New Spring

It's been a while since I have visited Jordan's world. This book I missed in my first reading of the series and it made sense to start with it in my second reading. Having done so, I would recommend skipping this if you are a new reader to WOT. Not because it's a bad book. It's just that it's a very slow start and deals with protagonists who while important are not the Crux of the story. Also too much time here gets spent on the setup of the white tower and it's political intrigue and while it is a good read now it would be a poor way to start. Reading it after the series gives me sense of completeness and the series would be poorer without it but not so much.
