I am a big fat copycat! I am copying adiva_calendia in reading Eye of the World, the first of the Wheel of Time series. I commented on her running commentary, and genarti said I should do one as well.


Nynaeve is in Baerlon on her mission to bring back Egwene and the boys.

I LOVE NYNAEVE. SO MUCH!!!! She got across the river by finding where the ferryman was hiding? Bwahahaha... Lan's reaction to being tracked was also priceless.

Moiraine also makes me happy, speaking of the ferry. She's such a Slytherin. She's such a lady, too. I mean, I knew this from Aspen's portrayal but I didn't know it in context. Mistress Alys, indeed.

Rand is a dear. I guess I never thought of him as being a kid once, but he's just a boo right now. The shared nightmare was nicely creepy. I am curious to find out who his birth parents were.

The Children of the Light are scary Inquisitor/crusaders. The scene with Rand standing up to them was interesting to say the least.

Thom intrigues me. I don't know what to think of Min. I really like this world, though.

Even if Aes Sedai get no respect. :-P

Then I'll give it a go. When I've got time for books that huge - Easter, maybe?

Jordan's writing took some getting into, for me. But I like the complexity of his world and his plots, and I like a lot of the characters. So I put up with the bits that annoy me a bit, for the sake of all the good parts.

Your mileage may vary, of course. :)

In that case I'll definitely give them another try. I do remember some very interesting ideas, that's for sure...
