Reviews

"Jordan has come to dominate the world that Tolkien began to reveal."--The New York Times "Jordan is able to take...familiar elements and make them his own, in a powerful novel of wide and complex scope. Open religious and political conflicts add a gritty realism, while the cities and courts provide plenty of drama and splendor. Women have a stronger role than in Tolkien...Each character in this large cast remains distinct....Their adventures are varied, and exciting....The Eye of the World stands alone as a fantasy epic."--Locus "Robert Jordan has created a fantasy world as tangible and credible as history. He has a fine eye for detail and a vivid sense of drama."--Morgan Llewelyn, " The Eye of the World is the best of its genre." - The Ottawa Citizen "A splendid tale of heroic fantasy, vast in scope, colorful in detail, and convincing in its presentation of human character and personality." - L. Sprague de Camp "This richly detailed fantasy presents fully realized, complex adventure. Recommended."- Library Journal "This one is as solid as a steel blade and glowing with the true magic. Robert Jordan deserves congratulations." - Fred Saberhagen "One hell of a story. [It] kept me up past my bedtime for three nights running-- and it's been a long time since a novel's done that ." - Baird Searles, Asimov's Science Fiction "A future collector's item. Jordan has brought out a completely new allegory in a fantasy concept that goes even beyond this massive story, working with an artist's eye and the sense of responsibility of a serious historian." - Gordon R. Dickson "Classic oppositions are brought into play: initiates versus innocents, good versus evil, the spiritual power of women versus that of men. The travelers themselves are full of subtleties and shadows--ordinary villagers who, thrust into cosmic conflict, are unable to abandon their simple human desires and fears. "This intricate allegorical fantasy recalls the works of Tolkien because of its intensity and warmth." - Publisher's Weekly "Robert Jordan has come to dominate the world Tolkien began to reveal." - The New York Times "This has magic and pacing and detail and human involvement, with a certain subtlety of a presentation and a grand central vision. Robert Jordan... is a lot of writer!" - Piers Anthony "An exciting story; the reader is drawn in early and kept there until the last page. There is adventure and mystery and dark things that move in the night-- a combination of Robin Hood and Stephen King that is hard to resist... Jordan makes the reader care about these characters as though they were old friends; so much so that the reader will put down the book regretting the wait for the next title in the series." - Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "A classic fantasy tale of the struggle between light and darkness, good and evil, death and life. Goodness, life, and light are always in retreat, always about to be defeated, but never quite! Don't miss it!" - Andrew M. Greeley "Certainly a title I want to add to my permanent collection, and I shall be eagerly awaiting the sequel, which is promised at the end." - Andre Norton, Jordan is able to take ... familiar elements and make them his own, in a powerful novel of wide and complex scope. Open religious and political conflicts add a gritty realism, while the cities and courts provide plenty of drama and splendor. Women have a stronger role than in Tolkien....

One of my all time favorite books. Well written, it has happy moments and sad moments, but it's very enjoyable read.
Battle between good and evil. Characters come alive as you get into the book. It's one of the ultimate fantasy experiences one can have in a lifetime.

Great quality copy of my favorite book!
I am so excited to get this copy of The Eye of the World. I lent my copy years ago and never got it back. This copy is beautiful and like new even though it is the same as the one that I received as a gift in 1990. Ready for my sixth read of the Wheel of Time series now that my first book in the series has been replaced.

The Finnest Fantasy
Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time, book 1, The Eye of the World, brings you into a world of fantastical imagination. Exceptionally written, Robert Jordan takes you for a ride through his imagination. Written as if actually experienced,he takes you on a journy of high adventure. It is the classic battle between good and evil,and the fate of the world rests on the shoulders of one youth, Rand al'Thor. When four village youths are wisked away in the dead of night, it becomes a race against time to prevent the Dark One from breaking loose and reshaping the world into his image. But unknown to all, suspected by one, Rand is the worlds saviour, yet distined to go mad, from the taint on Saidin, the very power of the Dragon needed to save humanity from being swallowed by the shadow.

But unknown to all, suspected by one, Rand is the worlds saviour, yet distined to go mad, from the taint on Saidin, the very power of the Dragon needed to save humanity from being swallowed by the shadow. As you read, you can't help becoming fond of all the characters. Laughing at Mattrim Cauthon's mischievious sence of hummor, agreeing with Perrin t'Abara's methodical thought,to always think things through, being captivated by Egwene al'Vere's love of life and excitment, and understanding Rand al'Thor's seanse of duty towards his friends, father and his home Emond's Field. This is the book to read before all the rest. Only then can you truely understand and enjoy the whole story of "The Wheel of Time". The Wheel of Time is certainly a fantasy series that should have a place on everyones bookshelves. If you don't beleave me, go to the library and check it out. You'll most likely end up buying the whole series like I did. If you found this guide helpfull, please leave me a vote. Thank You. Copyright thehighwayman 11-2006

A great beginning to a well thought-out great story
This is book 1 out of 12 (so far, I believe). I had this recommended to me from my dad who does not recommend many. If you like fantasy (like Lord of the Rings or Eragon), this book has it ALL. It is about a boy, Rand and his three best friends, Mat and Perrin. They are from a small town called Two Rivers where not much else goes beyond their town (not many travelers and not many people who even leave). Until one day an enchanting women and her guard arrive, which is only followed by the next day where evil Trollocs and Fades attack their tiny unknown town. What I really loved about this book in particular was all the background mentioned. Have you ever read a book and wish there was more story (not excuss to detail, but plotting) to it? A little more added history, character ... This is book 1 out of 12 (so far, I believe). I had this recommended to me from my dad who does not recommend many.

A little more added history, character development, more significance that would have put the book over the edge?? I am not a fan of overly drawn out detail, that is not this book. this book puts just enough story that it flows swiftly and becomes quite the page turner. A build of suspense that makes you crave for more. Jordan paints a unique picture using words and phrases you never would have put together. I am currently reading book 2, the Wheel of Time and can't read it fast enough.
