Title: Boring at best
Review: I am a huge fantasy fan, and picked up this book because of a literay comparison on the back cover to Tolkien. I was eager to be swept away into a complex world only to be sorely disappointed. The story line has borrowed extensively from Tolkien and in itself is too simply written for me. The characters were not developed enough and nothing lasting or truly exciting happened at all in this book. By page 600 I was straining to keep my eyes open and praying for something to happen and was left with nothing. Jordan has thrown in references to the past ages of the Breaking of the World and alludes to historical context to place the current setting. However alludes is all he does it was like he was throwing random references in anywhere and would not elaborate to build up a good story. This book in no way is comparable at any level to Tolkien or any other great book. This book would be good for children I suppose because that is the level of the writing in this novel.
