The internet never ceases to amaze. A truly fantastic insight from some guy mourning the loss of Robert Jordan (creator of an unfinished >10,000 page epic):

This is absolutely horrible I've been reading the series since I was 16-17 :( I loved it so much I own every book 1 - 11 and I've been re-listening to them all on mp3 at work :( I think his work is an absolute masterpiece that will stand the test of time and be read and loved by generations to come. I am deeply saddened by this news and I do hope that through his wife and cousin his final vision is realized. I'm on the phone ending my relationship with my girlfriend right now and I saw this and I am far more devastated by this news than this break-up. This is utterly terrible for all who enjoyed his work.
