Here's my insight - the ending to The Last Dark SUCKED and it was ALL LINDEN'S FAULT!
Kidding!

Our work here is done.
On a more serious note
: I know I posted something in the SRD E'fest Q&A thread that I had to spoiler. I'll go in and fetch it in a few minutes...

Gives us something to refute
Since we all know that they don't, and even on their bad days are better than most of the stuff out there...

Even though, much like the Creator in the Last Chronicles, I have ignored my creation for quite some time, this is still my message board, and I can make as many obnoxious posts as I like.
Seriously though, just joking around, dude.

I agree wholeheartedly with that. Even though I suffered through much of The Last Chronicles, I still thoroughly enjoyed SRD's writing as a whole.
There were many poetic moments that I deeply appreciated.
It's just that I can't help it if a number of things pissed the hell out of me while reading it!

And "the"...annoying..."but" is getting to be a bit much. I'm starting to get pissed off by commas and some other punctuation.
Guess we can't live without those, though.
Still...is it really so terrible to read Linden's formication a few times...something that happens to almost everyone at least every now and again for their whole lives [not to mention the fairly large group that is practically tortured by it for a long period]...but no problem reading the various fornications in most books that happen to characters very often, but almost every reading person totally never? /whistle

The name of this forum is incorrectly typed, though. Needs to be:
The Entire Chronicles of Thomas Covenant Experience Starring Linden Avery

For me ,Its always been an interior dialogue; Man vs Himself. By the Last Chronicles It became clear that it wasn't " What" was the problem..but it was " How" that was the problem. A man learned that it was How he thought ,,that needed to change,,because the Way he Was Thinking,,was what enabled despair all along.
You only live once folks..so why dwell in despair, fear and hate?

This is such a perfect post.
