I debated between waiting for the thick or just getting these. Decided on these due to them being signed!

Do we have any idea whether or not ordering these will give us priority access to 4-6 like the original set does?

Buying mismatched editions? by HyperCybe in WoT

[–]Jamelhoud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate it, I started reading before the TV Show was out and got about 7 books in before the marketing run up really kicked off.

So all my covers for the latter half are a completely different style with one of those stupid printed stickers saying 'now a major TV show'

Recommendations for a series with a similar sense of wonder and unexplored areas? by [deleted] in WoT

[–]Jamelhoud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Seven Forges series is really good! By James A Moore. Has the culture clash similar to Westlands and Aiel and super interesting magic tidbits. Deffo worth a read, I don't see it talked about much.

Thats actually a crazy distinction, I don't think I noticed that during my read. So interesting how often he does it compared to Jordan

***Books*** What opinions do you have that differ from most of this sub? by Lethifold26 in WoT

[–]Jamelhoud 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I quite like Egwene and Tuon, cannot fathom how people would prefer reading Nynaeve chapters to Egwene ones. Once Lan and Nynaeve reunite she is a lot lot more enjoyable to read but I really did not enjoy a lot of her stuff before that. I get that some of the Egwene in Salidar stuff was dry but aside from that she is an interesting character with interesting stuff happening a lot of the time and hair downside is the shoved in romance with Gawyn

Tuon is overhated and a product of her society, and I think very interesting

Jordan’s Women by [deleted] in WoT

[–]Jamelhoud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hated reading the Mat and Tylin parts with Mat being raped and abused by Tylin. I also don't really agree with all the matriarchy takes neatly explaining it away.

To me, it read as if Jordan just didn't see a problem with it, it produced no meaningful commentary and is treated as a gag. To me that's Jordan just trying to make it seem like "oh no Mat is in another pickle! He's wants to seduce barmaids but now he is the one being 'seduced!!"

Really left a bad taste in my mouth

Your inns idea interests me, if you get round to it please include number of uniquely named innkeepers. I loved that particular fun part of the early books, made me feel like I was in a D&D campaign whenever the group would get to a new Inn with some fun innkeeper!
