Wheel of time is one series I wanted to like but just couldn’t get through after a certain point.
Like the author wasn’t quite sure where he wanted to go so just didn’t go anywhere at all for a long time..
I was told books 1-4 and then the last few were amazing. I wasn't enraptured by the first few, so I put it down as well. I didn't want to slog through 5 more books in the hopes I'd potentially enjoy 4 more.
Sounds about right, I think I got too bored to continue on 5. I seem to recall 4 was a bit slow too but it just dropped right off after.
Life is too short for a slog.
The last three because Brandon Sanderson wrote them?
Can you rephrase the question? I'm not sure I follow.
Oh, they didn't elaborate on why they liked the last few, only that they did.
Só did I. Two stars for book one, couldn't even rate book 2, DNF book 3 and never touched it again. It actually made me second guess other books. "If you like TWoT you'll love X" always make me think twice about reading something
