Well , when I posted something like this all I got was Go brag somewhere else . And Not even a humble brag , just a brag But I ' m not an ass hole so HOLY FUCK TEACH ME and what weapon load out were you using ? <| sep |> So , whom do you now think has a chance moving forward ? <| sep |> UPDATE The founding date has also been changed to September 11 , 2001 . <| sep |> I would imagine it ' s shorter than WoT . I listen to about an hour or two a day in the car and manage about a book per month . I found myself zoning out early on in the series and honestly think it might ' ve helped . I didn ' t get caught up in the confusing details that typically plague new readers . After the second book I realized that the author withholds a lot of information for later books , so I just went along with whatever I missed , and sure enough most things get answered later on . Let Erikson take you where he will , and it ' ll click eventually . The best thing about this series is figuring things out . I liken it to the show Lost , where you only ever know as much as the characters do .
