Dexter and the Fall of a Brilliant Author
Sep. 28th, 2007 08:23 pmTwo more days until the Season 2 Premiere of DEXTER.
So excited. I haven't really been unable to stop watching Season 1 since I bought it. I think I've watched it over at least three times between myself, my dad and uncle watching it. Soooo gooood.
In a more depressing avenue. About two weeks ago I started to re-read The Wheel of Times series which was written by the author who called himself Robert Jordan. There are eleven books in the series as of right now. He was writing one more, the last and final book. In late 2005 Robert Jordan got sick with some rare blood disease. Last week he died. I think he was only 50-something. 57 maybe. Something like that. A sad sad ordeal. And he loved this series he was writing and just as it was coming to a conclusion he was unable to finish it.
I hear that as he got sicker he wrote notes and relayed the plot to his wife and friend, but its not known if they'll finish the book.
I found it kind of terrible that a week after I start re-reading the series Robert Jordan dies. :( I'm very sad. I loved this series and personally feel its on the level of Lord of the Rings, just less commercially accessible.
