Towers of Midnight Wheel of Time Book Thirteen Robert Jordan Brandon Sanderson 9780765325945 Books

Team Sanderson/Jordan knock another one out of the park with the penultimate volume of the Wheel of Time series. While The Gathering Storm was a wonderful book, I can see Sanderson's growth as a writer in Towers of Midnight. He's taken a lot of hard material and turned it into something that I can just almost pretend that Jordan wrote himself.

The biggest difference from Jordan's own books is that in ToM the pacing is break-neck.

If you're a fan of the series, you'll find moments to laugh and moments to cry and moments of extreme and wonderful emotion. I hate to sound cliched, but for those of us who have grown up with these characters, we start seeing some of the scenes that we've been waiting for for many years.

In my opinion, few other writers living could've pulled off so elegantly what Sanderson has accomplished in Towers of Midnight. Bravo! Onto Tarmon Gai'don!

Towers of Midnight Wheel of Time Book Thirteen Robert Jordan Brandon Sanderson 9780765325945 Books Reviews

I started reading The Wheel of Time series ages ago right after the first book had been published, I really enjoyed the first five books of the series, but after that things seemed to bog down immensely. Many of my friends felt the same way and most of them gave up on reading it entirely. I even heard one of my friends refer to the series as "The Waste of Time". However I am stubborn and stuck with the series and while I never did feel it managed to attain the brilliance of the first five books again, I would still find hidden gems within books that made it worthwhile. When Mr. Jordan died, I was very sad and assumed I would no longer read the books even if the series continued.

One of my younger friends who had read Mr. Sanderson's Mistborn trilogy convinced me to give these last books a try. I must admit, I have been greatly impressed with Mr. Sanderson's ability to pick up the series and inject new life into it. Towers of Midnight was so good that as I came nearer and nearer the ending, I started to actually slow down my reading because I was afraid it would end. That is quite a tribute from me, usually I race through books, but I couldn't stand the thought of this one being over. Of course all good things must come to an end and this book did too. Now I look anxiously forward to the last book in the series.

The characters are just as vivid and vital as they were at the start of the series. It was particularly great to see Mat and Perrin get their due as major characters. It was also a pleasant surprise to see the return of a major character who had been gone a long time near the end of this book. I won't say any more for fear of giving away spoilers to those who still haven't read this excellent book. I recommend this book wholeheartedly to those who truly appreciate high fantasy and brilliantly developed characters!
Perrin for the first time since he was dealing with Whitecloaks and Trollocks in Two Rivers has a compelling story line. I loved the scene where he returns to the forge. In the last several books I dreaded the chapters regarding him, but now he is finally starting to shine. His timeline is out of synch with others for portions of this book which is the aspect of the book I found most irksome, though considering how much he needed to do here, perhaps it allowed the previous book to be better than it could have been had Perrin's story been included.

Several other key characters have important moments, Matt facing multiple past foes, Aviendha becoming critically important to the Aiel, the borderlander army meeting Rand, Egewene juggling internal and external threats and multiple love stories progressing.

There is so much happening in this fantastic book. The last battle has begun.
Brandon Sanderson is one of my favorite writers. One of the reasons I even picked up the wheel of time series in the first place was based on an interview of Sanderson, in which, he explained where some of his original inspiration had come from.

When I found out he had also contributed to the final portions of this epic tale I had no choice to give it a shot.

Sanderson has done a great job helping close the saga. He makes you fall in love with Mat, Perrin, and many of the characters through their ending days. He and Jordan have developed such relatable characters that you find yourself dying to find out what will happen to them next.

Sanderson has a style of his own and knows how to leave chapters on cliffhangers where you can't help to get to the next chapter for the character you were reading about. The next thing you know you at killing a whole book in one day. His writing style is insane.

If you have made it this far in the series, you know it lagged a bit in pacing in the middle books, but in the final three it has picked up momentum and you have to follow it all the way to The Final Battle yourself.

Enjoy!
A letdown from the previous volume. In this vast book, there are some absolutely fantastic sequences, but they are drowned out by hundreds and hundreds of pages devoted to character arcs that are just not vital to the story or to my interest. Good Lord, fudge the wolf dream! Yet, this devours so much of the book. Fudge Elayne and her politick-
tick-ticking. She’s a nothing character. Sanderson seems to have adopted some of Jordan’s frustrating writing habits. The novel ended well, though, with momentum and discovery. Happy to engage the final volume. Happy to get closer to the end of this whole, gigantic, hugely-flawed, bloated series, The Wheel of Too Much Time.
