Any fellow nerds out there? Looking forward to the next book coming out this fall. Thought I'd start a thread to talk about all things Jordan related. |

I'm a fan from back in the day when I read the first book, ignorant of the fact it was a series. After 3 or 4 books I finally did a little digging to find out the series had not been completed yet. Then I looked at the picture of Robert Jordan on the back cover. I said to myself, "This guy's gonna croak before he finishes the series." When a buddy and fellow WoT nerd called me to inform me of the news, I screamed out, "I knew it!" Anyway, I read the last one, written by Brandon Sanderson, thought it was good. Then I read another series by him, the Mistborn series. Very cool. If you dig the last books of the Wheel of Time, I suggest you check out Mistborn. He has another series, Elantris, that I have yet to read. Ham |

Hahahaha...The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. On book 14 or so right now. Jordan dies a few years back and Sanderson has stepped in to finish writing it. |

If you want the short, short version of the books, check out the link below. Scroll about halfway down the page and look for the Robert Jordan books. I believe they are listed in order. I think they did a good job summing up the plots.  I fought my way through the first couple books but just couldn't handle them... http://rinkworks.com/bookaminute/sff.shtml |
