The two almost coincide with each other. IMO I think the internet helped the Wheel of Time's popularity grow much more then it would have otherwise. I think the internet has also done that for a number of newer authors as well. What do you think?


internet. When I did read it I did have my husband that I could talk to and then my sons as they read it around the same time but I seemed to be a little more intrigued and have more questions and theories than they did and was so excited when I ran across Wotmania. At the time some one gently told me that I might want to finish the books before I looked too far into the site as there were a lot of spoilers on the board. I took their advice but it wasn't long before I was back and loaded for bear with my questions and ideas.

The internet had a big impact in my case. Considering how many people have come to wotmania and dragonmount over the years I think I am not alone.

As for other authors, I think the internet has been a big boon for many. So many more opportunities for word of mouth to spread.
