I watched it all because I read the books and was very curious to see how they handled it. I was somewhat disappointed but ultimately thought it was 'okay' and will continue with next season. It's definitely no GoT if Amazon's intent was to duplicate the success of that show. The books were better but it was really a 6 book series masquerading as a 14 book series. There were long stretches of nothing of note happening which culminated in an entire book of nothing happening (Book 10) before picking up steam for the last 4 books - the last 3 written by a different author due to the death of the original. There was a lot to like in the books, but you sometimes had to wade through a mess to find the plot.Sadly I dropped this (Wheel of Time) after 2 episodes. I'm sure some here love the series and the books. The overall atmosphere did not grab me and the treligs, terlogs, whatever they are were just too, eh. I could see the books being better.
