Revan

Finally, my first post. :) Hi! My name is Mike, but I am known by many aliases. For this place, I chose Revan. :) I don't know if you know where it comes from - but I hope you do. :) I live in Romania, a country as of yet untouched by fingers of ice and fire. :) But I have started reading the books because a friend recommended them. I was reluctant to start, but once I did, it ensnared me as sure as any other saga that I've read. :) I'm currently at book 3. I'm listening to them actually, because I can't read them on paper anymore - in fact I'm listening to it right now. :) But these days, the Tour de France has started, which cuts my daily listening time almost in half. :) I don't know how active I will be on this board. I know for sure that I will never be able to read everything that has been posted so far - so I would like to know where I should start and where are the more important discussion points at the moment - for a newbie at least. And of course, I have what I'd like to call the "Fear of the Newbie" - that is, to not repeat something that's already been posted or asked. If y'all would like to know more about me, please don't hesitate to ask. :) I hope I haven't taken too much of your time with this post.
