I read this book back in college when I was 18/19. I had forgotten nearly all of it in between then and now, roughly 1.5 decades. In order for me to review this honestly, I have to get the Tolkien aspect out in the open. I do remember feeling a bit cheated the first time around at how much Jordan to...
Stop me if you've heard this one before: Hapless companions set out from their sheltered rustic village accompanied by a wizard and a warder (cough, cough ranger), pursued by shifty fellows on horseback wearing dark-hooded cloaks that conceal what really is no face at all and serve a master beyond t...

I think part of the dif...
I read this book a long time ago. I read up to book five or six, I can't remember which and I just let it drop. I do plan on doing a re-read, but I am placing this book in my 'reading-but-set-aside-for-a-bit' shelf.
Starting my eeeeepic series re-read!6/17/2012: For all my teasing and ragging on the book (and the female characters) I still remember why this was always a favorite series. The world is intricate, the politics are snarly, the writing is clean and evocative. The male characters are fascinating and...
