Wheel of Time

I am a fan of (the late) Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time fantasy series. I even wrote a few “theory” articles for it*.

The Trolloc Paradox, the Blight and Eschatology
Serving the Dark One is morally OK? Or how I learned to stop worrying and love Ishamael
Serving the Dark One is morally OK? or Struggle over Suicide
The Wheel of Time is a Hollow Sphere!

Here are some other theories I like:

Cosmology of the Wheel and the Dark One’s Prison
If the Dark One wins…
Elan Morin Tedronai’s Philosophy
Reality, Tel’aran’rhiod, and Winning Tarmon Gai’don
The Dark One can’t win: a proof
World Diffraction and it’s usage
The grand unified theory of WOT
The Not so Legendary Age of Legends
There is no Wheel of Time and LTT is the DO!

* Before 31 August, most of these articles were hosted at the Wheel of Time fan-site wotmania.com. It was pulled because its owner no longer had the time to look after it. Fortunately, I managed to salvage all my articles beforehand and save them in pdf format, though presumably many others were lost. Though the site’s owner motives for closing down the fan-site are understandable, the manner in which it was done – little forewarning, with countless man-hours of theory-writing and commenting now presumably lost forever – was highly unsatisfactory.

  • About S/O


    Sublime Oblivion focuses on resource depletion, climate change, and the geopolitics of the coming age of scarcity industrialism. Will the world system transition to a sustainable development path in time - or will it collapse into a death spiral of Malthusian crises and resource wars?



    Da Russophile is about Russia's politics, society, and demography. Its aim is to clear up the many Orientalist misconceptions surrounding the country.
