Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters. Over the course of fifteen books and millions of words, the world that Jordan created grew in depth and complexity. However, only a fraction of what Jordan imagined ended up on the page, the rest going into his personal files. Now The Wheel of Time Companion sheds light on some of the most intriguing aspects of the world, including biographies and motivations of many characters that never made it into the books, but helped bring Jordan's world to life. Included in the volume in an A-to-Z format are: An entry for each named character An inclusive dictionary of the Old Tongue New maps of the Last Battle New portraits of many characters Histories and customs of the nations of the world The strength level of many channelers Descriptions of the flora and fauna unique to the world And much more! The Wheel of Time Companion will be required reading for The Wheel of Time's millions of fans.

I ended up ordering this gem! I'm sooooo glad I did because it's amazing! The maps are gorgeous and detailed and I really love how extensive the glossary is! 😍💕📚 @Sisasuku @Lizpixie @vivastory #wotreread #catsoflitsy #littenkitten #chaplin

Lizpixie It‘s beautiful isn‘t it! I don‘t know how I read the series for over twenty years without it. #WOTimerForLife 5y
Branwen @Lizpixie Right?! I can't wait to refer to it while I'm rereading the series! With such an expansive world and multitude of characters it's really going to come in handy! Why didn't I know about this book the first time around!?! 🤣😂 5y

My earlier post on my #MountTBR progress was mistaken, or at least incomplete. I actually have finished 6 books in the last 6 days. Still probably won‘t hit 7.

#BookMail Pt13 Even though I‘ve had every book in the series as soon as it was published, I‘ve never bought any of the companion books until now. This one is like an Encyclopedia/dictionary of the world of WOT with information & illustrations on anything & everyone mentioned in the books, including maps of all the major places & portraits of major characters. I don‘t know how I‘ve gotten along without it until now!

Talk about a #bookhaul. No other library wanted these. 🤯. But now they are all mine. In. HARDCOVER

I don‘t know what all titles are there but I think most, if not all.

Leftcoastzen Nice haul! 6y
GrilledCheeseSamurai That's awesome! I've been thinking about trying to collect all the hardcovers too. I might just go the paperback route though. We'll see. Great haul! 👍 6y

Life has been pretty crazy lately. I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, and all of my health stuff has made me truly exhausted! I miss being on Litsy and all of you so much! Hoping to feel at least 25% better soon to catch up with everyone!
I‘m still working on the WoT series so I treated myself to the Companion! 😄 Hoping it helps with the names 😂

Avanders Oh that's so hard. Glad you've diagnosed!! You're in prayers! 💖🙏🏽 6y
CouronneDhiver Oh dear! Is that something that will go away? Or a chronic issue? (I hope, of course, for the very best) 🙏🏽❤️ 6y
SaturnDoo Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers ❤❤❤ 6y

#Novemberland Day 8: #time : books written in several points of view
Fantasy Epics have a tendency to have many point of view characters, but I never came across another series with SO MANY. Often 20+ POVs per book

Linsy That just sounds so overwhelming! It's actually one of the things that's kept me away from the series. Is it worth it? 8y
DuckOfDoom @Linsy if you like very epic fantasy, yes, it is worth it. I would recommend to read one book, then read something different before the next, because 14 novels is much. I read the series over a year and was glad I could read something else in between 8y
Linsy @DuckOfDoom Good to know. I do really like epic fantasy, but I've never embarked on such a long journey, and my husband paused after a few -- and it's his favorite genre -- so I wasn't sure if I should try. I'll at least try the first and see how it goes from there. Good to know I don't have to feel guilty for not binging through it all! 8y
