I haven't read the wheel of time, but I read the first book of the belgariad the other night. Here's what happens:
>traveling through generic countryside
>gambits to avoid being tracked (that fail 100% of the time)
>vague references to the big prophecy (don't read the prologue, because knowing what was being alluded to was frustrating as fuck)
Also the female characters are pretty rough. The aunt is consistently a bitch to the mc, there's a woman who's a snarky bitch to her pretty cool guy husband incessantly, the aunt is also a bitch to a queen who has an interest in magic. There's even a loli bitch at the beginning. In future books they're probably redeemed but for a seasoned misogynist such as myself I'm not willing to find out.
