When it was announced that Brandon would be finishing the WoT, I made foolish plans to have the series re-read by the time book 12 came out. Hah. Totally haven't started.
The problem was that I didn't own most of them because, on my first time through, I checked out as many as possible from the library. When the library didn't have one in stock, I'd run out and buy it, so I wound up with books 3, 4, 7, and 8. Being less inclined now to track stuff down at the library (busy busy and all that), that means I'd need to buy 8 books for this crazy project, and I've been putting it off.
Sigh. I don't normally reread books (too much that's new to constantly revisit the old), even when new books come out in series and it's been upwards of two years. My memory's pretty good and I don't ordinarily have any issues picking the series back up where it left off. But this is the WoT, and the last book I read was Path of Daggers,
11 years ago. No way could I just pick up Winter's Heart and run from there—not with these books.
So, maybe I'll be ready for book 12 by the time it hits paperback.
Did you know? Right now Amazon has a ton of WoT books for sale with a 4 for 3 discount. I was originally just planning to grab enough to get free shipping, but by the time they were through with me I'd ordered books 0, 1, 2, 5, and 11. (Why 11? The hardcover was only $12. I'm a sucker, I know.)
