. This is not how I envisioned Jordan's world to be.

    I'm about 15 minutes into the first episode. Casting seems way off and two rivers is not how I remember it in the books.

    Wheel of Time

    It was Lews who led the 100 companions to reseal the bore but it was men only, no women and that's why the male half in tainted. I can forgive the opening part as an unreliable narrator. Jordan had a lot of that in his book, where people believe their right about things because reasons

    It sounds like the writers are butchering the story because they figure book readers are only a small part of the audience or the author of the article is an idiot or both!

    But then wouldn't that completely alter Perrin's character arc? I was sort of looking forward to watching this, now I'm not sure.

    Wheel of Time

    I'm guessing the writers never read the books for them to pull that shit. On the other hand, if Perrin is married, does that mean we won't get him running around moaning about Faile all the time?

    Wait a minute, they already married Perrin and Mat has some kids? What the fuck is that shit.

    I grew up on Eddings, was some of my first fantasy books in the late 80's and 90's. I enjoyed his books. I would say they would be a good starting point for kids to get into fantasy

    Wheel of Time series

    At least one good thing is that Sanderson finishing wheel of time turned me on to his other works. I used to reread the entire wheel of time series when a new book came out. I had to stop that at book 8 or 9. Haven't gone back since I finished it. Another 5 years or so and I might go back and...

    Wheel of Time series

    Yeah he did because I don't think there was any way he could have wrapped up all the story lines in one book. As it is, there are a lot of dangling plotlines that never got wrapped up.

    I'll second bluey. That show is awesome and my kids love it. My kids watch a lot of kids learning tube on YouTube kids. It's probably better for older kids but a 7 month old would probably like the songs. Blippi is another one they watch a lot of too.

    I have 4 shields and love them.

    It's been a while since I've read wheel of time but I don't remember people if the two rivers being black. Darker skinned than Rand if I recall. Why can't they just stick to the source material.
