So that's the 3rd read.
It still deserve more than 5 stars

Still, this book is clearly a classic for a reason.
Robert Jordan is a master at using common themes in unexpected ways. ...more

I haven't read all that much epic fantasy. But if this book is an indication of what I've missed, I will be reading more. This was almost non-stop action throughout its over seven hundred pages. I really enjoyed this book.
