Better then EOTW, TGS or TDR?!?! ajfurst Send a noteboard - 19/12/2010 01:55:06 AM
Just ignore the Shaido parts. The rest is a decent read, even if "very little if anything happens" (oh, the horror!). Certainly better than EOTW or TGS or TDR.

TEOTW starts us on the journey, plenty of action, world building, interesting characters met for the first time.

TGS - monumental stuff up about how it and TOM are structured around plot lines instead of chronologically, and not by RJ, but still a lot more action, character development and interesting things then COT.

TDR - Rand becomes the TDR to the world at large, takes Callandor, Mat starts turning from annoying git into the best character in the series.

I don't get how anyone can rate COT above any other WOT time book. Even TPOD was action and character driven overload compared to COT.

It's not actually that bad if you're not an angry, resentful, bitter person. - 18/12/2010 11:54:54 AM 764 Views
