Robert Jordan

Robert Jordan was the pen name of James Oliver Rigney, Jr., under which he was best known as the author of the bestselling The Wheel of Time fantasy series. He also wrote under the names Reagan O'Neal and Jackson O'Reilly.
Jordan was born in Charleston, South Carolina. He served two tours in Vietnam (from 1968 to 1970) with the United States Army as a helicopter gunner. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross with bronze oak leaf cluster, the Bronze Star with "V" and bronze oak leaf cluster, and two Vietnamese Gallantry Crosses with palm. After returning from Vietnam he attended The Citadel where he received an undergraduate degree in physics. After graduating he was employed by the United States Navy as a nuclear engineer. He began writing in 1977. He was a history buff and enjoyed hunting, fishing, sailing, poker, chess, pool, and pipe collecting.
He described himself as a "High Church" Episcopalian and received communion more than once a week. He lived with his wife Harriet McDougal, who works as a book editor (currently with Tor Books; she was also Jordan's editor) in a house built in 1797.
Responding to queries on the similarity of some of the concepts in his Wheel of Time books with Freemasonry concepts, Jordan admitted that he was a Freemason. However, "like his father and grandfather," he preferred not to advertise, possibly because of the negative propaganda against Freemasonry. In his own words, "no man in this country should feel in danger because of his beliefs."
On March 23, 2006, Jordan disclosed in a statement that he had been diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis, and that with treatment, his median life expectancy was four years, though he said he intended to beat the statistics. He later posted on his Dragonmount blog to encourage his fans not to worry about him and that he intended to have a long and fully creative life.
He began chemotherapy treatment at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, in early April 2006. Jordan was enrolled in a study using the drug Revlimid just approved for multiple myeloma but not yet tested on primary amyloidosis.
Jordan died at approximately 2:45 p.m. EDT on September 16, 2007, and a funeral service was held for him on Wednesday, September 19, 2007. Jordan was cremated and his ashes buried in the churchyard of St. James Church in Goose Creek, outside Charleston.

Ja sam ODUŠEVLJEN!!! Smejao sam se, cupkao sa fotelje od uzbuđenja, prolazila mi jeza niz kičmu, u par navrata ostao zatečen preokretima koji su se desili… bilo je istinsko uživanje čitati ovo, pogotovo što je nakon ovoliko knjiga došlo da određenog zamora ili bolje reći zasićenja. Očekivao sam da će biti dobro, ali ne ovako dobro!!!
Sanderson je uspeo u serijal da ubaci jednu svežinu eliminišući većinu nedostataka koje su pratili Džordana tamo negde od pete ili šeste knjige. Radnja je postala mnogo kompaktnija, dinamičnija ali što je najvažnije način pripovedanja i likovi su ostali potpuno isti ko da je i ovu knjigu pisao njen idejni tvorac.
I želim da kažem koliko ja volim Egvenu <33333 …. Ono što je uradila/preživela u ovom i prošlom nastavku je WOW!!! Njena poglavlja sam najviše iščekivao.
Verin O.o priznajem, bio sam više nego šokiran ... ni u najluđim predviđanjima nisam to očekivao!!!!!!!

Sanderson je značajno poboljšao stvari, što se je ovde vrlo vidljivo. Radnja (konačno) ide ka svom koncu.

Rekao sam sam sebi da ću 5 zvezdica dati samo knjigama koje me iskreno nasmeju ili rasplaču, ili i jedno i drugo. Ova je uradila oba. Dvanaesta knjiga Točka vremena je super.

Šta da kažem kad ne volim da pišem duge postove?
Poštujem ljude koji za dva dana završe knjigu od 400-500 strana ali ja nisam iz te priče niti bih to voleo, da budem najiskreniji.
Evo već preko godinu dana sam uz Točak vremena. Bilo je uživanja, bilo je smaranja, bilo je velikoooog smaranja ali nikad, apsolutno nikad ni u jednom momentu nisam ni razmišljao da odustanem. Džordan je otišao kod Tvorca i njegov rad je nastavio mladi Sanderson i nadao sam se de će se radnja konstantno dešavati i biće akcije.
To sam i dobio i to sve puta 10.
Oluja na obzorju je jedna od najboljih knjiga epske fantastike koje sam pročitao.
Bojim se da će biti neki spojler ako pišem mnogo o ovoj magičnoj knjizi.
Tuon i Rand, Grendal, Semirhag, čaj sa Verin i da prvi put zaplačem uz knjigu, Rand i Tam...
Ova knjiga je apsolutno neverovatno dobra.
Ali po čemu je ovo jedna od najboljih knjiga?
Po jezivo dobrom psihičkom opisu Randa al'Tora i Egvene al'Ver. Neverovatno dobri opisi njihove borbe, njihove unutrašnje borbe, njihove psihe.
Oluja na obzorju, Točak vremena deo 12-ti je dragulj epske fantastike.

Vrhunski napeto i uzbudljivo, Brandon Sanderson je donio novu energiju u serijal.

Prezadovoljna sam ovom knjigom, i kako je napisana, i u kom pravcu se sve krece i time sto me podsetila na davno procitane starije knjige Tocka vremena u kojima sam najvise uzivala. I sad odmah krecem da citam sledecu :)
