Title: How can you retire well as an author?
Review: The best way is to keep your climaxes long and drawn out. Jordan has managed to do this over the last three or four books now, and he shows no sign of lessening the pace. Of course, he does this by stopping all action is his books and splintering the story off into a dozen or so fragments so you have to buy all twenty of his books to get a complete story. He's discovered how to avoid the weakness that develops when you have a set of novels set in a fantasy world:some people can't be bothered to buy all the books---they just buy the ones that interest them. By sticking all his novels together, he can make you shlep through all 7,000 pages or so. Great marketing, anyway.
