Yeah, and I know some guys on this forum reading it as well, some French speakers, some English speakers. Here's the other thread's link:

Highly unusual I must say, but in France they do that too sleep.gif . Anyways, this is how it goes:

Eye of the World
Great Hunt
Dragon Reborn
Shadow Rising
Fires of Heaven
Lord of Chaos
Crown of Swords
Path of Daggers
Winter's Heart
Crossroads of Twilight
Knife of Dreams

+ 2 prequels:
New Spring
The World of Robert Jordan's 'The Wheel of Time'

Don't mind me not putting the "The's" and "A's" before each book title, I was just writting this off the top of my head.

Very much so. The WoRJTWoT is extremely good in explaining a lot of background stuff about the Wheel of Time as a concept, a series, and of peoples&places therein.

A New Spring is also very interesting. Shows how Moiraine started her quest after Gitara Moroso's Foretelling and also how she and Lan first meet smile.gif.

A song of ice and fire isn't bad at all, but WoT is, as you rightly said, better smile.gif

I love this series, very well written and i'm now re-reading my way through it although i'm now on book 9 again which is imo the most boring one.
