I'm psyched! It'll be a good excuse to re-read this summer.

Economically fiendish. First they get the money from all three hard cover editions, then the money from the paperback editions, and then I'm pretty sure they'll publish a three-in-all.

Sorry, but the series has gone on a little too long for me just to accept that money had absolutely nothing to do with this decision.
(I'll end up buying all three for my dad anyway. )

Not entirely, I've made myself a rule not to read series that haven't ended yet. (I very much dislike having to wait a year if not more, for the next installment while I probably don't remember half of what passed before by then.)
So I haven't read anything of the series yet. It's my dad who reads them, so we tend to buy the books for his birthdays and other gift-giving days. So I'm not a sheep, but more a shepherd for taking care of a sheep.

I've just started reading the fifth book, and of course I like it already even though I am only in the first chapter.

There's a part of me that goes, "FOR THE LOVE OF CHEESE, can't they give the artist directions like, 'don't make Wheel of Time look like a cheesy romance novel'?"
Then there's the other tiny part of me that goes, "OMG ANOTHER CHEESY ROMANCE-NOVEL COVER! IT'S JUST LIKE THE OLD DAYS!" ... |

Almost done with my reread of The Dragon Reborn, and I gotta say Robert Jordan was a master of foreshadowing. I mean Egwene has dreams about things that don't happen till books 9-11!
