7 to 10 are boring.. I think I only read the summary for some of them and then continued with 11.

Not this potentially premiering this year and making me change my reading plans

NOVEMBER!



Do we know if S1 is going to be just The Eye of the World? Cause I want to read it before the show airs, but at 750 pages... might as well start now fff

Yes, I think the consensus is that season 1 is Eye of the World and parts of New Spring (don‘t read that one yet though) plus at most the start of Great Hunt.

This is so much better than I hoped it would be.

Holy shit, it looks so good!

I read Eye of the World when I was a kid and never made it through the rest (our library randomly didn't have 9 and 10 so my childhood brain was like why bother nn) so let me take this opportunity to dive back in with @Trinu 3.0!

It’s still five quid on Kindle and I ain’t giving the devil that much money! ññ

I’m with Foundation now and I want to read Dune next… when was this premiering?

November 19. Plenty of time to get through book 1. (Don't read the prequel, it will spoil things.)

We got a poster:



I finally got my hands into the whole series, so should be starting the first book soon-ish!
