Keeping Track of the Wheel of Time's Menagerie

Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series is huge, having spawned 11 novels with no signs of stopping. Keeping track of the characters in all those books can be difficult, all the more so when you're like me and you listened to the books instead of actually paging through the dead tree editions. Heck, despite years of listening to the books, I still have no idea how to spell any of the main characters names, since I never actually see them.

That's where The Menagerie is helpful. It's a Robert Jordan fan site dedicated to indexing every character in the series. It's a work in progress -- while some characters from books as recent as Crossroads of Twilight can be found here, only the first four books are exhaustively indexed. Still, that's enough for me to at least find the proper spellings of the main characters and organizations when I'm working on reviews, and the amount of content that the site does have makes it well worth visiting for more casual fans.
