"can’t get over how cool lan and moraine are"

SRI KANDULA

"Great read. I loved this book. I’m continuing the series, and I’m so excited to finish. This series has got to be my favorite. I wholeheartedly recommend for anyone interested."

Rexy

"Very reminiscent of Lord of the Rings; a fellowship of people, including a wizard and a warder, go over mountains to visit a white tower. Along the way, one of them is tracked by a being, once a man distorted by an ancient dark magic. Still entertaining through, if it's not broke don't fix it. The series branches out far beyond this though, so much to look forward it."

Kay

"At the beginning it was pretty slow. It took me a while to get invested in the story. But after that, i spent couple of nights just reading this, instead of sleeping, lol. Couldn't put it down. Looking forward to what the next books hold."

Bikiran Guha

"Rand and friends start an adventure that’ll last years. "

Shelby Johnson

"My dad made me read this, and it took me FOREVER. It was worth it tho bc of the discussions we had. Would def recommend reading with a friend otherwise it's pretty slow. The author LOVES foreshadowing, so it's pretty cool when you actually pick out stuff on your own. Also if you don't ship Nynaeve and Lan then what are you even doing? 3/5"

Jordan

"The wheel of time series is hands down my favorite fantasy series of all time! It's a classic war between good and evil for the fate of the world. The characters are really well developed and it's awesome to watch them grow and change throughout the series."

"Right now I am really loving the Way of Kings series. "

Amber Olinger

"I have to say, I much prefer the original to the show. The show is exquisitely designed, with fantastic effects. It, however, eviscerated the story. I shall now go back and read the books."
