I remember being bitterly disappointed when I heard that the newest 'Wheel of Time' book would be a prequel, and, worse yet, a prequel based on a short story I had already read in the 'Legends' anthology. Remember that I was in high school at the time, and you may guess at just how deep those emotio...

My one note on Goodreads on this book was "Not nearly as much spanking in this as in the main series" - and that's a bit sad, considering there was still more spanking than I would consider normal in a non-erotic-type novel. (That's one thing I'll say for Jordan, is the spanking is never erotic. I t...

Lan is an idiot. Moiraine is an idiot too. Together they're too stupid to live, but somehow they survive to the first book. I listened to this to remind myself of all the things I've forgotten about the ten or so translated Wheel of Time books I read years and years ago. Luckily I wasn't doing anyth...

I really liket it. It was nice to know how Moiraine and Lan get to know each other and how it all started.

Overall, the story flowed along nicely. It was almost like I had just discovered Jordan's work again. I actually stayed up late and kept reading until I was done; something I haven't done since book 3 or 4. The next chapter, Knife of Dreams (Wheel of Time, Book 11), had the same effect on me. If you...

I read New Spring after finishing Crossroads of Twilight, when Jordan had originally published it. I would not suggest reading New Spring before starting the series, simply because there is a lot unexplained and it isn't a very strong book. Additionally, New Spring takes place about 15 years before ...

A Top Quality Prequel, both Enjoyable and Bittersweet The Wheel of Time prequel, New Spring, is a very good addition to the series written by Robert Jordan. I read New Spring after Book 5, The Fires of Heaven, based off the recommendation of several WoT fans instead of after Crossroads of Twilight...

The graphic novel edition of New Spring was beautifully and masterfully done. As a recent (3 years) fan of Robert Jordan's work with the entire series of the Wheel of Time New Spring as a novel on its own stands as one of my least favourite works in the series. It lacks for me the epic nature of the...
