It's really interesting.

Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #4,077 in Books

#99 in Books > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Fantasy > Epic

The Wheel of Time, Boxed Set I:

Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #5,840 in Books

#142 in Books > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Fantasy > Epic

Can anybody explain this phenomenon?

Just a quick post (a member of our club is really into Amazon rankings)

Sales in th UK were good in last two weeks (especially tEotW)
Sales in the USA were terrific in this week:

The Wheel of Time, Boxed Set I, Books 1-3
#195 in Books > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Fantasy > Epic

The Wheel of Time, Boxed Set II, Books 4-6
#282 in Books > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Fantasy > Epic

The Wheel of Time, Box Set 3: Books 7-9
#410 in Books > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Fantasy > Epic

I think boxed sets are really important, because many people give up on the series after only reading/skimming Book 1 ("another Tolkien clone"), but reading the following books they can get a little peek into the 'real' WOT (ofc, they don't know that real WOT means boxed set II).

The biggest problem is the tone, just doesn’t feel like The Wheel of Time

The he thing that made me really enjoy Peter Jackson’s LOTR was that despite the departures from the books the story was told in the same tone as the novels and so it still felt like LOTR Same went for Game of Thrones, the books had a darker tone and thus so did the show so it felt like the same world and the same story. WOT by contrast just does not have the same tone as the books. It feels like they are trying to tell the story of WOT in the tone of GOT and it just feels off
