The Wheel of Time (Robert Jordan) Book • Page 18

Kingkiller felt like Gary Stu fanfic for me. And I wanted to like it. I truly did.

 

Months?? Not years?? :(

 

Kingkiller felt like fluff after Malazan, not gonna lie

 

I read the first nine books of WoT in one month one time. I miss my high school reading speed.

 

I just finished TGH the other day after reading for two months. Even if I read consistently every day I can't see me finishing one of these in less than a month.

Plus I don't like to read novels in a series back to back so I guess I'll be done in a couple years

 

a mere couple of chapters into Eye of the World but already smitten with it. the Tolkien comparisons aren’t unearned, but in comparison the exposition and basic rules/concepts of the world are delivered in a way that i can get all the understanding i need from context clues etc, rather than consulting a glossary or rereading a page a couple of times.

The Wheel of Time TV Series to Start Production in Fall 2019

 

so tl;dr 200 pages in: men suck, women are the ones keeping the world from falling apart and are at best underappreciated for it and persecuted for it at worst.

i thought this was fantasy, not prophecy!

also it is very very good

like a bit ago i read a scene where Rand was gonna apologize to Egwene for being a dick but before he even engaged her she turned to face the fire and he was like “well nvm fuck her then if she’s gonna be like that”. cmon man

 

All of the Emonds Fielders are super frustrating in book 1, except probably Egwene

In book 2 Nynaeve makes some huge strides and becomes one of my favorites. Rand is still irritating though

 

I’m sure most of y’all feel me here

 

Voted Amazon Prime's most anticipated series over Lord of the Rings, I'm hoping for GoT level budget but I know we gotta earn that... If executed correctly then it could be one of the best fantasy tv series ever.

 

ok if this show actually becomes a thing I promise I'll read the books

 

agree, I should get back into it, a tv series will motivate me to do it.

 

After an extended break I'm getting back into WoT, started book 10 last night.

 

We have our first piece of casting.

 

Oooooooooooh

 

Wow. Solid choice

 

Good to see such a good actress take on the role. With Judkins, Pike and now Sanderson's name getting more recognition; I can only get more excited

 

Oh wow. That is PHENOMENAL casting. I have a love / hate relationship with the books in this series - I love the first few but always end up throwing in the towel around Book 4. I was looking forward to this series, but that announcement has made my anticipation skyrocket.

 

Literally who I pictured reading the books. Love it.

 

whoa now you have my attention

 

Made a WoT tv thread to keep them separate. Hopefully fill it with more news soon!

Man I wish I liked this as much as some people. I just finished book 10 and these last 3 books have been an absolute chore to get through. I wonder if my choice to listen to them was a mistake, maybe i'd feel differently reading them? I don't know. But it's impossible for me to keep all of these female characters straight and it just feels like sometimes he'll spend what feels like a zillion years talking about stuff that to me doesn't really move the plot forward at all.
