always liked Thom Merrilin, Matrim Cauthon, Loial, the Aiel, the Seanchan, the Forsaken, the Myrddraal and the Ways...
looking forward to finishing the entire fucking thing before Winds of Winter comes out and Game of Thones gets cancelled...

Enjoyed the first 5-6 books then they started to suck. Then I realized they all sucked from the beginning.
No character development at all
Rand Al Thor is the absolute clichee of the troubled fantasy protagonist
All characters are basically caricatures
I feel like Robert Jordan let too much of his Christian beliefs seep into the books
there's so much more

been riding high on how shit plays out for weeks now.
Brandon Sanderson, seriously, motherfucker breathed new life into the series.
smallest of small gripes, how Davram Bashere was treated and how little Thom factored into the finale...
AND
how Sanderson couldn't quite find a proper voice when it came to Aviendha.

shut up James.
no one actually believes any of this years-too-late hundreds of millions of dollars worth of bullshit is going to land with anything other than a popcorn fart thud.
