Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

	Tor Books announced today that A Memory of Light, the fourteenth and final Wheel of Time novel, will be released on January 8, 2013. Here's the press release: The first novel in Robert Jordanâ€™s The Wheel of Time®, The Eye of the World, was released on January 15, 1990. Now more than twenty years later, Tor Books is thrilled to announce the official publication date for the final novel in the series. A Memory of Light will release on January 8, 2013, in the final month of the Year of the Dragon. A Memory of Light is one of the most important titles that Tor will ever publish. Many of the principal players have been involved with the series since its inception, including Publisher Tom Doherty and Editor Harriet McDougal, who worked with Robert Jordan on all of his books, and who is working with Brandon Sanderson, the writer finishing the series from Robert Jordanâ€™s outline and his notes. This is a landmark publication not just for Tor but for millions of fans of the late Robert Jordan, who eagerly await the conclusion to his epic tale. Everyone involved with the project is committed to making this an ending to remember. Over the next few seasons, Tor will continue to release new Wheel of Time material, including trade paperback editions of the early novels with new art, new graphic novel editions of the The Eye of the World comics, and other material related to A Memory of Light as we get closer to publication date. -----signature----- There's some delight in ale and wine, And some in girls with ankles fine, But my delight, yes, always mine, Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

	Oh, maybe I can finally finish reading the series! I think I picked it up in 93 or so, but gave up when I figured out how many books were planned for it. I didn't want to have to re-read the series every time a new book came out... -----signature----- "Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not abscence of fear." ~Mark Twain The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

	If I start re-reading now, I might be caught up by the time it comes out. I stopped reading WoT after book 6 or 7. Now that it's finally going to be finished, I can start reading the series again. -----signature----- Thanks to iTunes, now you can get free TV shows for just 99 cents

Common place to get disjar'd...really books 1(to a lesser extent) through book 6 were all pretty good reads. Then it really slows down (most people ask how it COULD get any slower). Once Brandon Sanderson took over though, it's been rapid pace action with all the 10000000 plot lines coming together or at least getting tied off. I might re-read them myself, even though I'm not sure I can handle Book 1 again... -----signature----- There's some delight in ale and wine, And some in girls with ankles fine, But my delight, yes, always mine, Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

	Nice, just finished rereading book one last night. Glad to see it's not that far off. -----signature----- "Goddammit, Swearengen, I don't trust you as far as I could th'ow you, but I enjoy the way you lie." I don't typo often, but when I do, I blame Swype.

	After the end of the world. I didn't read the second last one yet, leaving it all for another re-read starting in the fall. It takes me about 6-9 months now to read the series. -----signature----- I survived to the end and got nothing out of it, but hey.
