![]() ![]() As I’ve said before, I expect that I’ll lose interest in this stuff at some point, but I’m not there yet.Īs I read the first book, I followed along with the Reading The Wheel of Time blog post series at tor.com. And I’m interested to see where the story goes. I may start reading the second book, The Great Hunt, today, since it looks to be a quiet Sunday, and I have nothing much else to do. Though Pike won an Audie for her version, so maybe I should pick up that version too, and listen to them both… You see how quickly I spiral out of control with these things?) (Which is fine, since that one is also supposed to be pretty good. I assumed that would get me the newer Rosamund Pike version, but instead it got me the older Kate Reading and Michael Kramer version. I also paid $7.50 for the “Audible narration” add-on for the first book, in case I want to re-read it at some point, in audiobook format. I find it hard to imagine myself actually reading my way that far into the series, but, well, I’ve got them in my “official” Kindle library now, at least. But I did finish the first book, so I’m patting myself on the back for that! Meanwhile, Amazon sent me $5 off coupons for most of the series, so I went ahead and bought the Kindle versions of books one through eleven. Per my last post on WoT, this series has activated that part of my brain that likes to go down rabbit holes researching a thing, shopping for stuff, and spending more time on that than actually reading the books. ![]() I noticed yesterday that the books has almost half a million ratings and 20,000 reviews, so I’m pretty sure no one is ever going to stumble across mine on the site, so I might as well link it here. I liked it a lot, and got through it fairly quickly, considering the length of the book and how slowly I usually read. ![]() ![]() I finished reading The Eye of the World yesterday. ![]()
