I'm not really a huge fiction reader to begin with darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 09/10/2012 11:25:34 PM
But over the last year or so I've picked up a few Fantasy novels out of curiosity. RJ is certainly a better story teller than most of what I've seen out there, even though he rambles. I'm going to re-read GRRM this winter after AMOL ... I read the first 3 books of his series years ago and enjoyed it, but got lost after his huge gaps between books. My gut tells me GRRM will end up being the better series in most ways. But WOT will always be my favorite fantasy series... If only for sentimentality sake.

So when the book/series ends, what will it have all meant? Larry - 08/10/2012 09:47:49 PM 1908 Views
Years of enjoyment. What else do you expect from fiction? Marshall - 08/10/2012 10:17:30 PM 905 Views
I expect a lot from fiction, to be honest Larry - 09/10/2012 02:43:59 AM 926 Views

Not sure I'd call it mindless darius_sedai - 09/10/2012 02:53:00 AM 865 Views
Well, it is a bit more complex than a D&D novel Larry - 09/10/2012 02:55:40 AM 866 Views

I've noticed that quite a few here/wotmania have not been big fiction (fantasy) readers Larry - 11/10/2012 05:48:02 AM 846 Views

I like the TV series ... It's gritty darius_sedai - 13/10/2012 11:44:06 PM 748 Views
Well... it's a bit late in the game... DomA - 09/10/2012 02:04:16 AM 964 Views
True, but it's never too late to ask people such questions Larry - 09/10/2012 02:49:28 AM 767 Views
I'm not sure... DomA - 09/10/2012 06:03:08 AM 781 Views

I am now visualizing WoT as a telenovela adaptation Larry - 09/10/2012 06:59:11 PM 747 Views
everything about Lanfear screams TeleNovela! darius_sedai - 11/10/2012 04:38:03 AM 695 Views
Por ella, soy Luisa Therin? Larry - 11/10/2012 05:44:32 AM 775 Views
All of the names would have to be longer and more pompous Tom - 11/10/2012 03:54:30 PM 646 Views
Not in this particular telenovela adaptation Larry - 11/10/2012 05:48:06 PM 994 Views
It is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Tom - 09/10/2012 02:21:20 PM 837 Views
It also has Faulknerian allusions Larry - 09/10/2012 07:04:55 PM 817 Views
BTW, did you see the Folio Society's color-coded The Sound and the Fury? Tom - 10/10/2012 08:06:18 PM 1045 Views

The One Power doesn't seem that unique or innovative to me. Tom - 11/10/2012 04:05:06 PM 685 Views
No, but I'll keep it in mind for the future when I have more money to spare Larry - 11/10/2012 05:49:52 AM 659 Views
It sold out fast. They might reprint it, though. Tom - 11/10/2012 03:45:20 PM 651 Views
Hopefully, that or it won't be more than $200 when I do have the money to spare Larry - 11/10/2012 05:53:20 PM 854 Views

For me, yes. Macharius - 11/10/2012 07:45:25 PM 671 Views
I would think for most the money spent wasn't too bad Larry - 11/10/2012 08:07:49 PM 937 Views
I got my money's worth, oh yes. MightyYT - 12/10/2012 07:59:58 PM 719 Views
I'm not sure it means anything. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/10/2012 08:10:45 PM 869 Views
