What do you think of it? It’s on my list to try and read before the end of the year.
I watched the first 5 or so episodes of the Prime show a while ago and was interested but it didn’t keep me hooked.
I watched s1 and thought it was ok. A little too teen angsty for me, but the introduction to the universe was enough to get me to start the 1st book. A year and a half later, and 14 books in ( I'm halfway through the very last one) and I'm absolutely floored.
The whole series is nothing short of epic; the world building, magic system, character arcs, the story. One of my favorite reads so far, and certainly my most favorite in the fantasy genre.
It's a great series, but like many such stories, some of the books in the middle are a bit of a slog, but still a great series overall.
