Currently re-reading Eye of the World for the first time.  First read it in the 90's, liking it even better second time around.

For me i first started reading the first  5 books back in 1997 then lost interest in what came next since i was busy with school being a Junior and then being a Senior in 1998.

 

These days I got back into Wheel of Time along with Hyperion where a couple of days ago i was reading Dragon Reborn and just finished it yesterday.

 

Now Im currently busy with Shadow Rising.  

 

Been a long long time since I read the first 5 or 6 books of Wheel of Time.. Cant wait to read the other half of the series later this year when I can. 

In my opinion, your in for a treat.

I am taking the plunge to re-read the whole series.  This is big for me.  As I am a slow reader and have a hard time finding time to commit.  I expect this will take me years to complete but I can't think of a better time then to start now.  Well I actually started 2 weeks ago now?  I finished chapter 8.

I cannot say how much I am enjoying this second reading!!!!  I think I first read The Eye of the World like 20 - 25 years ago?  Since then the whole series has been involved in my life, from beer choices (local company 2 Rivers Beer) to WoT influenced D&D campaigns. 

Anyway, just wanted to share how excited I am about re-reading this beloved series.  I knew I'd enjoy it, I just didn't know how much I'd enjoy it.

The way things seem to be dragging, you have plenty of time to read the first several books before we see the show. 

Well, I'm done the first 2 chapters.  My problem is carving out reading time.

Hi! Good to hear about Sanderson comments.  I am eagerly awaiting the show, hopefully soon?  I only read the books once.  Like, I started reading them about the year 2000? Finished in 2012?  I am a slow reader but not that slow, I read many other books in that time frame.  But I do forget A LOT!

I'm going to start my first re-read of the series, I hope I can finish book 1 by the shows premire.

Anyway just popping to say hi, and I am cautiously optimistic for the show.  I hope we get 14 seasons!

Hi there,

I am new to Dragonmount, stubled accross this site yesterday.  I am eagerly awaiting the TV series.  I started reading the WoT in late 90's?  I am a slow reader, and I read this series while reading other series bouncing back and forth.  Although I am a slow reader I have read a lot of series and I hold this series in the highest of regards. But I have only read it once.  So once and it's been over 20 years since I read the first book. I guess once I finish my current book, I plan to go back for a re-read.  I hope to get book 1 read before the series starts, and it'll take me the whole series to re-read the whole series, if that makes sense.  I am a board gamer too so my reading time is limited.

A quick skim of this forum has shown me how much I have forgotten! 

Favorite things of the series?  There are so many but I really like Perrin Aybarra and his story line, and the aiel.  Wow did I forget how to spell Aiel?

Anyway, hi to all the fans of WoT!

I would be down for 14 seasons! ?
