new to Wot

[kalan]

i just started Wot. i read new spring a few years ago. should i read it again before i start or read it later in the series.

New Spring wasn't published until after book 10, so you might as well dive into the series since you haven't read it yet. You will not be lost without refreshing yourself with the prequel, as The Eye of the World is a viable starting point.

 

I guess I could add that New Spring can be read at any time, but the rest of the series should only be read in order, as none of the other volumes are stand-alone in nature.

I read New Spring after the Dragon Reborn. Perfect timing for me.

 

Welcome to DM.

thanks for the advise

Welcome to DragonMount!!!

 

Since you're just starting the series, I highly suggest you be careful around the threads on our Discussion Boards. That is where people can start and/or join in on discussions about the series and characters from it but for those who are still working on it the threads are also probably going to run into a few spoilers...

 

While you read you may want to check out some of our Social Groups which can be a great way for you to meet and get to know some of the people around the site. You may join as many groups as you'd like and each one has their own draw. All of the groups have some great members, many of us are members of multiple groups, and each group has some fun activities to participate in. If any of the groups appeal to you then feel free to apply to join them. If you have any questions about The Band of the Red Hand, home of music, travel, drinks & food, I should be able to answer them (I'm the Band's Exececutive Officer). If you have any questions about The Black Tower, home of Spam and Madness, I should also be able to answer those (I'm the leader of the Light Faction). Other than those two groups I can't really answer many of your questions but if you post here or in their general board I'm sure one of their members will be more than happy to help answer your questions about their group. From my experiance, many of the groups seem to have a little bit of RP mixed in however do not mainly focus on it.

 

If you are looking for some in depth RP we also have the RP-Groups which, though I have little to no knowledge of, is something many find fun to participate in. If you plan on participating I believe they have a main board you can post any questions to if no one here is able answer them.

 

I hope you have a great time on the site and, from your responses, looks like we'll be see you around the boards soon.

yes, don't worry ! usually people try to pay attention about the spoilers and the social groups have threads about not-related WOT stuff. :)
