Interview #333: Brandon Sanderson’s Blog: WoT: LORD OF CHAOS, Entry #2

Brandon Sanderson

Anyway, as for Book Six, it was a powerful read. Lews Therin was my favorite character of the book—his interactions with Rand are wonderful. We are left wondering just how much is insanity and how much is another man’s soul in Rand’s head. Each conversation gives us information about the setting, personality about Rand, and tension for the plot as we wonder about his sanity. Not to mention the occasional laugh at the exchanges, sorrow regarding Therin’s tragedy, and a sense of mystery as Rand tries to find out just how much he can interact with Therin. Masterfully done.

A second response comes with the ending. It’s sometimes easy to skip over this ending in light of the dramatic occurrences at the end of Books two and three, and yet I found this to be one of the most tense of the entire series. It was very well foreshadowed and marvelously executed.
