This second installment is in every aspect more well rounded then the first. While I enjoyed The Eye of The World, it’s pacing left much to be desired. It didn’t stop me from loving it but now I can see it was a bit of a struggle compared to this one.

We have more action, more story and character depth, we discover new places and lore throughout. Rand is his normal self but you start to truly grasp the levels to his character. This book strikes the adventurous streak we’ve been hoping for and it’s faster pace leaves you curious for what happens next around every corner. So I’m excited to see what’s in store for me!
