  1. The only word to describe me right now is "melancholy"

    The Wheel of Time is in my opinion the greatest story ever told. And now it is finished. I will never again read another Wheel of Time book without knowing what will happen next. He wrote more than just a story. What you he is in the language of Thom Merrillin "Exquisite".


    I loved it, totally loved it...especially Demandred and Lan.....

     

    It was all just so good!

  2.  

    I would love hardcover copies of the UK editions by Orbit Books, with just the symbol of the wheel. Very classy. I have a few of them in paperback.

     

    Are they available in hardcover? I did a quick search the other day and could only find paperbacks.

    yep, although i've only got 12 and 13 in british hardback. i've got 5-9 in american hardback...book 1 in american paperback and books 1-11 in uk paperback...oh yeah and new spring and the guide in uk paperback.

     

    I'm pretty sure you can nab up the british hardcovers of amazon.co.uk, and yes they do look pretty damn classy ;) but as scrappy and "wrong" as they are, the american ones will always have a special place in my heart, i plan to get them all by some point.

     

     

    And Mr Aries, I'M SORRY! i don't hate french folk like the standard british typecast, hell i've even got a few french mates! Scotish folk are normaly a bit more tollerant of other cultures, plussssss the whole Britain-France thing was REALY actualy England-France...it was all about thrones and whatnot, we dont care who sits high and mighty downsouth as long as we get our mountains and sheep.....

     

    not realy, but yeah....

  3. right, ok hands down the french win the crappieness contest.

     

     

    And yeah ok the details on TSH are horrific yeah, but i loved it mostly for the scenery,a nd the wagon....just seeing that cover takes me right back to old skool WoT books that i loved more than life itself.....details are pretty mince though :/

  4. most of the US covers are mega-out-of-proportion, even the cover for aCoS and tEoTW have horrible proportions, i mean how the hell does rand lean so far foreward and still stay up? and why does moirane look like an ugly cow.

     

    worst by far though is the cover for WH, which completely ruined my veiw of perrin.

     

    Good US covers are tFoH, TSR (loved it), aCoS, tPoD, tEoTW, tGH, CoT.

     

     

    And lets be honest right, you cannot dislike the front cover for tDR, stone of tear, sword that is not a sword? the only bad part is the awefull ishy face in the top corner,...oh and perrin... which yeah kinda ruins it. But i think sweet did a good job for the most part, and i for one kinda wish US covers were avilable in UK, i only actualy own half the US covers but i wish it was more.
