Summary: Good, but artwork lacking.
Review: The book is very well done and an excellent compliment to the series. It helps clarify the history of the world and expands in many cases, such as one of my favorite sections on the Seanchan.However, the artwork is rather poor. Not all of the pictures well match the descriptions. I suppose if you want to see good artwork of the series you should look into the game.

Summary: perfect for the younger readers
Review: I found this book incredibly helpful, considering I need all the help I can get reading Jordan's works. I'm one of his younger readers and I find it difficult to grasp some things. This book is great except for the artwork, which leaves something to be desired.

Summary: Extreamely helpful with explaining confusing history
Review: This book was extreamely helpful in explaining the complex history of The Wheel of Time. However, the artwork is poorly done. For example Egwene looks like she should be one of the Forsaken, and Lan like an ax murderer! It makes you wonder wether the artist ever read the books.(Though the maps are very well done.) Good for anyone who's confused on the history, If you ignore most of the artwork.

Summary: Great reference, but artwork...
Review: The info in this book is great! Details on the Age of Legends, Artur Hawking, Shara, Seancean, and the Sea Folk, among other things. One complaint: the artist's rendering of the characters portraits is horrible. For instance, they made Elayne a brunnette when she is actually blonde. Also, They all look basically the same. It makes me question whther the artist really read the book. But besides that, this is a great reference to those interested in the background of the WoT.

Summary: A must read for all jordan fans
Review: I must say, being a fan of Robert Jordan, that the information in this book was invaluable as well as enlightening. It contained more detailed information on such things as the Age of Legends than was in the actual series, and gave background on many otherwise bleak details. However, I would not recommend buying this book for the art it contains, of which I had high expectations and was fairly disappointed in. Granted that the artists idea of such creatures as mydraal and ogier, for example, will conflict with my own ideas. I do regret to say that the actual quality of the art was lacking. It looked to have been done quite quickly and with haste. Overall, however, the book was very well done and deserves 5+ stars for its content, and 3 stars for the artwork. It is definitely something to buy if you can just get past the art.

Summary: The Wheel of Time
Review: La saga de ficción La rueda del tiempo es un magnifico ejemplo de como la literatura que las editoriales denominan Epica puede convertirse por si misma en un fenomeno de masas. Basta con que puedan darse las circunstancias propicias, esto es, un escritor de pluma agil, un argumento convincente y unos solidos personajes que completan una trama que nos mantienen a los lectores pendientes de la proxima edicion del que será el noveno capítulo de esta historia que ójala nunca termine. Gracias Robert Jordan, y por favor apresúrate a publicar el próximo libro.

Summary: Not overly usefull and could spoil things for new readers
Review: While I truly enjoy the WoT books, I have to say this was a "Show me the money" book by TOR. The information in the book was primarlily a rehash of things readers discover or can infer through reading the series. In other words, for those that have read the complete series up to the date of this book there was not a whole lot of new information. For those that are just starting the WoT series, this book could spoil a lot of the suprises. I also have to admit that I thought the art was terrible and question wheter the artist even read the series. On the plus side, the Guide provides a handy reference for hard core WoT fans. It also provides a number of maps that the books have lacked. I would suggest buying this only after you have completed reading the series up to book 8 and have read the short story in "Legends." This is a good reference book to have if your re-reading the series or just trying to pass the time until the next book is out.

Summary: The Path of Daggers
Review: I recently read this 8th volume of the wheel of time and was thrilled to find another Robert Jordan. My only criticism was of the glossary which I found rather sparse. It has been some time since I read the other seven books, and found it hard to familiarize myself with so many characters again - an explanation of who's who would have been very helpful. Can't wait for the next one.
