While reading the Wheel of Time books (I'm only up to the third), I pictured Loial as a loxodon/elephant person for maybe no good reason. The whole time Ive been listening to it I've been picturing a wonderful elephant person friend and I just saw what he looks like in the show and it's not Babar-like at all

!Late stage book spoiler warning!

dhaskdbaskcasc the scene in the great hunt where Verin, secretly a darkfriend, says to Ingtar, also secretly a darkfriend, who is surprised by a cairhienan lord being revealed as a likely darkfriend: “There are darkfriends among the high as well as the low.”

Really Verin, you don’t say.

I just started fires of heaven and wow does it not take long to get to the Gareth Bryne of it all. Somehow I didn’t realize it was 10 full books of him (and him and Siuan) I would have to contend with. That’s just…so many books.

in one month we will have the RosPike narrated TSR audiobook and I just realized that means in one month we will have RosPike performing Siuan and Leane being stilled. I feel physically ill 👍

Audiobooks aren’t usually my thing but Rosamund Pike’s narration for The Eye of the World has been absolutely incredible.

The voices she does for every single character??? Including really minor Two Rivers villagers? I can just immediately recognise who’s speaking by how she’s saying the dialogue. She is acting acting.

I’m only a few chapters in still but her Mat in particular is sooo good. And I didn’t even like him that much in season 1 of the show!

🎧 NEW | ‘The Shadow Rising’ audiobook read by Rosamund Pike, book 4 in The Wheel Of Time series, is out now!

[moghedien]

saw someone (not on here) comment on the pronunciation of Moghedien based on the audiobooks and here's the thing about that

Kate Reading changes the pronunciation of Moghedien at least three times

so you can't actually go off of the audiobooks on that

because the audiobooks aren't consistent and literally changes based on what book you're listening to

but the way its pronounced in the show it is how the glossary has it. when in doubt, consult the glossary not the audiobooks because this isn't a Moghedien exclusive issue

Someone: this is an impossible task and not worth trying

Nynaeve tugging on her braid: nuh uh

[toastandjamie]

If you haven’t listened to the Rosamund Pike audiobooks of Wheel of Time I highly recommend it, she does an excellent job.

That aside, her voice for Mat is literally so cute! I deserve financial compensation for the giggle I made in public upon hearing it.

I apologize in advance for the person I’ll become when she does books nine and ten

It must be so difficult slimming WoT to fit into 64 episodes, and I wish Amazon had given them just a few more per season. 10 or 12 episode seasons would allow for so much more breadth and depth! A bit longer in the 2 rivers in s1, and more of the road trip adventures. More White Tower people and interactions in s2. More little beloved scenes from the books transposed in. More room for silliness, for context, for AoL glimpses and Forsaken shenanigans. It's so good, but every second feels full, important. Just a few more episodes to breathe!!

[fantasiavii]

I’m kind of mad about how much more I’m enjoying the first Brandon Sanderson WoT. Like. Rand had a heartfelt moment where he talked about feeling trapped by fate? Nynaeve put herself in someone else’s shoes and felt sympathy for them? Nynaeve acknowledged that Moiraine helped them?? Faile crossed her arms across her chest???

"There was no oath stronger, unless it was the one a woman took on being made Aes Sedai, and the oath rod bound her to that as surely as to a part of her flesh.

But this oath. By what she had been taught, breaking it would be not much less than murder, maybe no less."

currently reading: The Shadow Rising

you know how there’s books you need to be in the right mood for? or just keep putting off til the perfect time? after listening to her narration of the first three Wheel of Time books, I’d been so eager for Rosamund Pike to record the next one in the series that I had a google alert set for several months looking out for any news. and the day it finally came out, I got it, but that was in September and I kept putting it off waiting to find the time to dedicate to a 41 hour (😳) audiobook.

well, I’m ahead on my reading goal already so I’m finally digging in. I’ve been loving this series so much and I’m excited to get back into it.
