Okay, just wondering. How are you going to enjoy the final novel of this epic series? Questions:
1. When did you start reading WOT? Year and what were you doing in life.
I started in 1993. I was a freshman in college and looking for diversionary reading to contrast with The Confessions of St. Augustine, The Book of the Courtier, The Iliad, and a whole lot of Greek tragedies.2. Where is your life now and where will it be in early 2012, when aMoL comes out?
No one can say where he will be in early 2012. Now, however, I'm practicing law.3. Will you pick up the book the first day it is out? If no, when will you?
I order books through amazon, usually, so they will likely do that "you get it the day of release thing" anyway. If not, I'll get it a couple of days later.4. Will you read it as quickly as possible or linger with it since it is the end of an era (why/why not)?
I really just want to find out how it ends. The series has been considerably less than enjoyable since Book 7.5. Where will you read the book, i.e., what is your go-to location?
It really doesn't matter.6. Do you think we have read the last of the WOT world or does Harriet have something up her sleeve for the future?
I will have read the last of WoT when I read A Memory of Light. Whatever Harriet wants to do is up to her. I strongly suspect, and I may be wrong, that the series will be one that people start to forget about soon after the last book comes out. It doesn't have any enduring value.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.
