I’m not saying nobody desires to read it, I’m referring to how difficult it is to read because it’s so wordy for some people. It’s longer than the Deathly Hallows, has hundreds of characters, and the main characters only scratch the surface. Not negative things if you ask me, just these are complaints other people have.
If you can get through it, the rest of the series is fantastic. TEotW suffers from a period of time when fantasy publishers pretty much demanded LotR, so everyone wrote LotR.
That series took me something like 5-6 years to read, broken in the middle with Game of Thrones. WOT gets extremely dry by book 9 and Robert Jordan is tied up in something like two dozen plot lines with no way out.
I only finished the series because I was overseas with nothing to do except listen to audiobooks on my time off for a year and a half. The last 3-4 books being written by Brandon Sanderson was the best thing that could have happened to the series.
The Wheel of Time: Eye of the World
Not for a lack of trying
Are you kidding? This is a great book! I’ve probably read it about 10 times.

The series is good, idk about the first few books in themselves though
I think that if you are willing to buy something like that, you’re probably also willing to read it.

Sounds like a skill issue to me /s
