Post subject:  Wheel of Time - finally ends!
So this endless series has finally reached a conclusion. :)


No kindle edition, though, only hardcover, so I am holding out for the ebook version. :td: :td: :td: :td: :td: :td: :td: :razz: :razz: :razz: :razz: :razz: :razz:

You have to wonder why publishers pull stuff like that in this day and age? I mean - after waiting for so many years, waiting a few more months for the ebook is no big deal. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Wonder how many sales they will lose as people go to the library or get pirated versions instead? (note - I am NOT advocating book piracy here, only pointing out that it does exist. Though I do advocate use of your local library. :) ).

I've never even started WoT cause I didn't want to get caught up in a never-ending series.

Is it worth the effort?

Yes and no. Some individual scenes are as good as anything out there. But you have to read through literally thousands of pages of braid tugging (a trait many of the many bad tempered women seem to share) and clothing descriptions to get to the good parts. The original author lost control of his story IMHO and it just grew and grew and grew...

...sadly Robert Jordan passed away before he could finish the series, but he apparently made his best attempt to write down notes, scenes, outlines, etc. in order that the the story could be finished by another author. The author chosen was Brandon Sanderson (whose own Mistborn Trilogy is pretty enjoyable).

I think the most notoriously bad part was Crossroads of Twilight which had NO (not even a bit) of forward plot movement. So you have this huge fat book which actually took place timewise before the book which came before it, but centered around some of the other characters. :faint: Might have the most scathing reviews of any bestseller in history at Amazon. :shock:

Doesn't sound too encouraging, overall.

Think I'll pass on it, for now. ;)
