A WoT map would be awesome, but securing the rights to make it is too much of a long shot. Of course, someone could always make a WoT-esque map.

And Brandon Sanderson has been awesome for the Wheel of Time series. I'm looking forward to the last book finally coming out.

Why?

It would inevitably be a disappointment.

Well you're just a little ray of sunshine aren't you! Or should that be blast of bale-fire?! GoT readers seem to have been reasonably satisfied so why would you just flat out assume WoT would be so shabbily done as to be "inevitably disappointing"?!

I still think it'd be cool so neerr

Just from this thread, it reminds me of a few other series: The Lonely Winds [url]thelonelywinds.com[/url], Quantum Leap, Time Tunnel, Wheel in the Sky (a song actually).
I might look this up and see what it's about.

The 14th and final book is coming out next year. The books are an average of 6 or 7 hundred pages. Are you sure you can handle it?

Yeah, I can handle it. Credentials: read all of Don Quixote, plus a whole bunch of other books,

700 pages! Wow! sounds fun!

Okay, the last book has been out for over a week now, and while good, it left a few things "meh" or "yuck" for me, it was still enjoyable.

I used to be a big fan, but around about book 7 or 8, I was not able to keep buying the books and they stopped appearing in my local libabraries.

now.. its so detailed, I would have to go back to the start to even know what is happening.

I stopped around book 5, read the summary for book 6, then lost interest.

The series was becoming too repetitive, tedious, and stagnant.

It picks up the pace in the later books, especially from 10 onwards.

I wonder which idiot decided it would be a good idea to wait 3 months before releasing it in e-book format.

If I had to guess, either TOR (the publisher) or Harriet, Robert Jordan's wife (who doubled as his and Brandon Sanderson's editor).
