Be cautious getting into the wheel of time series. Robert Jordan was great at build ups but terrible at climaxes and overly descriptive of things that didn’t really need that much description.
Also books 6 through 10 exist. Loving fans refer to these books as the slough.

I mean, I never really liked this critique of his work. Jordan’s world building was beautiful. The description added depth and color to every scene.

Again, agree to disagree. The political intrigues between the Aes Sedai and Asha’man and the Aiel all pay off in the end. Winter’s Heart was the only book that felt like it dragged, and mostly because it had been two years since I’d finished the prior entry.
If anything Book Three - Dragon Reborn - was the worst in the series, as it felt like a retread of the first two. By the time he was on The Shadow Rising, Jordan knew he was in it for the long haul and was ready to really flesh out all the nocks and cranies of this massive setting.
