Narration Toward Books The Great Hunt (The Wheel of Time #2)
I say this all of the time, but reading old school fantasy books is like reading with a friend. And they remind me of when I was young. I don't know why. Maybe because I'm old school.
Happy Reading!

Mel ❤Ive tried, I really have. I just dont think that Jordans Wheel of Time series is for me. I want desperately to read it in its entirety and love it, but Im roughly 1500 pages in and its already a struggle. The sad thing is, the plot and the world building are actually very interesting, as is the magic system and the mysteries it holds. But I just cant seem to get past the characters. The way women view men, even while fighting over them, is so insanely irritating. The main perspective characters
And it shall come to pass that what man made shall be shattered, and the Shadow shall lie across the Pattern of Age, and the Dark One shall once more lay his hand upon the world of man. Women shall weep and men quail as the nations of the earth are rent like rotting cloth. Neither shall anything stand nor abide...Yet one shall be born to face the Shadow, born once more as he was born before and shall be born again, time without end. The Dragon shall be Reborn, and there shall be wailing and
If youve read a few reviews by me you might know that Im a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson. This is one reason that 2016 is the year of the Wheel for me since Sanderson finished out this series. As I move along in this series I can see how BS got some of his roots from Jordan. They distinctively have different voices to be sure but one of the reasons Im enjoying The Wheel of Time series is because of the intricate world building that is going on and the layers that are being set up.This book is
The second book in the series, some people complain there are some influences of J.R.R. Tolkien in the first book; this book is where Robert Jordan found his own voice. For the first time in centuries The Great Hunt is called; its purpose is to find the legendary Horn of Valere which calls the greatest heroes of all times to the battle yet again. Countless number of people wander around looking for it. Rand and company know exactly where the Horn is, but they might have trouble reaching it. It
Okay I'm sadly admitting defeat and DNFing this.I don't feel like continuing for the moment. Not because it's necessarily bad -the beginning had a few exciting moments- but I lost all connection to the story and the characters. Especially the characters who act like pouting children most of the time. From what my trusted reading buddies tell me, this won't improve anytime soon so I'm putting this book away... for now.
Death is lighter than a feather, duty heavier than a mountain.Reading this volume, you realize that the LOTR foundation remain just that: the foundation. The story expands in a multitude of directions, even if this volume is centered around the Horn of Valere.New characters appear, the old ones are growing. The Pattern draws one to the other more closely. Rand is far from the sheepherder he used to be even if he denies still what he is, Perrin is finally accepting his Old Gift, Mat is still
