Looking for some interesting reads.

Agreed, but when will he come out with his next book, I wonder?

Amazon.com has the released date listed at July 26th, and that seems to be in line with what I've read. He has released several excerpts (one on his webpage and a couple others on this forum) if you're so starved that you just *have* to read something that he's written :)

I believe that reading all those scattered, out-of-context excerpts would eventually take away from his finished product when it eventually does arrive since they are spoiler-ridden supposedly.


As to Wheel of Time and Sword of Truth, they both have just gotten too big for their own britches. WoT at least has been able to maintain a very small amount of plot cohesiveness and direction but the last few books of SoT have done nothing to advance the story in any way whatsoever. SoT has devolved into "brand new and shallow character introduced, 90% of the ensuing pages sucked up with drivel, main characters make the customary guest appearance in the last 5% of the book, new character departs to make room for the introduction of a newer character in the next book."

It's gotten rather stale, to say the least.


Anyways, it's unfortunate that blasted text books absorb so much of my reading time now-a-days that I have grown apart from a once favorite past-time.
