Summary: How To Write A World...
Review: A world-filling story about the eternal struggle of good versus evil. The main characters all have a clear personality, with their own thoughts and visions about their world, and they each develop separately. A beautiful display of storytelling quality. I found the books to tell a story well-blanced between characters and general storyline, where the views and notions of each character give the reader a good overview of the direction of the series as a whole. On the downside: although characters and storyline do develop, they do not really progress. For instance, after six books, Nynaeve still jerks her braid to stop herself from pouting, and Rand finds himself in the same predicament, only on a larger scale. It is stretched out too far. Further, the world in which the book plays seems almost too conveniently limited by the Spine and the Blight. That could also have been done a bit more elaborate. It also surprised me that since the breaking of the world, 3000 years ago, basic culture has not developed. What was lost in the breaking is only now starting to be rediscovered, and slowly at that. As to the comparison with The Lord of the Rings, It definitively has similarities, as, I think, any fantasy work of this magnitude will have. However, Jordan has a very distinct style that nowhere gives me the feeling that I'm reading a Tolkien book. The Wheel of Time deserves a place of its own. All considering, it is definitively one of the best series I've read. It was every bit worth my time. When I started, I read almost full-time for two weeks, finishing the first three books, ca. 2000 pages. I just couldn't stop!

Summary: I would give the entire series a rave review.
Review: I find the Wheel of Time series a super read. I just wish I did'nt have to wait so long for the next book to come out. I find I have to reread my previous copies over again, so I can remember all the details. I'm waiting in suspense, please hurry.

Summary: TRY IT YOU'LL LIKE IT!!!
Review: I have read all 7 books in 'The Wheel of Time' series... TWICE... and am on constant look out for the next book. I must admit that at some points in the 7th bk the story drags and you find yourself wanting to jump to the 'good bits'. There are however enough of these to make it a good read. I am absolutely dying to know how the 3 women in Rand's life sort things out, who is the Daughter of the Nine Moons, what about Bridgette and (fans of Soap should appreciate this) who is Niaomi? TRY IT!!!

Summary: Will be known as one of the best ever
Review: I have read every volume of this apparently unending tome and loved every moment of it. The only series I have read that is comparable is Stephen Donaldson's Chronicles of Thomas Covenant. Donaldson, however, knows how to finish what he starts. Jordan owes it to his readers to reach closure. One book every two years is way too long for a saga to go on. Will I have to reread prior books to maintain the continuity? However, his story and characters are so compelling that each book, with a brief synopsis of the prior one, can stand on its own well. So in short, it needs to end because I can't take the wait anymore! Will the Dragon ultimately go mad and break the world and become the fantasy genre's greatest anti-hero, supplanting Thomas Covenant? Or will I go senile before Robert Jordan ends this series???

Summary: What can I say?? THE BEST
Review: I have read this wonderful series more times that I can count. I've got one copy to read, and one just to admire. Robert Jordan's books bring the reader all of the way into his world, making the reader feel what the character feels. It is so very frustrating having to wait for the next book. I do think, though, that #9 will be the end. Here's hoping!!!!!!

Summary: Where is it leading?
Review: I love the books. Exept for a few minor things the books are very good. It is a lot like Tokien. There is, however, one fault that cannot be ignored. When does it end? Rand and company have not fufilled half of the Prophecies mentioned in Books 1,2, and 3. He has yet to defeat the Senchan and the Sharans. Those will take at least a book if Jordan crams it all. After that he has to kill all the Forsaken which is no easy chore. Then, finnaly, he has to wage a campien in the Blight. Totally there will be two more books if we are lucky. After that though the books lack only a few minor things.

Summary: Robert Jordan is the best Author of the all time
Review: I think that a simple five star ratting system is no match for the extravagant writtings of Robert Jordan. He is the most gifted author in this day and age. He has an exellent use of characters, he introduces a single character in a book as an unimportant character and then brings the character back,with importance, in a different book.Most of all I would like to disagree with Cynarion from Melbourne,Australia in complaining about the complexness of Robert Jordan's writting. I think that Cynarion was the one haveing problems keeping with the intertwineing story lines, because I am a fifteen year old male and I have no problem understanding and keeping with the complex story lines behind Robert Jordan books!

Summary: The greatest experience I've ever read
Review: I've been reading fantasy almost all my life. Jordan's WOT is by far the best of the best. He trully _takes_ you into his world. I have read each book at least 3 times. Even though I know what is coming, his writing still has me flipping pages as fast as I can to read the next. If you want characters that you can feel, a story that you can live, and a world that you would die for, Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time is all that and more.
