| Re: Have you stopped reading Wheel of Time? Four days for each book? Wow, that's pretty quick! I remember reading through books 2,3, and 4 fairly quickly (I can't remember in how many days) although I slowed down on the later books. I'm not entirely sure why that was - perhaps it was all the POV switching. When I do my next reread, perhaps if/when the last book comes out, I'll read them much slower too.Once you get into them, though, they really do draw the reader in, in my opinion. Especially the early books. |

| Re: Have you stopped reading Wheel of Time? I take three or four days to read them, too, normally (same when I reread, I pretty much do it to the detriment of all else). But I have to admit, Book 10 and the second half of Book 11 struggled to maintain my interest. |

| Re: Have you stopped reading Wheel of Time? Stoppped reading WoT?! Never! I LOVE the WoT series. To address the too much detail issue; I found that this enabled me to become completely absorbed almost a part of the story. The inconsequensial characters are like those people you meet in your daily life and never see agian- they can sometimes have a profound effect on the out come of situations. I can understand the length of his books can sometimes be frustrating but then they save me alot of money on new books as there is always something i missed the first, second and third time I read them. RJ was a genius. ![]() |

| Re: Have you stopped reading Wheel of Time? Oh Wisdom, i agree, while it can be long at times, its when you reread them, that you realise the depth of his brilliance. the world is a darker place without him. |
