Alot of people like Song of Fire and Ice. I couldn't get into it, but thats ok. I would have liked to seen some OSCard on his list. He did get the Covenant series high on the list which was good.
I should probably be a little nicer, but Jordan has disappointed me as no author ever has. After reading the first 5 or so, I was saying Jordan was the best writer ever. Then the lack of plot advancement with every book that came out drove me insane. i was having to download plot summaries so I could figure out what in the world was going on in the new books. Now I simply refuse to read him. He will never be finished with WoT and even if he is I won't be there
The worst thing I have ever done is recommended a friend read RJ after I read the first 5. I apologize profusely every time I see him. Ok I will stop now on this thread.
