That makes it about 2.5 times the length of ASOIAF.Okay, but ASOIAF is what, 5/6 books? WOT is 13 books.Yes, it’s sad more people don’t read it. But it doesn’t make sense to act like it’s somehow more impressive just because it’s more books.Of course it’s gonna take longer.Did anyone care that you can read the bible in a shorter time than Harry Potter? -- source link
