My 'Wheel of Time' progress

[Grishnak01]

That actually happened to me. Centuries ago when I was deep into LotR, my local library didn't have the Silmarillion. They 'borrowed' it from another library by request.

What about buying used from the Amazon market place or something similar? It's nice to support local bookshops when you can, but that's not always possible or practical. Not sure what country you're all in but in the UK I always get my books from Playtrade (like the Amazon Marketplace) and it's so cheap. I got a copy of Shadowmarch, the first book of Tad Williams' latest series, for about £1.80, included postage.

Finished Lord of Chaos during last night. Would start Crown of Swords either tonight or tomarrow morning.

[mb]

Started Crown of Swords this morning. Am at the beggining section of the Prologue.

 

Would likely be closer to the middle of this series than to the current end when my copy of Towers of Midnight ships.

[Grishnak01]

Just finished Crown of Swords. You'll enjoy it. You can skip a chapter or three... No.. really. I skipped a whole section that had to do with a Forsaken.. I skipped a few sections with the Shaido and I didn't miss a danged thing.

[mb]

This is actually my second time through the series.

[mb]

finished Crown of Swords this morning.

 

seller tells that my copy of Tower of Midnight would ship today; yet not yet any email about it.

[mb]

My copy of Towers of Midnight is on its way.

 

Have not yet started Path of Daggers.

[OptimusPrime]

I skipped a whole section that had to do with a Forsaken.

 

I just reread KoD, and I... skipped all the non-Rand bits.

 

ALL of them. Pointless I know but wth

On my last read-through I read every last word and the only part I wish I'd skipped was when Nyn, Elayne, and the Kin were headed to the farm and everyone was complaining to Elayne...

[mb]

Towers of Midnight arrived yesterday afternoon. Skimmed through various sections.

 

Still have not started Path of Daggers.

[SylvanFox]

I just finished PoD and started Winter's Heart again.

[mb]

Started second time of Path of Daggers Sunday night. Currently read through Chapter 1 this time through.

[water_seeker]

mb, I know this is a reread for you, but it's just a reread through tGS right? ToM will be new for you won't it?

[mb]

Yes, this will be my first time for Towers of Midnight. And yes, I have read through Gathering Storm before.

[mb]

Finished Path of Daggers sometime after midnight.

Started second time of Winter's Heart within same hour. Am at Elayne's section of the Prologue.

Don't hurry. If you manage to take almost a year you won't have to wait :P.

[Crowl Rife]

Yeah just do a chapter a week and you might time it with the release of the last book.

[mb]

Already read through chapter 17.

Was planning on starting my 3rd time though this series several months or so before paperback release of the last book.

 

Would be reading a number of my other books up to that time; after finishing this book.

Finished Towers of Midnight Sunday morning.

Going through a different series right now.

 

Like I told before, would start 3rd time through several months before the paperback release of last book.

Would start with the prequel like I did with my second time through.

Eye of World and Great Hunt would be replaced with their respective Starscape editions.

Would then go through the regular books.
