Even if you *did* read it, you wouldn't learn much, since it doesn't make any *^!#% sense. It's like SRD is taking plot development lessons from Toni Morrison.

He warned us-he said he purposefully picked
this passage because it gives nothing away...

I doubt it--not if it's a first draft

SRD does extensive re-writes, so I'm not looking for this until 2007.

Reading between the lines, I think Donaldson's got bitten by the bug at some point during the
Runes book tour, so I wouldn't be at all surprised if a few months were shaved off the release date for FR. I think a whole year is too much to ask though, we can still rely on SRD to pore over every chapter at least twice.
A very intriguing passage and very well chosen, as I don't really understand any of it. The only thing that did understand was
that, for whatever reason, Linden hasn't given Covenant his ring back.

I think it's pretty clear, now, to whom Lord Foul "put in a word here and there":
the Theomoch. And he/she/they are going to be just as confusing and annoying as the Elohim. Great. Just great.
Many thanks, danlo!

Wow, wild stuff - sure to fuel lots of speculative thinking
Thanks for posting it Danlo.
Oh, and Furl's Fire... there wasn't really any need to spoiler that. Anyone who's read even the first couple chapters of LFB would have seen that by now

True, but someone who hasn't read Runes of the Earth might consider that to be a spoiler.

Oh, yeah, I guess you're right. Hadn't thought of it that way

thanks danlo. That was such a great teaser. I am so primed for the next one. It is pure agony not to have it in my hands right now. I think I will re-read Runes...

Speculation:
I'd be willing to bet the Mahdoubt is the Theomach.
