A community for the quality discussion of The Wheel of Time series of novels by Robert Jordan (& completed by Brandon Sanderson) as well as Amazon's streaming adaptation, the first audiobook recordings by Michael Kramer & Kate Reading, the second audiobook recordings by Rosamund Pike, the graphic novels adaptation by Chuck Dixon & Chase Conley (and continued by Rik Hoskin and Marcio Abreu) as well as the collectable card game, the video game, the tabletop role-playing game, etcetera.
Having read the entire series twice, I'm now listening to the books. I'm really noticing the themes of philosophy, religious concepts and mythology. Some are obvious like the Yin Yang symbol for the Aes Sedai, or serpent eating itself. But I just learned that Heracles went mad and killed his family. So now I'm wondering what else I'm missing. Does anyone have any suggestions of where I can learn…
Ive decided that im creating the world of wheel of time in Minecraft, spent like an entire week converting sketchy timelines into miles, into blocks, into a rough mapped out points for the major cities and some smaller towns. Originally I intended to use days in the books to minecraft days to map distance, but that would have left me with a world width of over 560,000 blocks (im doing this on a…

Still working out details, open to suggestions. Hoping for players who know D&D and WOT, and would like a longer campaign/story. Planning to olay over text chat.

What's the difference between "The World of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time" and "The Wheel of Time companion" ? I want to make a d&d-like game in the wot world so I need to know more about the universe submitted by /u/Ebrihtil [link] [comments]
I’ve been re-reading the series and always thought the idea of the great captains was pretty cool. Just wondering who everyone’s favorite of the 5 OG great captains is? I think mine is Rodel Ituralde but maybe that’s because you get more POV chapters of him and his tactics than the others? submitted by /u/Snoo_41920 [link] [comments]
