Negative Positive
Title: Long, drawn out, with ignorant ,boring characters.
Review: This is the second Robert Jordan book I have read and will most likely be the last. The first book in the series was somewhat slow and didn't hold my attention too well but I thought I should give him a fair chance so I bought The Great Hunt.His characters get more and more whiney, they make stupid, ignorant decisions, and the constant denial of Rand that he is the Dragon Reborn is more than annoying.All in all, the book could have been about 300 pages less - less would definitely be more as far as Mr. Jordan is concerned. He is not a particularly talented writer, sticks with cliches quite often and creates his characters' voices in such a way that I just wanted to slap every one of them.For a good fantasy read, read Terry Goodkind's 'Wizard's First Rule' and the rest in that series. Phenomenal writing, beautifully drawn characters and a fun, nailbiting read.
