Just Finished The Series
I started listening to the audio books in November 2022 on my drives to and from work. It has definitely been a long journey. I had a few thoughts that I wanted to share.
Several moments in this series are some of the most beautiful things I've listened to. Rand overcoming the darkness on Dragonmount. Nyneave rallying people to Lans cause. A whole lot of moments towards the end of the last battle. I can't remember a book series making me cry so often! Pretty much any of the quotes of "history" books written in the fourth age. Especially the one at the end of CoT about riding to the sound of thunder.
Also I somehow missed that Asmodean was killed in Book 5 and spent the last few books wondering if he was Taim, or Logain, or even Androl who seemed to have a lively past. Asmodeans fate was the first thing I googled after finishing!
