That could be heresy in the eyes of Jordan fans, but it's just my opinion. I felt I got a lot more out of David Gemmel's books in a shorter period of time.

I'm with you on Robert Jordan. I read the first 5ish books and loved them--but there's only so much of the same thing you can read at once! By the time I wanted to come back to them--I'd forgotten many of the details and had to start over
...and then still only made it through about the first 5 books. As much as I can respect and admire any author who can create that kind of saga--I just don't know if I'll ever make it to the end *sigh*
