I’m sorry to say–the death-by-1000-details problem doesn’t get better. Some thoughts on books 6-11 (with a ninja-mode hint at the end): THESE LAST THREE BOOKS ARE GOING TO BE EPIC! They’re the last three Sanderson books I haven’t read and I’m SO looking forward to them! I’ll give you just a little sneak peek: As of this writing I’m about 200 pages into book 12, and the Jordan vs Sanderson experience is so, so different. I am so ready for Wheel of Time to be DONE! Hallelujah, the payoff is here, because books 12, 13, and 14 were written by THE Brandon Sanderson. In those same 8 months I’ve read an ADDITIONAL 28 other books, call it 12,000 pages… I’ve been working hard to move through the series, and guess what!!! I’m THRILLED to have finished book 11! YAY!!!Ĭan we take just a second to appreciate this feat? I shared my thoughts on books 1-5 a few weeks ago. Instead, I’m going review them in chunks. I think a separate review for each book would be kind of boring. It’s making both books move slower than they would otherwise, but it also enables me to move through Wheel of Time AND keep a regular stream of other interesting books to talk about! For two, I’m not reviewing The Wheel of Time as I go. I’m now reading two books at once–Wheel of Time on audio and something else as an eBook. How? Well…I’ve become a book polygamist, for one.

I’m certain One Man Book Club’s fans would get sick of me exclusively talking about Wheel of Time for an entire year! So, I’m approaching this differently than other reading projects. I don’t mind the task, but that just doesn’t fit into One Man Book Club’s reading plans. It’s so long! Reading it straight through (there’s just no other way to do it, right?!) would mean something like 9 months of reading nothing but Wheel of Time–and even that would require 45 pages a day, every day. If you’ve been with me for a while, you’ll know I’ve been putting off reading The Wheel of Time. A journey of 12,000 pages starts at page 1
