Wheel of Time

[Filicireg]

Any of you actually read the entire series? What do you think of it?

 

[Winters_Sorrow]

Well no-one's read the entire series as it's not finished yet.

But I get your meaning - I actually stopped after book 10 and haven't read the latest one yet, which apparently is more of a return to form.

Basically my feelings are that the first two were pretty ordinary, books 3-5 were good, books 6-7 were ok but starting to grate and books 8-10 were pointless and did little to advance the story.

I may return to the series once it is completed just to "complete the journey" as it were.

i stopped at ten. liked the start, got bored from 5 onwards.

For me it became a bit Ho Hum after Book 7.

Still sticking with the series but a classic case of overextending the plot.

While I am still enjoying the story! Hopefully Jordan will be able to finish the series...

 

[Filicireg]

He does seem to be dragging it all out a bit...

 

[dwndrgn]

Well, I've read them all. Once (or if) it is finished I'll probably re-read them just for continuity.

 

[Jason_Taverner]

I've read 1-10 twice and book 11 is a real improvement to 8-10.

The first books were good but this story was just not long enough for 12 books and it is too bad the author never realized this before now.

I personally loved them all... but I seem to be really out voted, in all places...

 

[perrin]

jordan got me back in to reading i give him that...13 books is not enough to finish the series

 

[The_Dragon]

I like the serie but it takes to long for it to be translated into swedish... there is two swedish books for every english so I have red 21 books now... I hope that the next book will come out soon who do you like to reed about if you only con chose by the main character? I don't know who I wold chose... probobly Mat Couton or Rand al'Thor.

 

[^jordy^]

21 books seem too many for me... God, I've red 11 and I'm already tired of the series!

 

[Talysia]

I've only just started to read this series, and even though opinions seem to be divided, I think I'll stick with it. It's been a while since I read any sagas, and what I've read so far seems enjoyable enough.

 

[Jason_Taverner]

it is good the first few are excellent but it drops off towards the end, although book 11 is a good return to form

 

[The_Dragon]

do any of you think that he get his hand back?? I think he does, becous he has to die to live, and becous he can still fell it.

 

[thinbalion]

I've read all 11 books, and re-read the first 7. I plan on attempting to re-read all 11 by the time the 12th book comes out (I do mean all 11, going to start w/ book 1).

That was what i was going to do! yeah i think he has dragged the series out for too long

 

[YoYo]

How ambitious... Well, good luck then, because I really can't do it... I'm looking forward to the end of the series and in the next (at least) one year I won't be able to re-read anything...

 

[The_Dragon]

I'm also going to read them one more time. It would be my third time I read the series...
