This is sad news indeed!
I checked his blog just yesterday and read that he is still fighting and everything looked good so this is very unexpected and sad news.
I read all the books in the series so far and was always hoping he'd manage to finish the tale somehow.
I guess somebody will finish it, but I doubt it'll be the same quality as the first 11 volumes. Finishing a story as complex as WOT takes a lot of genius. Even somebody who has all the details of how the sotry is supposed to run won't be able to write it easily...
I'm going to read it anyway, just to know how it all ends, but I#m not getting my hopes too high...
R.I.P. Mr. Jordan!
