So... Larry Send a noteboard - 11/10/2012 07:05:41 PM
that I spent nearly $309 on one series of books, enjoyed the hell out of the series, found a cool online community, seen the death of a beloved author, and the rise of his successor.


Did you get your money's worth? :P

So when the book/series ends, what will it have all meant? Larry - 08/10/2012 09:47:49 PM 2221 Views
Years of enjoyment. What else do you expect from fiction? Marshall - 08/10/2012 10:17:30 PM 1178 Views
I expect a lot from fiction, to be honest Larry - 09/10/2012 02:43:59 AM 1224 Views

Yeah, the use of my time does matter Larry - 09/10/2012 02:45:15 AM 1155 Views
Not sure I'd call it mindless darius_sedai - 09/10/2012 02:53:00 AM 1090 Views
Well, it is a bit more complex than a D&D novel Larry - 09/10/2012 02:55:40 AM 1107 Views
I'm not really a huge fiction reader to begin with darius_sedai - 09/10/2012 11:25:34 PM 1018 Views
I've noticed that quite a few here/wotmania have not been big fiction (fantasy) readers Larry - 11/10/2012 05:48:02 AM 1126 Views

I like the TV series ... It's gritty darius_sedai - 13/10/2012 11:44:06 PM 981 Views
Well... it's a bit late in the game... DomA - 09/10/2012 02:04:16 AM 1313 Views
True, but it's never too late to ask people such questions Larry - 09/10/2012 02:49:28 AM 1013 Views
I'm not sure... DomA - 09/10/2012 06:03:08 AM 1032 Views
Well, we may be in closer agreement then Larry - 09/10/2012 06:43:50 PM 1093 Views

I am now visualizing WoT as a telenovela adaptation Larry - 09/10/2012 06:59:11 PM 990 Views
everything about Lanfear screams TeleNovela! darius_sedai - 11/10/2012 04:38:03 AM 942 Views
Por ella, soy Luisa Therin? Larry - 11/10/2012 05:44:32 AM 1033 Views
All of the names would have to be longer and more pompous Tom - 11/10/2012 03:54:30 PM 856 Views
Not in this particular telenovela adaptation Larry - 11/10/2012 05:48:06 PM 1263 Views
It is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Tom - 09/10/2012 02:21:20 PM 1091 Views
It also has Faulknerian allusions Larry - 09/10/2012 07:04:55 PM 1109 Views
BTW, did you see the Folio Society's color-coded The Sound and the Fury? Tom - 10/10/2012 08:06:18 PM 1320 Views

The One Power doesn't seem that unique or innovative to me. Tom - 11/10/2012 04:05:06 PM 971 Views
No, but I'll keep it in mind for the future when I have more money to spare Larry - 11/10/2012 05:49:52 AM 913 Views
It sold out fast. They might reprint it, though. Tom - 11/10/2012 03:45:20 PM 896 Views
Hopefully, that or it won't be more than $200 when I do have the money to spare Larry - 11/10/2012 05:53:20 PM 1156 Views

For me, yes. Macharius - 11/10/2012 07:45:25 PM 899 Views
I would think for most the money spent wasn't too bad Larry - 11/10/2012 08:07:49 PM 1259 Views
I got my money's worth, oh yes. MightyYT - 12/10/2012 07:59:58 PM 1042 Views
I'm not sure it means anything. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/10/2012 08:10:45 PM 1118 Views
