Wheel Of Time - Page 2

Robert Jordan(or his real name Sidney Rigdon)
is currently battling for his life. He has a rare condition called
amyloidosis or something like that ( I dont remember how it's spelled exactly)

basically, if I remember correctly, his bone is producing a hardening agent that is ending up in his heart. It is getting harder and harder.

He has been making great progress though. He actually has a blog that he uses to keep fans updated on his condition. Anyone interested can check it out at www.dragonmount.com

Yeah, I am a big fan of this series. I hope he lives to tell the end of this great series.

Time Wheel

I have read all eleven that are out. Sadly to say that I did not see the twelve book come out before He passed away. I am hoping that the book was finished or close enough to being done that we can still put and end to this series.

This is my all-time favorite series. I really am sorry Robert Jordan (aka James Oliver Rigney Jr.) did not live to complete the series. It sounds like he did work on the final book up until his death last year. And that his family will see to it that the series is complete.

I have been thinking of starting over at book one and re-reading the series to have it all fresh in my mind by the time number 12 comes out sometime in 2009.
I don't think I am familiar with Brandon Sanderson's work. I guess I should check it out also.

I am glad that it is going to be completed. I would hate to have another non completed series in my bookcase.

I have read some of his work and he does a great job. I am sure that we will get the final book to the Wheel of Time series and enjoy the completion. Besides we have to see if Rand does go crazy.

Time Wheel

I listened to the series on audio, I just couldn't get into it. I liked Lord of the Rings and the Dune series better.

Wheel Of Time

I love the wheel of time series. I have read them so many times. I haven't read the conclusion of the series yet that Brandon Sanderson wrote. The plan is to read the entire series all the way through. Books 7 through 9 make that a daunting task. That's my only issue with the series. He introduced so many minor characters that the story became bloated. The books I mentioned cover hundreds of characters it seems like but only move the storyline ahead a few days. I might read the cliff notes for those three *smile* Other than that just a wonderful series.
