Brandon Sanderson for aMoL

What are the opinions of the Kin on Sanderson being chosen to complete A Memory of Light?

I'm not familiar with his stuff, so, honestly... I dunno. Maybe I'll get time to read a thing or two here in the next little bit.

 

It would be really cool if he split the book, so RJ's stuff remained RJ's stuff. Put a big separation and then a page with a note saying that was RJ's work and this is not. *shrugs* We'll know the difference, anyway, so it's not like they'd be preserving the integrity of the book. They would be preserving the integrity of RJ's work, though. It's what I would do, anyway...

Well it is my understanding that several chapters were near completion, and almost everything else is outlined in notes/dictaion by RJ.  Plus the ending RJ meant is known by Harriet.

True, but we all know that the road to the end can lead in many different ways and still end in the same place. He's going to catch flack for it, either way, because he's not RJ and can't be RJ. I wouldn't even try, if I were him. *shrugs*

 

That might be an interesting project for the Scribes chapter... give everyone the same notes, the same characters and the same plot line and see how different the stories come out... *ponders*
