How many pages of actual story are there total in the Wheel of Time series?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

  • As of book 13, Towers of Midnight, there are 4,060,310 words including the novella, New Spring. The last book is estimated to be over 300,000 words, so it will be almost 4 and a half million words at the time of completion.
  • If we estimate roughly 400 words per page, and 750 pages per hardback volume, for 12 volumes so far....

    that multiplies out to a little over three and a half million words, or almost five times the length of the Bible (standard old and new testaments.)

    I'd be willing to bet the WoT is probably the longest single story ever written.
