Ok, wow. People were right. The world did really get a lot more fleshed out and I'm so thrilled to know it doesn't stop here! I always love to take my time with these books (even if I think I take too long) and somehow I still end up feeling like I didn't grasp the entirety of the plot/worldbuilding/details (hopefully because things are left to be explored later and not because I'm dumb). I really loved this one, such an amazing sequel and it ends on such a high. Having absolutely no clue on where this is going is definitely the way to go with this series. So many magic systems, incredible side characters, small arcs and plot devices. What a fantasy feast!

I'm incredible proud to say I've finished the first book in The Wheel of Time series. I feel like I just climbed a mountain when in reality I've just barely reached the base, looking at it from afar. This was a very good book, not the best fantasy I've read, if I'm being honest, but being the first book in a total of 15 (with the prequel), I know for sure that this is just a small taste of what's to come and it feels amazing to realise I have absolutely no idea what is still ahead. My plan was to read at least a book a month, but this one took me an entire month to finish because I felt no need to rush it. So excited for the next one. Light help me.
