Title: Be prepared for a long series
Review: It's the first 3 of the series. My husband has dementia and in a moment of clarity he wanted to reread the series. He sadly discovered that the box that holds them is not beverage proof. But the books are. There are so many pages the books were not damaged at all. I can't review the series. I read the first 3 and said I had had enough. My 3 kids told me the the story really starts in book 4. Each book is over 1,000 pages. This is not a simple read.

Title: Incredible Deal
Review: These books purchased alone would cost what I paid in the grouping deal. The outer box is sturdy enough for this many paged novels and attractive for any shelf. The content is exactly what I was looking for and gives a new enhancement to the Amazon series showcased. I recommend them for any reader who loves fantasy novels. All time classics that completely live up to their decades long reputation.

Title: Great Books
Review: Really enjoyed the read!I love reading and Robert Jordan did not disappoint. It was my first time through the series so it was fun to meet the characters and learn about the world that the author created. His descriptions are vivid and his characters are relatively relatable. Sometimes the world building was a little too much but in the first three books it doesn’t take away from the plot too much. I’m on the 9th book currently and the descriptions of the world are getting long and unhelpful when not downright irritating.The books themselves are pretty flimsy paperbacks as expected. They crease down the spine while reading and the creases stay. The pages themselves had a couple misprints where the actual text was almost printed off the page and in a couple cases I missed a few words. Not sure if that is just a copy I received or if it is something others encountered.I would not let this boon get anywhere near water as I don’t think it would recover ever lolThe series is a good one and I would recommend it to any fellow fantasy reader. Comparable to LOTR.

Title: Physical quality meh, content is great, three hundred pages of fluff per book
Review: Other buyers weren’t kidding with the book quality issues. You could handle these with kid gloves and they’re still gonna look like you read them several times after the first.Anyhoo, if you’ve heard of the Wheel of Time, it’s a worthwhile read. Each book could shed a couple hundred pages and lose none of the story. But that extra fluff is useful in a fashion; as a friend says, you can taste the food the characters eat and feel the clothes they wear.Jordan’s got a habit of throwing in recaps in subsequent books. In stochastic and random fashion throughout the story anytime events from previous books are first referenced in the next. If you aren’t avidly reading the story at a good pace, the call backs are helpful. But if you’re like me, living on-call with little else to do but read, you’ll find yourself skimming paragraphs and rolling your eyes.If I had one honest bone of contention for the story itself, it’s that Jordan never picked a lane. He wanted to have the whole universe as his audience. He put his best efforts into creating well thought out men. And well thought out women. And he wanted diversity. And it’s all there. And he died of old age before he could take it anywhere. It wound up a multigenerational effort with a teeth sucking marathon of words awaiting readers.There are too many characters in focus by far. If he wrote only from the perspective of a dozen, I can’t help but feel it would feel more action oriented and less like an operatic ballad. As it is, you will walk in the shoes of enough individual characters to fill a city, and you will like a third of them at most. Which third? It will vary among readers. The writing is solid, and better than most authors I have read, but again, the effort of world building could have been tackled as effectively or more so if Jordan had narrowed the perspective slightly.There were hints at things that will never be revealed, things that could fill a more conventional four hundred page novel by themselves. And these little crumbs will vex you as you are left instead with the opinion of an Accepted over scrubbing pots.I love the world created by Robert Jordan, but that which I would most have loved to hear more about was eschewed in favor of frivolous character development of people in a tale whom are, by all accounts, extras on the set. My only hope is a canonized expansion via other more action-driven authors, I guess. I don’t like people as much as I like events in my fiction. R.A.Salvatore is a potent example of having one’s cake and eating it too, in the sense of character focus as well as action. If it must be so. And those books of his centered in the Forgotten Realms are half as thick. So it can demonstrably be done more effectively.Thanks for reading my ranting! You’re gonna enjoy this series of you’re into swords and sorcery, for sure. And maybe you’ll find me persnickety, and love it as it is. I love it myself, honestly. But I like what I like and think what I think.

Title: Great story line.
Review: Just started this series. So far I am enjoying books. I have a room full of all different types of series. Tolkien was my beginning. Enjoy Diana Gabaldans Highlander series. Own books and movies of both.All 3 are great authors. Have many others, notstuck in 1 type of books. Have all of Pattersons books to date, Harlan Corbin, Philip Margolin, Michael Connelly, Clive Cussler, and many others. All great authors. I am not a TV person books have been my entertainment since a young girl, sitting in a tree since my Dad preferred us outside than in house to read.Have not changed not in 70's. Not going to change seldom does a movie version really appreciate the story books convey. Enjoy yourself.

Review: Comprei esse set para dar de presente para uma pessoa que quer ler a coleção toda do the wheel of time em inglês. Pesquisei muito, e fiquei com receio de começar presenteando com livros de um jogo, e depois ter que mudar, deixando a coleção sem uniformidade, já que são tantos livros e estou presenteando aos poucos. Este set parece ter uma tiragem grande, é recente, acredito que pós lançamento da série, é bonito para presentear e não é tão caro quanto edições individuais e de capa dura. Podem comprar sem medo.
