No doubts, no uncertainties, no fears, no questions left. Puh, I always feel quite a bit empty after finishing. When I know, there won't come more. Finished, over ...!
Didn't most people think the same thing after Farseer trilogy? And then after LST? And again after TM? And for a fourth time after DH?

But no, I'm not sad. Yes, there are probably still stories left untold, but as Michael Ende wrote "[...] that is another story and shall be told another time.".

So far I've seen 2 names that are different in LST and RWC. RWC translation has left almost all names untranslated. The differences btween LST translation and RWC translation that I could find (but please bear in mind that I haven't read the Dutch translation of LST, just summaries on internet!):
Brashen is called 'Bresker' in LWT
Chalced is called 'Kwarts' in LWT

Both series do have 'Beijerstad' for 'Bingtown' and
[+]Spoiler
IJsvuur for Icefyre (not sure he appears in the first 2 books, so between spoilertags)
though.

Farseer trilogy names are almost all translated:
Veritas Ziener (Verity)
Regaal Ziener (Regal)
Vlijm Ziener (Shrewd)
etc etc

But perhaps this is source for a new thread and not part of a discussion on BoD



You know nothing, Jon Snow
