 | coalition (0) 08/26/2008 | I feel like the characters are real and are experiencing real emotions. The plot is something new and different there are no traditional fantasy creatures no goblins, dwarves, elves or goblins He creates his own universe and it rocks.

 | bagman (0) 06/19/2008 | WOT is an excellent plot and story but it is way too drawn out in the middle part of the series lacking content worth writing this story could have been done better in 6-8 books total.

 | JugglerPeter (0) 05/16/2008 | Jordan created a world more vivid and full of detail than any fantasy writer ever has. Unfortunately his plots advanced at a snail's pace leaving many (most?) readers frustrated at having to wait another year for another book. The fact that his books were consistently best sellers even though fans complained is a testament to how well crafted his characters and worlds were. People who wrote scathing reviews of his books nonetheless continued to read them because RJ's writing style draws you in so effectively. What I love about the WOT is that it is a single contained story rather than a complete story with a second tirllogy added on to the end that was not conceptualized until the publishers asked for more books. RJ had more stories/worlds in him, and it's too bad we'll never get a chance to read them.

 | lordfwah (0) 11/25/2007 | Impressive series which is true to detail. Rather than having one story thread giving the impression there is only one interesting thing going on in the world like so many other fantasy books there is a wealth of absorbing interesting plots which further bring the characters to life in a vivid way. Always good to read, whether its the 2nd time...or even the 5th. too bad we might never read the 12th... RIP RJ

 | irishgit (152) 07/04/2007 | Wrote some pretty crisp and muscular prose when he was doing some Conan stories.
His endless fantasy epic, however, is another cup of fur. Turgid, over-blown, pompous prose, unengaging characters and an absolute tin ear for dialogue.
Get a better editor, Bob.

 | Diiino (0) 07/04/2007 | Absolutely Fantastic stuff and what the genre is all about. He nearly crooses over into historical fiction his world is so real. Hard to believe that only two years have passed in the WOT world while we have been reading. I just wish he would hurry up and finish......

 | ErnestT (0) 06/10/2007 | Robert Jordan like many other writers did a great job with his first couple of works. After that he totally looses track of the storyline, and creates a horde of totally useless characters that he describes in nauseating detail. I can't believe he is near the top of the list!

 | decado-firefist (0) 02/25/2006 | Personally i would have chosen great, but the D*** WOT series aint finished yet. So i'll just have to hold on till its done then return with my final update. Who knows, it may drop depending on what happens at TARMON GAIDON.

 | ahz (3) 03/19/2005 | The Wheel of Time is extraordinary and very unfairly bashed. Good reading 1 to 10!
