I have loved the first and second Chronicles for many many years, and have read through both many times. I was very excited when I heard SRD was writing a final series. I purposefully didn't read the new books because I am so impatient and didn't want to start ROTE and then have to wait for the rest of the series. So when I recently found out that the 4th and final book was coming out this year I rushed out and bought ROTE, FR and AATE because I couldn't wait any longer.
I found myself a little disappointed in ROTE, but I just let it go and wrote it off as that book was just building up to the final three and was setting the stage.
Now I have started FR and I am still journeying to Melenkurion Skyweir. I feel like I am plodding along and I am struggling to get into the book.
I have been coming here for a long time just lurking and reading the many wonderful posts here. Many things that confused me have been explained. Many themes I was struggling to wrap my mind around have been thoroughly examined, and this has greatly increased my love for the first 2 series.
But I avoided the areas that discussed the Last Chronicles because I didn't want to accidentally read any spoilers. But tonight I just needed a reason to hang on and keep trudging along. I am so glad that I came here. I have found my motivation to keep going. So this newbie thanks you.
