Torrannor posted:Imho, the Wheel of Time world is generally a more optimistic setting than Scadrial. Sanderson was a good fit for WoT, there was no explicit sex or rape or too graphic violence even before he took over. And no creepy sexual fetishes, either. Tell me more about the magic collars that compel a channeler's obedience and the whole power-exchange marriage that Lan and Nynaeve end up in.  Like, it's fair to say that WoT isn't super creepy or anything, but Jordan definitely wrote his kinks.

Sab669 posted:It's a little cheesy, but I don't think it's any worse than any other "fantasy terminology". I've seen people complain about "Allomancy" when reading Mistborn and I was just like, is that any worse than Pyromancy or Cryomancy? No, but those are also bad.  All the "-mancy" names for magic are dumb anyway, since as a suffix it actually indicates a method of divination. Necromancy meant to fortell the future by communing with the dead, not to make zombies. My favourite is Oenomancy, which is to fortell the future by getting really loving drunk.
