Wheel of time.

Started by Sarlock11 pages

I had always heard it was going to be a 13 book series. I also watched a small thing that he had said on a TV network where he said that. I guess he is though, cause New Spring kinda makes it 13 books...

But yea, I can't wait for some action to start. I like the politics, but there's been too much of that, too little action. Not enough of anything actually happening. In all honesty, the 6th book was the last book that I actually found great. It was a refreshing change, but it continued in book 7, and has been like that since then... So I'm hoping the next book changes things.

Could be 13 if you include the prequel. But there are too many storylines, that need to be tied up. From what we've all learned, Jordan does like to go into great detail breaking down each political and wartime battles. As he said, there are 2 long running threads in this story that are going to be tied up.

Apparently, after Knife of Dreams, he's already been laying down foot notes or something for the 12th already...the man works quick lol. But he's taking some time off for a few months.

Then im hoping Tarmon Gaidon shall finally be here...which in my opinion could last for 2 books....nothing but straight solid action.

Ok...so, there was an interview posted at Dragonmount.com from Robert Jordan himself, who said that the series will be stopping at book 12.

He'll be wrapping everything up in the final book, even if that means the hardcover will be 1500 pages...yikes.

Lets just pray that he doesn't let the 12th book end with the start of Tar'mon'Gaidon, please let us see it.

I came across a prologue fro Knife of Dreams by Robert Jordan, called : Embers Falling on Dry Grass.

I have uploaded it here (use the html file after unziping):

Thanks Morridini, i'll be sure to dl that and read it later on this week...can't do it at work because my boss would know if I dl'd anything, or for that matter installed winzip lol.

The first review is up...and reading it, I think the next edition may be just as incredibly amazing as the 5th book was. It sounds like a lot of loose ends are going to be tied off and lots of characters will lose their lifes. I can't wait, 2 more months 💃

There's going to be an ending... Jordan has said himself that the book after the new one (Knife of Dreams) is going to be the end. It's a 13 book series. It's not short, but it's a damn good read.

Hell yes!! ...I now FINALLY have the new book....can't wait to get stuck in...droolio

I have returned to this thread 😄

Man its good to be back here, I've just ordered KOD an hour ago. God I can't wait till it's here. Hell I'm so excited I can't even do my uni work thats due in tomorrow, a 1200 to 1500 word discussion on an extract from a book of my choice Guess what I chose. 😆
