I seem to recall RJ saying it was his intention to release the last book as a single book even if needed a new form of book binding to be invented or sold on library carts. If I recall correct, then I can’t help but feel this is NOT at all what he intended to happen.

I can wait for it be bound into a single handcover book. In fact, if that simple intent can’t be honoured, I have to wonder about the story line itself. 

Maybe I can do without “book 12″ entirely.

Anyone who believes this staggered three volume release is being done for anything other than profit is kidding themselves. If it is not about profits release all three volumes at once, don’t wait for the money that will be generated from three separate hard cover and paperback releases for each volume. This is not about Jordan or his loyal fans. This is about TOR milking it for everything it is worth. This is a slap in the face to every Sci/FI and Fantasy reader that has supported TOR through the years.

Releasing this in three volumes is a terrible and sad idea. Readers of the wheel of time series have been waiting 15 plus years to a conclusion to this extraordinary series. Now you are asking them to wait three more yea`rs. This is all being done in the name of profit. Jordan did not want it to go done this way. I am deeply saddened by TOR’S greedy decision.

BOYCOTT ALL TOR AND SANDERSON BOOKS UNTIL SERIES IS COMPLETE!! i’m sorry but if this was really for the fan we’d have heard from TOR books, Harriet and Sanderson on such an OBVIOUS negative response. Consider this Harriet has no control over this book other then an editorial opinion if TOR books decides to replace something they can and will. More then likely there was a large advance granted to mr jordan upon the start of the book and unless the book is finished Harriet more then likely would have had to return that money due tyo the book being unfinished. Sorry folks but medical bills aren’t cheap and when some Corporation has you under contract you have no choice but to at least pretend you have some sort of control. Face it this is a business and the world is in a recession what is the garunteed way to bring in SOME MONEY? Plump up a story and add meaningless splits and’ milk it for everything it is worth, Corporate GREED at its finest again. don’t punish Harriet and not buy the books but BOYCOTT ANY OTHER WORK BY TOR OR SANDERSON UNTIL THE LAST VOLUME IS COMPLETE. WHO KNOWS THEY MIGHT EVEN HAVE IT FINISHED BY NEXT YEAR IF ALL THE FANS BOYCOTT BOOK PURCHASING FROM THEM. PLEASE CONTINUE TO EXPRESS YOUR ANGER UNTIL WE HEAR A TRUTHFUL ANSWER FROM ANYONE OF THESE KNUCKLE HEADS.

I can keep going if this isn't prrof enough
