I found it slow and dull and no likable characters. I've read plenty of fantasy where there wasn't much action, but the characters were good. Here, the characters had nothing going for them.
Well, by chapter 11 of a 96 chapter book you hadn't even gotten to the meat of the story yet.


Isn't it great there are so many books out there for all of us to like or dislike. If we all liked the same thing it would certainly get boring.

Nope. I got it from the library. So I didn't actually buy it.

Ending on a low note just sucks. The last book is lousy. At least give us August for a good book.

It was a good promo overall -- a baker's dozen of monthly books plus a couple bonus books. Glad they let us know it will return.

The book is not lousy. The book just didn't work for you when you read approximately 66 out of 684 pages (going off my print copy). I've had books that don't work particularly well for me, doesn't make them lousy.

Don't knock something unless you're willing to give it a try.

Just came to post that.

I think they have shortened the download period to 3 days (2/13-2/15/18), I may be wrong but I thought the old download period was a week. So download first, ask questions later.

It's been a while since I got a notice of a free book from them. I was glad I caught it. I saw that Sony is producing Wheel of Time to be a TV series. No indication of who is going to broadcast it yet.
