The majority of the article is focused on the interview with little attention given to the biography. However, the space about the books he has written uses nice filler text instead of just listing them. The beginning of this article is useful for the most basic information about Robert Jordan. It gives his real name, where he was born, and his most distinguished accomplishments, but…
