The Wheel of Time has become one of my absolute favorite series. I read 'The Eye of the World' many, many times and spent countless hours dreaming about this world that Robert Jordan had created. As the series went on (and on) it suffered by comparison with other books, reading the last five or six ...

I only recently learned of the series The Wheel of Time by the late Robert Jordan. Thanks to the internet I found each title in the series, put them in order and started reading. I am blown away by Robert Jordan's ability to paint a picture. He can set the scene so well with his beautiful descri...

I finished this book a few days ago and it took me a while to collect my thoughts. This book was huge, it took me a month to read even on my iPad’s Kindle app. Even with Whispersync, it still took me a month due to my busy schedule and breaks here and there. Despite all of that, I loved it. I love t...

I've wanted to read this for years. I'm glad I did, but I really could not get into Robert Jordan's writing style nor story. That being said, it's not for me, but I do recommend for those who are fans of fantasy.

Long, long ago – while I was manning a pharmacy cash register on my first job, so long ago that cigarettes were about $10 a carton and candy bars were a quarter and some newspapers were a dime and I really shouldn’t be dating myself like this … that long ago, I happened to look at the tiny rack of p...

Longer review coming when it's not late, hopefully. A quick run-down of my end-of-book feelings: Rand al'Thor is still boring as all hell Nynaeve is pretty neat, but I'm put off by the budding romance between her and Lan as it just seemed to sort of...happen? I literally can't stop thinking of Bi...

This book shares a problem that so many terrible DnD campaigns have: it's composed of constant traveling. Every time something interesting looked like it was being set up--nope! Time to go to somewhere completely different!Didn't really help that the main character has the personality of a brick. A ...

My, my, my... What have I gotten myself into? I have finally finished the first book of the very long series...I did enjoy it though, and I'm hoping that I'm one of those people who love the whole series! Rand, Mat and Perrin.. Three normal quiet village boys... So they thought! They dreamed of ...

I have been wanting to get into this series for quite some time. After three full hearted reading attempts and one audio book listening, I am going to openly admit that I can not get into this series. First, this series lacks originality. It takes Tolkien's work, paints it with the "One Power," fl...
