A couple months ago I found an anthology of the Wheel of Time.
I had watched the first 3 or so episodes of the Amazon adaptation and wasn’t super invested into the characters, but wanted to give the book series a shot.
Basically I’ve read about 7 chapters of New Spring and was wondering why literally none of this was brought up in the Amazon series until I realized that adaptation started with Eye of the World. Should I just skip New Spring and come back later? Does this even add to the new reading experience outside of a glance at Tar Vallon and the hierarchy of the Aes Sedai?
I don’t hate this book - but I already know Lan becomes Moirane’s Warder and that she meets/finds the Dragon Reborn.
Edit: I’m reading Chapter 1 of Eye of the World now. Thanks!
Hear me and heed my warning!
The wheel of time series has an incredible slog in the middle books. But you’re invested at the time, so you power through.
The ending does a fine job of wrapping things up, but it takes way too long to get there.
Be cautious!
Sometimes I think I’m psychotic, as I’ve read the whole series 5 times now.
Thanks for the heads up, but I knew what I was getting myself into haha.
