Didn't read New Spring, as I gave up at either "Crossroads of Twilight" or "Winter's Heart" - so little happened in the last book I read and the later books are so unremarkable that I have trouble telling them apart! So not sure what advice to give regarding where to start (except not too ).

Give them a go, see what you think and let me know - I'd like to hear your opinion as you're already are a Tolkien fan prior to reading WoT.
