New Spring by Robert Jordan

This is the first Wheel of Time book I have read. Since it is a prequel, I was a little confused at first, as things are not fully explaing, assuming the reader already knows how things work in this wrold. But, with time I figured it out and I am glad I read this first. I guess I dont know for sure until I read more, but it felt like a really great setup, like it very well could have been written first.

What a page turner! As I read I became more and more amazed by the complexity of the story and the society created to tell it. And it has everything! Adventure, revenge, conspiracies, betrayal. And thats another good thing about reading the prequel first. I didnt know what was going to happen. I didnt know who Lan was and how he was going to become significant. When I reached the end I was actually shaking with excitement and anticipation for the adventure to come.
