I'd rather read the Karaetheon Cycle!

>> No.1580079

Yes. I like it very much.

>> No.1580138

The first four or so books are alright.
And then you realize it would've been a far better book series if it was concentrated on a single main character.

although i totally disagree i respect the validity of your opinion

Another one of these? Look at the wiki.

That is satisfactory sir, otherwise we would've had to resort to fisticuffs.

>>1580149
Indeed, sir. Although I have no compunctions about entering into a contest for the sake of the defense of my honor, it is always a desideratum that two gentleman should come to terms peacefully, and not be forced to resort to arms for satisfaction.

The wiki is weaksauce I should make an extended list, I've read ~200 fantasy titles my list is going to be a lot more comprehensive than what's up there, hell there isn't even a separate category for angsty teen fantasy and erotic dick tease fantasy up there.

>> No.1580161

Almost done with Towers of Midnight. Was a lot better then I was expecting actually.

How much toh has /lit/ gained today?

>> No.1580165

>>1580163
Yeah seriously

I mean, the list is a fine starting point, but...

>> No.1580188

Not really. I keep having to start over each time I try to read them. So far I've only made it through book four and I've tried off and on for almost ten years. I don't know why I can't get into them, they just seem to move so slow. I just want to see Rand turn all pimptastic, and it keeps not happening. Sword of Truth is more philosophical, definitely preferred by me.

>> No.1580213

Got to book 8 or 9 and then got thoroughly sick of it,

With Rand and his emo antics, you HAVE THREE GIRLFREINDS YOU BASTARD QUIT BITCHCING, Lan morphing into a pussy, And random charachters from three books ago popping up and the book expecting me to remember them, and the endless descriptions of the charachter's cloathing ''she wore a red frock with a <skips paragraph>

On the other hand he is doomed to die - and going insane - and he is the latest iteration of someone whose previous incarnation more or less completely fucked up the world . He has pretty good reasons to be emo IMO.

>> No.1580228

>>1580220
Good Point, He does have a certain right to be Emo, It's just annoying how much the books focus on that

>> No.1580230

>>1580228
Oh yeah absolutely, Emo-rand was annoying as hell, and (book 12 spoilers) I'm pretty sure EVERYONE in the fandom was rejoicing when emo-rand died and Jesus-rand took over. Jesus-rand was also a blast to read.

>> No.1580324

>>1580230
Jesus rand sounds interesting {spoiler} Anyone think I should bother trying to get back into the series?
