I read a few of books in that series a few years ago. Never got to finish the series back then with young ones running around. Thanks for reminding me of it. I think I will ask my Mother-In-Law to borrow them and read it through.

I have been reading the series since the dawn of time (it seems). I bought the first book back in 1994, and now own every book in the series. I have read the series six times now. The last few books he has released have been on at least a two year schedule, so I reread the entire series from book one whenever he releases a new one. I was a bit upset when he released the prequel instead of continuing with book fourteen. I will be really pissed if he up and passes away before he finishes the series. By my estimate, he has at least seven more books to go to finish. (Not including the two more he has announced will be in the "Prequel Trilogy".)

I am not even a fan of fantasy books and when i told someone that, they freaked out and put TEOTW at the top of my rather extensive book list. I purchased it and i have been officially hooked. The characters are wonderfully complex and interesting. Even the ones i am not wild about grow on me until i love them. Robert Jordan is good at coming up with intricate cities each complete with it's own fashions, food, wines, accents, and architecture. My dreams have been affected heavily since beginning the series. If i read before i go to bed i am assured a night filled with thoughts of our beloved Two Rivers boys, deceitful Aes Sedai, aspiring forsaken, and all of the other colorful characters that make these books great. I am almost finished with KOD and i have yet to read a new spring. I plan to reread them again and again, but i would appreciate any suggestions for other fantasy books to devour. I haven't a clue where to start and what i will like, but i am going to need fresh literature soon.

I got through about the sixth book and got tired of it. I thought he had an annoying habit of drawing out what should have been at most 10 pages of an event into 2 or 3 chapters ... or half a book. I enjoyed his world building in the first couple books, but then got bogged down by the number of characters involved. Instead of letting what could be minor characters pass in and out of the storyline, Jordan develops nearly every character he creates. That's great in theory, but after a while, it becomes hard to keep track of everyone. I like to try and predict the course of the book, but with so much detail, it's hard to piece out what is and isn't important.
