Wheel of Time

Robert Jordan is an incredible author whose masterful style permeates his series- The Wheel of Time. Jordan has a very nice style filled with description and detail. His story is filled with memorable characters countless prophecies which are realized in completely unexpected ways. This series is an absolute must for a complete fantasy collection.

All Great Books. There will be a Final Book (#12 Memory of Light), Even with Jordans Death

I enjoyed all his books, I have read all published books to date (Books 1-11) I say keep reading, even though sometimes Jordan rambles on, and such, even what some say is a Average/Poor book from his. It still is head and shoulders about all written Series save a hand full on equal par. HOWEVER, I DO HAVE VERY BAD NEWS, BUT ALSO GREAT NEW FOR WHEEL OF TIME READERS, AT LEAST WITH REGARDS TO HIS FINAL BOOK #12. Please read the following passage all readers need to know both bits of information.

Robert Jordan (this is his publishing name, not his real)....his real name is JAMES OLIVER RIGNEY, JR. Here is a link so you can read it all(www.dragonmount.com/RobertJordan/). James Rigney (aka Robert Jordan) passed away in September of 2007 (last fall)....however there is still good news for all the readers. The whole staff and editors have the notes and spoken ideas Jordan left while in the hospital the last few days before he passed on. The Book will be named A Memory of Light! The family and editors have hired a Fantasy writer to finish the Series and last book. This Writer (Brandon Sanderson) was a personal friend, and was mentored by Jordan too over the years. He will also have Robert Jordan's wife... Harriet.. helping (she edited and helped on all the books with him). They say on their web-site that they are shooting for Late Fall or Early winter (Sept-Nov) in 2009 to have the last book in the Wheel of Time Series on the shelf. This will be called as I said Memory of Light and will be book 12 and will finish the Wheel of Time. This is what they our saying at least, and they know the book might be BIG, and very hard to get all plots and everything in place...... so the Last Battle can be fought....but they will do it, so they say. I really enjoyed all the books, and I know with all the help from his wife (who knows a man better then his wife) this will be worthy of Robert Jordan's Memory and Life.

Enough already

This boxed set is excellent as is boxed set #2. The writing is superb; The characters mesmerizing. I also like a good epic fantasy. However, as you get into boxed set #3 it starts getting so verbose that you can skip three pages at a time while he describes a particular dress in agonizing detail. And that's just one dress! If there are five women in the room skip about 15 pages! I started reading these in my forties. I am now in my fifties and worried that I won't live to find out the ending! Personally, I don't think he has one and maybe never will because now, apparently, he's started a new series. Aaarrrgghhh!

As much as I want to, I can't stop reading these books.

The Wheel of Time series was first recommended to me by a friend. When I first started this series, I found the writing to be terrible and the story boring. But I made myself read on, and I'm so glad that I did. As the books progress all the characters grow and change. Although I still don't really like the way these are written, I can't stop reading Wheel of Time. They suck you in and keep you there until you've finished.

I HIGHLY recommend these books.

These books are long...

Why do I torture myself? I love to read, especially fantasy, but I am a slow reader. I just finished the third book last night, and read a few/several pages a night before I go to bed. I took me over a year to finish it! The books are very long winded and repetitive. Jordan has his characters spend hundreds of pages just traveling from town to village to city. Throughout all the books I hear myself yelling "Get on with it!' a lot. These books could easily be cut in half and be much improved. One thing I hate is dream sequences, and these books have tons of them. I do have to say though, I will read the 4th book, I guess I'm a glutten for punishment.
