I'd like to join! I think in the last re-read I tried I made it into book 2 somewhere, so I'll probably just read the comments at first and join in when y'all reach book 2.

Sure, I needed to re-start anyway. Eye of the World, yes? Not New Spring...?

New Spring was good. I think I might read that one first. I believe I'm on chapter 5 of TEOTW.

Count me in on the reread! It may take me a couple weeks to catch up, but let's do it! You could all use proper Red supervision anyways. :rofl:

I always read New spring last, because I'm sad the story ended... and then it springboards the next re-read! 😁

There are neither beginnings nor endings in the WoT... if you keep reading it ;)😁

I finally procured a new copy of EotW so I can join the read-a-long.

Ooh I’m never on site, but count me in!!! Just I’ll need pings over on Discord when things come up 🙈
I have some Audible credits, so I think I’ll snag the Rosamund Pike version. Perfect reason to.

I wish I could listen to audio books.

I tend to get distracted easy and just not focus on whats being said.

Reached Chapter 15. It's interesting re-reading Rand's dream in the Tavern and listening to a different telling of history from another perspective.

For all that Cenn may be looking to stir up trouble, he has a point connecting the weather to a dire influence very early in the books :look:

For once I'm going to follow @Fenya al'Caem's advice and recommend we read New Spring at the end of our re-read, just like you do Phenixys. It'll be the first time I'll ever read New Spring last, so I'm excited to see how that feels!

Yay, so many people are joining in!! I'll update the re-read cohort list when I'm next in front of a computer.

In the meantime, how do we get hooked up with one of those cool re-read tracking signatures? :naughty:

I picked up my German copy yesterday for the first time in years, I might try read along with that , which will slow me down a lot as my German is good enough to follow and get a general idea of what is going on, but not good enough to pick up on the many subtle points and hints
It also doesn't have the chapter icons, which is weird
