First of all, i really love the WOT series and ive reread the complete series book 1-11 5 times now and if you never taken up a copy and given the series a chance, you should really do it (imo). If you already dismissed the series for some personal reason, or maybe prejudices?^^, i wont argue. One thing though, at least me personally never liked the swedish translation as much as the english original, it was abit different and sometimes you even got grave sentence errors and the likes.. So yeah, at least if you are swedish i recommend you reading the series in english. Or listening to the Audio book which is great(took me through a whole summer of boring work listening to the audio book pretty much 8 hours a day :)


Anyway this is gonna be filled with spoilers, the two links i post. Its reread blogs where a person places his own thoughts as he goes along and reads through the chapters in the books, all the way from book 1 to 11. And just because you read summaries from his blog entrys from the first book wont spare you from spoilers from later books. Jordan was a master of Forshadowing and you will soon see that a crazy amount of stuff happening in the beginning of the books is very well connected to later books and fits togheter in the whole picture.

Anyway, if you are a person who wants to follow Brandons work with the three last books, but cba reading the previous books not written by Brandon, here is your chance to pretty much get up to date with everything - even if it might not be as enjoyable experience as reading, or actually it wont be even near, it might even be a loss and spoil a later moment when you actually decide, regardless of prejudices coming from tolkien fans who likes to bash jordan, to read the books :)

Here is the two links to the reread blogs:
a more organized blog, going after each chapter in the books

a more loose one, touching all sort of stuff really.

Here is also the beginning of book 1, the Audio book(there is only the prolouge and about half of chapter one on youtube) That is a bare fraction, think there is 40 something chapters in the first book.
