14 books. 11,916 pages. 684 chapters. 4,056,130 words. It took almost 23 years to write, and it took me 10 months to read it. The story is beyond epic, or as Thom Merrilin says, "exquisite". Like many of the epic series I have read (Ringworld, Dune), I am sad to be leaving all the characters. This was my first huge fantasy series (Lord of the Rings seems small compared to this series) and was a great ride. This last book was by far the funnest read. There some surprises I didn't see coming, both good and bad.

Sigh, what to do now? Back to Sci-fi? I think going into another fantasy series wouldn't be fun, since all I will do is compare it to WoT. I hear rumors of an video game. Maybe we can convince Brandon Sanderson to do a fourth age book (or two).
