Wheel of Time book 12: A Memory of Light

<< < (10/12) > >>

Buttfranklin:
12th book is good.  Not super good, but neither has any book in the WoT series been exceptional.

Really, you get over that it's a different writing style from previous books pretty fast.  Same plot, same characters, same setting, and the only major difference style wise is that Sanderson gives a tighter, faster-paced product than RJ did.

Nodaisho:
I guess I'll have to get around to reading the rest of the series. I got up to the last Robert Jordan book by virtue of needing something to read before bed, and each book lasting me about a week. Not reading much now, though. I still have a few books I need to read that shouldn't have taken me nearly this long to get around to.

StaedlerMars:
I've suggested to friends to read the first three books, read the wikipedia article summaries on 4-11 and then read 12.

ONE HOUR AND TWENTY MINUTES UNTIL I LEAVE WORK AND PICK UP THE NEW BOOK. HOLY CRAP SO EXCITED!

No way, man. Lord of Chaos is SO damn good -- Dumai's Wells is a bloodbath. If you REALLY need to skip the books, don't bother with wikipedia. Read Leigh Butler's re-reads on tor.com. She summerized every single chapter (up through the end of Winter's Heart, currently) and provides commentary on them all. They're really good, so skip wikipedia.

mberan42:
Read the prologue and the first 15 chapters last night. Very good. I've been waiting for something like the end of chapter 13 for a LONG time (even before/disregarding what happened in The Gathering Storm).
