RIP Robert Jordan

Sad day for epic fantasy fans. Robert Jordan passed away today, leaving his great work, The Wheel of Time, unfinished. I know the series lost its way around Book 7, but for 6 books it was the best fantasy epic around, IMHO.

George R.R. Martin, the other author with an on-going epic fantasy series, wrote a nice eulogy on his website.

On a selfish note, hopefully Martin finishes A Song of Ice and Fire before he passes on as well.

The wheel of time turns, and ages come and go...
