Written by Oliverde8 on 02/02/2020
For those who have not noticed I have a Book section to my website, where I do try and list all the books I have read or I am reading with some comments as well as reviews. Lately I have not been very diligent in keeping it up to date. The last update is from "15/04/2018"; but things are not as bad as they look. I have been doing a lot of rereads recently.
Those who knows me are probably aware that I am a huge Wheel of Time fan. In my opinion it s the best series out there; even throught I can understand that some people don t like Robert Jordan s writing style. I started re-read

Written by Oliverde8 on 25/11/2012
The Wheel of Time
The wheel of time has been for over 3 years now a good friend of mine. Some of the readers of the wheel of time have been reading Robert Jordan’s work for over 20 years now.

Also because I just finished reading the hall series expecting the last book to come ou
