Lord of Chaos is one my favorite books in the entire series. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I feel like Jordan has really started to nail the structure and cadence now. Really interested to see what I think about Crown of Swords.

Loved your analysis of the Rand/Taim-Lews Therin/Demandred psychological connection. I think Rand's mental connection to Lews Therin (or possible madness? RAFO) and how it manifests in his relationships with others (like Taim) is one of the most interesting elements of this book. That and the ending... obviously! LoC is still behind TSR for me, but it's probably top-3 WoT imo. Anyway, can't wait for you and Matt's full-spoiler review!

Yeah, I chatted to Matt a bit via DM and he enjoyed it too - but looking forward to getting his full thoughts.

Hi! Lol, I didn't expect you to call me out but I appreciate it. 😂 I think those books would be good together. Even 10 & 11 might be good, too, but book 11 is a longer book, I believe, so probably 9 & 10 if you wanted to group smaller books together. If you like plot threads dangling from book to book, I think you might not mind the slog as much. 🤞 I don't mind that, either. I don't think each book in a series needs to be basically a stand alone. I guess that's why I like the WOT, even the slog portion. Looking forward to your spoiler filled thoughts.

I could definitely go for two shorter books together, I'll keep 10 and 11 in mind too!

At the beginning of the series, the ages are as follows: Rand, Mat and Perrin are 19. Egwene, Elayne and Faile are 16 - 17. Nynaeve is 23 - 24. Min is 22 - 23. Aviendha is 17 - 18. Moiraine is 41 - 42 and Lan is 44 - 45. Others are listed on the source site, but you have the main characters.

Thank you Graham I was sure somebody would know! I'm too scared of the wikis after spoiling myself on a few major things

I thought Nynaeve was more like 26 at the beginning of the series because she talks about babysitting the younger Emond Fielders. I may be wrong.

So when will you read New Spring? It is quite good, and I think it is recommended to read somewhere in the middle of the series (after the wagon scene probably~)...

I'm going in publication order, so after book 10 I think. I want to read Wheel of Time in the order that people originally read it.
