I'm a longtime member of a german-speaking Wheel-of-Time Community.

And I think time has come to join TV.net. :)

And so begins Nynyra's grand adventure! Because a lot of grand adventures begin with the phrase "the time has come for..." :look:

Welcome! :joy Make yourself at home, tell us a bit more about yourself before we start asking. :laugh:

The story how I got to wheel of time is a bit funny. Maybe I can start with that...
Long time ago, I suggested I had to read ONE fantasy book. With that decision in my mind in a normal german supermarket I looked at the bookshelves and found a book, which told me: 'complete! In one book! - I turned it over read the back, openend the book and startet reading...
'Yeah... sounds interesting. And it is a complete story. Good. I try that one...'

What I truley didn't understand at that time, was, that it was a whole series and that in Germany english/american books are usually split into more books.
This one wasn't split. So ist was complete.

To buy this one book changed my life in many ways. :)

It's similar here in Serbia - the translated versions are split into two, so I can definitely understand the mistake. :laugh: I am glad you ended up with it, and even better - decided to stick with it throughout all those books. :fistbump

I can't even imagine WoT all in one volume. That must've been a ginormous book!

Welcome to Tar Valon! :D

Your story about finding the series also made me smile. I'm glad you liked it enough to keep reading.
