Reading “The Gathering Storm” by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson

View Comments 16 March 2010

This is book twelve, actually written by Brandon Sanderson based on notes from the recently deceased Robert Jordan.

What’s called “epic fantasy” when hero’s were real hero’s :-)

A nice indulgence you might think… Yes. But there’s also an intentional (of course) point. Do you intentionally choose what you watch on tv, films you see at the cinema and read in books and magazines? Rather than watch what just happens to be on.

What? No. You don’t…..

Surely you don’t let all the brainwashing and mindless drivel in? You make a choice don’t you? Rather than let others make that choice for you.

So if you are making a choice, what do you choose for?

I choose for inspiration, amongst other things. Reading about hero’s doing impossible things. Changing the world for the better, helping people make a difference in their own lives…

What are you intentionally choosing for?
