After that it was like they reached into a bag of random fantasy covers and use the first one they pulled out. I really wish they would have invested a bit more there. But its all good, only art I really look at is the spine of the book. The only artwork I have liked out of the covers was The Eye of the World.

It looks like Rand’s leg is broken just below the knee…

Also I'm actually pretty happy with the split, it gives me more time to enjoy my favorite fantasy series.

I should actually use it as toilet paper if I ever run out. The information is awesome, but the art, complete dung. And looking back on it, how smart was it to release this type of book before even ending the series. Perhaps we will see an update to it. The Big White Book was pure crap.

I'm not into such myself, but I'm so not a fan of the art in the "The World of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time" that I might be willing to purchase anything that made the characters look good.

Not that I'm sad there will be three more books to enjoy, but that the series won't end with book 13, a very significant number in the Wheel of Time. As for the comics, not much of a comic girl myself, but seeing my beloved characters thoughtfully and delicately depicted just might make me pick these up. I loved the art for New Spring. The books' cover art seems so lifeless and bland in comparison. This makes me a little sad.

It always hurts my soul a little when I read the last word in a long-running fantasy series I've been following. But that said, I have been following Jordan's series since the day the first book was published. That's a LONG time. I hate waiting, and I've been waiting for each new book to come along for... wait for it... more than 19 years.
