Jordan still going strong
The third book in The Wheel of Time maintains the pace and flow that have hooked millions of readers in the first two volumes. Everything that fans have come to crave from Jordan is here--action, adventure, surprise plot twists, old/new characters and the reality of the not so cut-and-dried struggle between good and evil. Jordan continues to impress in this volume and is sure to keep fans ...

The Wheel hits a nail and deflates completely
Well, my fellow WoT fans, this is the book we all feared would come--a book where Jordan stooped to filling pages with virtually meaningless content, knowing that we would still read it. It is hard to believe how inferior this book is to the others in the series. I am still amazed that my eyes passed over so many words, yet so little happened to advance the story. There are only a few things ...

Execellent Series
I picked up the first three books in a set at a Books a Million, and after I started reading in December I haven't been able to stop. I'm about 1/2 way done with book 7 after about 2 months of reading in the series. It's a very engaging series and has merits for readers across multiple ages and preferences. I recommend this series to everyone except people who don't have at least 2 to 4 hours ...

Still strong, but Jordan begins to milk it
While I rate this book highly, this is the first book in the series where I really began to feel that the story was being stretched out deliberately to yield more books in the future. Many of the subplots advance slowly and more subplots are introduced, leaving more loose ends to tie up later. Don't get me wrong, this is still a wonderful book and worth your time. If you're a fan of the ...

As much as I want to, I can't stop reading these books.
The Wheel of Time series was first recommended to me by a friend. When I first started this series, I found the writing to be terrible and the story boring. But I made myself read on, and I'm so glad that I did. As the books progress all the characters grow and change. Although I still don't really like the way these are written, I can't stop reading Wheel of Time. They suck you in and keep ...

An awesome continuation...
The history continues as well as characters and plot development. Rand finally accepted being the Dragon Reborn, Mat yet refuses to acknoledge that he is Ta'veren and Perrin take the full role to protect the Two Rivers people from, let's say, menances. All this with Aes Sedai and their hidden reasons, Seachan and Children of Light plotting and the Dark One and his minions in the shadows. ...

Good versus Evil, but are all the bad guys wearing black?
Read/Listened to book one, and was hooked. Love this type of story line with an unsuspecting hero and a crazy changing adventure. I'm now about 2/3's of the way thru Book two, great the way it picked up right where one left off. If you want to get lost in another world covered in mystics, strange creatures, and dark friends, this series is for you. This is pure excapist reading with all ...

How to Read the "Wheel of Time" series
In 1990, I picked up a book by a writer named Robert Jordan, who was mainly known among fans of fantasy for the Conan novels he penned, which were among my favorites at the time. I bought it without a moment's hesitation and loved it. The Eye of the World followed the classic formula high fantasy had been treading since Tolkien wrote of hobbits leaving the Shire with Nazgul in pursuit. Getting ...

Best Book Yet
Of the 11 books so far in the series (not counting the prequels) this one was the best. It even had a section told from Tuon's point of view which I enjoyed more than I thought I would! I don't see how the guy who is going to finish the series since Robert Jordan died can wrap everything up in one book, but having 13 books (for the 13 Aes Sedai needed to gentle a man who can channel) in the ...

His Best Novel
Many people were disappointed with the release of this book because it is a prequel. They have good cause for this. It can be difficult to not have the story move forward. Many people have invested much reading time in this series. But.... If you take it as a stand-alone work I consider this to be Jordan's best work. It is a gentle love story, simple as that. probably a tribute to someone ...

Remarkable
I see you were too.... modest..... to leave your first name as well. You go off and read your three self-contained books, some people were ruined by television as children and cannot deal with any situation that does not resolve in one episode. For those of us in the world that can walk and chew gum at the same time, This is a marvelous series of books and I highly recommend it, it is exciting ...

Outstanding Resource
I wish I had had this book from the beginning of the Wheel of Time series. I try to put a little time between the books, so I often had to thumb through the previous books to remember different characters and things that happened. By the time I reached number 9, it was a real chore. That sparked me to find out if there was a companion book for the series. Well, there is, and it's very ...

Mature Spirituality
What would spirituality look like beyond defensiveness, self-righteousness, fear, and hate? Could it still be a profoundly poetic work, beautifully written, almost taking the breath away with its metaphors and, yet, deal with the history of theological and philosophical arguments throughout religious history in a deeply cogent manner? The answer is yes. Just when you thought there was no hope ...

What a buy!
My wife insists on reading brand-new hard-cover books. Used books are NOT acceptable to her. To find somebody else's hair, or a crumb of food in a used book would be like finding a dead rat in the cupboard to her. Therefore, when it is possible to get NEW books at 1/3rd the price of the exact same item sold at Barnes & Nobles, it really saves $$$. Although the books are shipped via USPS media ...
