Search - The Dragon Reborn (The Wheel of Time, Bk 3)

Telling mostly of the females side and of Mat, this book continues the saga of books 1 & 2 without lapse of time! I can see how a wonderful book made it to the NY Times best seller list! It deserved it!

This was the best of the Wheel of Time novels, to my opinion, and I won't say anything about the plot for fear of giving it away. However, if you're looking for an action packed starting point into this series, I'd start with this one, it covers the other two and moves quickly.

Of the first three of this series, this one was the best, in my opinion, and definitely held my interest to pull me kicking and screaming into reading the fourth, and so on. I had no problem following the plot of this book, but also in being able to follow the story of each character on into the next book. You could start with this book and read forward without missing entirely too much, but if you're anything like me, you'll want to start with book 1.

The best thing about The Dragon Reborn in comparison to the first two books is pacing. The first two draaaaaaag on until suddenly things get ridiculously exciting in the last fifty pages. I felt like the Dragon Reborn did a better job of keeping things interesting throughout the whole book.

The plot is getting much more complicated. This is a great series.

Great book.
