I’m listening through WoT books for the first time and honestly they are pretty mid. I’m going to finish them, but it was wildly oversold to me.
what book are you on? i just started book 10. truth be told i like the books a lot and they are absolutely epics with incredible world building especially given how long ago the first was written. having said all that… yah, there’s infinitely better stuff written in the past decade
I’m halfway through book two. I think part of the problem is I am listening to them immediately consecutively after each other. I am at the point where if Rand and Egwene have another stupid fight I am going to scream.
World building is solid af though it’s why I’m still listening.
If men and women constantly arguing is too grating for you I’ve got some bad news about the other 12 books. I don’t think it starts to get particularly good until like book 3 and then around 7 or 8 it’s nothing but people sitting in rooms arguing for an entire book.
