I'm rereading the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan and just finished the second book in the series, The Great Hunt. Rereading the early books reminded me of how good the series was and why I've stuck with the series for so long(20 years!).
I think one of the main problems with the latter books was that there was no sense of moving toward an end or resolution to the main plot line. It didn't help that we had to wait 2-3 years before the next installment, so I think these latter books may be better when read straight through.

I've got a long row to hoe, so I'm taking a break with Ellen Kushner's mannerpunk novel, Swordspoint.
