Hi. Hello.

I've been reading WoT since around the publication of Lord of Chaos. I was frustrated with Jordan for awhile around Winter's Heart due to the slowed pace and publishing. I got over it, and I still love the books. I never finished the series, though I know what happens.

I recently started a re-'read' of the series, listening to the fantastic audiobooks for the first time. I'm on Path of Daggers now. Everything from Knife of Dreams on will be new to me.

I work with Kyla Sedai IRL, and she has been poking me about joining, especially as I began my audiobook adventure.

I'm a father, librarian, and graduate student. I'm passionate about technology, data, and awesomesauce Lego builds. I've done a few small mosaics myself, but I wouldn't call them awesome.

I read a lot of fantasy novels. As far as contemporary writers go, I particularly love Scott Lynch and Patrick Rothfuss. I also go through absurd amounts of comic books and graphic novels, though I usually wait until my library gets the trade paperback versions. That usually puts me behind on what's going on by six months or so.

I'm looking forward to meeting folks around here.

If Kyla says you're all right, then you're all right.

Welcome! Kyla's pretty awesome so yay for that. :D I'm also a huge fan of the audiobooks, particularly for rereads.

I look forward to getting to know you! :welcome

Welcome :) I are going to find a lot of people who share your interests here. I myself am interesting in data although my interest is more about data protection than anything else :laugh: If you need any help or have questions, feel free to leave me a Visitor Message.

Great to meet you, al'Kosh! Or do you prefer just Kosh? Are you a Babylon 5 fan by chance? And, because I'm nosy, which graphic novels do you enjoy? I'm a big Hellblazer fan, but I've also been known to enjoy Sandman, American Vampire, Locke and Key, and (of course) a variety of Batman titles.

If you have any questions or anything and/or you need a break from Kyla, feel free to holler! ;)

:welcome

:eek Another Rothfuss fan!! :joy
Welcome :D It's my first time listening to the WoT audiobooks as well and I love them, I can't believe I didn't get into audiobooks before. Have you listened to the audiobooks for Kingkiller Chronicles? Nick Podehl is absolutely amazing :D
Looking forward to seeing you around :D

Greetings and welcome al'Kosh :) I guess part of WoT's intrigue is the discussion it generates. I share some of your "frustrations." But we have closure despite the passing of the author and exceptional circumstances and complications of a true epic.

Welcome from a former neighbor! Hope to meet you sometime when I'm back visiting the area. :) (If I didn't already kinda sorta meet you the day I met Kyla at the library?)

Do you listen to the Comic Nerds Unite podcast? Sounds like it would be right up your alley and it's by some local (to you) buddies.

Oh good, it's not just me. :giggle
