I can see why this book/series has inspired so many fantasy writers since it was published, but reading it for the first time with a solid background in fantasy, it was slow and a little boring in parts. The entire first section (of four) was so slow I almost put the book down. Only my curiosity about why this series has been so enduring got me to push through it.
