Review: The Eye of the World

The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

So I finally decided to jump into this series. And yes like so many of the readers I was also kinda scared to jump into the series as not only are this series has 14 books but each book is more than 700 pages long so not only the series is long, each book is long too. But nonetheless here I am having started and finished the book.

Though I had heard that series is inspired by TLOR but which fantasy series is not inspired by the legend and this starts like fellowship but soon it is a different tale but the start reminded me about Game of Thrones as well, after all there was talk of Winter, Wolves, there was a Bran and more but again its it's own story and I enjoyed it very much.

The story starts in a village which is very remote from the main kingdom city and this is where our heroes and main characters live and this is where the first murmurings of the danger occur and very soon our band is collected and few more people join and then the merry band of normal people and magical people leave for a distant city and the story moves through the journey and towards the end. But not before going through all kind of trials and tribulations and all the better for it.

This was a nice read and I will definitely continue the series but not before doing something which I should have done a long time ago and that is finally yes finally before continuing with this series I shall be reading 'The Hobbit' and the "The Lord of The Rings" series and finally correct my shortcoming and read this original fantasy series and hopefully that would increase my enjoyment of this series and then Brandon Sanderson's own fantasy series.

So all the planning be there and you all know the saying about Best Laid Plans and all but yes you should definitely start on this wonderful journey and then just Keep on Reading.
