Advantages: Fantastic Detail, Amazing plot

Disadvantages: Occasionally hard to follow

When I first read this book I remember thinking, "This is something different." Lets just say I was right. This author of this book, Robert Jordan was either a genius, insane or a combination of the two. He manages to write a book that is so rich in detail that you can imagine standing in some of the scenes.

When you finish the book it is hard to believe that you have only read just under 800 pages It feels like it should be a lot more. The plot is enthralling, the detail is incredible, and the characters actually feel like real people.

This book, and the series that follow it, is one of the all time greats. In fact I would go so far a s to say that it measures up to the likes of The Lord Of The Rings.

Beware, if you start this epic you will not be able to stop, trust me that's a good thing.

Summary: Brilliant book, read slowly, it will probably take more than one read to get all of the detail
