The Wheel of Time

I want to know if anyone else has read the fantastic 'Wheel of Time' series by Robert Jordan. Theres been ten books so far and most if not all have been best sellers. I'm looking for information on the eleventh book, favorite charactors, best book and the like.

I have read all of the books and think they are great, it is difficult to pick a favourite character, but it would be Lan, Moiraine, Rand al'Thor, Perrin, Min, Mat or Nynaeve, even Aram is quite cool.

The are several site theoryland
this one list the prequels to wheel of time and on the questions of the week answered by RJ there are links to other stuff too.

Nice a reply. Perrin's my favourite charactor but I see your point there are almost no crap charactors in any of the books.

I am reading the series right now. It's really good, although I'm having trouble convincing my friends to read it.

Just use one of them in hardback to beat your friends about the head until they agree to read them.

I think that Rand is a better character then Mat. My list goes Perrin, Lan, Rand, Mat. Also, if you want go get technical about it, it's book 0(or -1). It comes before book 1. According to Robert Jordan, right from his mouth, there is going to be 2 more prequels, and 2, possibly 3, more books.

Rand's more powerful but Mat's just funny to read about, poor guy never gets a break

I found that in book 6-7 he wasn't funny to read about. Even boring.

Mat is the funniest

But I like Perrin the best.

anyone read the "New Spring" book? I was kinda disappointed that Jordan wrote a prequel instead of finishing the series...

I have read it. I found it interesting. He has 4 more wheel of times books lined up(possibly 5) two more prequels and the last two of the series. If he can't shorten it down to two books to end it all fof, it will be in three.
