Boy do I ever envy you. I've read all nine books in the series, and I'm eagerly awaiting book ten. The problem with this is that, by the time book ten is released, I'll probably have forgotten everything I've read in the previous books, meaning I'll have to read all nine books again just to understand what the hell is going on. Since each book in the series weighs in at around 1,000 pages, that means it'll take me about 2 or 3 months just to get back up to speed. It's been like that for every new book released since book six, which is where I first started.
