You'll find that a lot of the people who post here often have read the series more than once, sometimes more than twice or three times (like myself and Farseer, at least). I have been reading fantasy books for a long time, and have read tons of series; I consider this series to be my ultimate favorite. It only took top-spot upon my second re-read, because I picked up on SO much more, and finally read them in the correct order. No one here requires you to re-read and we often use text references from the books themselves, which is a GREAT way to discuss. So no harm done at all.

I hope this doesn't deter you from joining in on discussions, because while a lot of things have been covered, there are always fresh opinions or perspectives to be seen. I find it extremely interesting that you perceived Sa in the way you did, even though that's not actually how Sa is portrayed. People tend to take different things away from books and interpretations can be varied. The discussions would get rather boring if we didn't have fresh insights on them!!

Hopefully you weren't offended.
