Each time a new book came out I’d go back and re-read the series.I didn’t enjoy the meandering path. There was a lot of world building there. Lots of different cultures. It felt like a real lived in world full of peoples. Unlike say, Lord of the Rings. I’ve mentioned it before but there are some moments in the books what are just epic. Absolute moments of awesomeness. Some of that comes from the build up and the effort going in to setting things up.No spoilers but Egwene and the Adam, the Rhuidean finale, Battle of Emond’s field, Dumai Wells, Egwyne with Vora’s Rod. and and many many others that are so powerful. It’s the only book series where I have been so caught up in the story that some of those moments bring tears to my eyes.Interesting as well, even though it isn’t as brutal as Game of Thrones there is still a lot of risk and jeopardy in the series.While the characters definitely have moments when they can be annoying, every character comes into their own. Egwyne can be really annoying at some points but her character arc is frankly amazing when it comes to fruition. Just writing this is making me want to re-read. The sad thing is the series probably won’t be able to do it justice.</blockquote>
