So before I begin rereading this one: It was a very long time ago when I read this. Thirteen or fourteen of something. I remember loving this because it was one of the first fantasy in which men and woman were treated (somewhat) equel (explanation: - Nyneave was my favourite. Although even then I didn't really like may-dec love. And I think her and her love interest - I don't really remember about the other characters. When reading the blurb I was like... Mat who? - Perrin I remember vaguely mainly because of his I read this in dutch... So hearing it in English will make for WTF moments... I had the same thing with Harry Potter. Some parts didn't 'feel' right... And so it begins! I had already read this once, and this was my second read. I liked the first book, it was an excellent experience. I liked the prologue part a lot. The series is good for about 6 books and then it was extended by about 3 books. It could have been reduced and made crisper. I felt a lot of struggles about Elayne and Egwene were not needed (atleast I did not enjoy them). geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

I must admit I always found the 'three male leads' thing to be a bit of a red herring. It's presented that way in the first two or three books, but by the end of the series I think it's clear that the two main protagonists are Rand and Egwene, and their stories and the differing ways of how they cope with the situations they are thrown into are paralleled against one another very well. In the 80s when I first read this guff I sort of liked what Jordan was trying to do with the male/female duality in the series; in 2021 I don't think he had enough writing firepower to pull it off. Instead of recognising the complexities of both men and women as human characters, he had a tendency to retreat to stereotypes and comedies of manners based on those stereotypes. It is quite impressive that he did built a fantasy world where women have as much (if not more) power and authority than men and gave reasons for it, rather than presenting us with another faux-medieval, "everything sucks if you're not a tough white dude," kind of world. But that doesn't really work if half your characters (male and female) behave very stereotypically and stupidly.
The WoT series is stuck in the 80s. It's a clunky, poorly written and plotted artifact as well having all too many plots depending on the protagonists being thick.
As for how much of RJ's work is in the last 3 Sanderson’s books: Most of the three prologues, almost all of AMoL's epilogue, a lot of Mat's stuff in ToM and a lot of Egwene's stuff in TGS were written by Robert Jordan directly. According to Sanderson, the biggest problem was that the notes were very detailed in the ultimate fates of characters and what role they played in the Last Battle, but not very detailed at all in how they necessarily got from the end of Book 11 to that position. That required some invention on his part. But with no alternative available, there was no way around it.
Books written by Sanderson are so juvenile, so atrocious, so pathetic that these books make “The Eye of the World” look like written by Joyce. ( )
