They are doing that because they want to maximize money from the hardcover sales, since ebooks retail for around the same price as the paperbacks, their release will coincide with the paperback release.

I'm getting mine from a bookstore so I'll be getting it and probably not sleeping until I finish.

I don't think I can agree with you. At Amazon you were able to order the paperback version as well, and it was the same date as the hardcover (but I will check that again)

That would be a strange departure from past releases. As far as I know it has always been a hardcover release, followed by paperback a couple of months later.

I got bored with these a while ago, but I've invested so much damn time that I can't just leave it alone now. Looking forward to finishing it off!

Someone motivate me to continue to read these books, i literally read through the first 8 books in 2 months and now i cant get past it. I dislike most of the characters (Especially Nyven GOD i hate her) but im also thinking i just burned myself out reading so voraciously.

If you read some of the thread it'd be clear lol. Books 8-9-10 (with the exception being the end of book 9) are all VERY slow. It's tedious reading but it pays off once things start resolving and the plot starts moving forward with book 11, and then leaping forward in the last two books.

That's the way it usually is...I was confused as well. But I checked again and it clearly says Paperback - release date: 8th of January.

I see no other Amazon entry for A Memory of Light, and no Paperback listing in the formats section. Cheapest version is $20 Hardcover.

Previous two books, in Australia at least, were released with hardcover and paperback on the same date, but it was the the large print paperback rather than the later release smaller size so they still make a bit of extra money from initial sales.

I think I started my reread at the exact right time. My math has me finishing ToM the day before my copy is scheduled to get to me. So excited!

I got to ToM a couple days ago so I've been listening to it on audiobook instead of reading to make it last the rest of the way.

Wheel of Time is an epic fantasy series, gotta love fantasy world building on such a grand scale. Looking forward to the conclusion and couldn't be happier that my favourite writer is the one to finish them for Jordan :D It's sad though that after 20 years crafting the series Jordan passed away before penning the last books himself

Current re-read status in preparation for the final book: 25% of book 7.

In full disclosure I've never read books 11-13 as they weren't released when I did my second read-through... so I'm looking forward to those
