The Wheel of Time makes back pace and fun

I am, like many of you, Robert Jordan fan of the first hour. I like Robert Jordan's imaginative and conceptual power even if he sometimes became embroiled in ever smaller details and his hero thus acted as if in slow motion. On the other hand I like Brandon Sanderson's style, because it completely writes Fantasy differently, much closer, aimed at a target with as much imaginative power.
When I heard that Sanderson now continues Jordans work, I was very skeptical, because that seemed to be too blatant breach of style. I read the book through in 4 days. What presents itself as a contradiction in terms is a great experience in how a combination of different types of narrative distill the weaknesses of a work and combine the strengths of two great authors for a very good work. Brandon Sanderson manages to enrich Jordan style nor by re-joins the endless plotlines Jordan harmoniously while Jordan cherished quirks is taking over. Instead zupfender braids, ageless Aes Sedai or smile through gritted teeth, there are now up to 30 times in the book "sharply reined horses" or "sore beaten buttocks". If Jordan ever took almost 2 pages to describe the appearance of a building, shortens the Sanderson in favor of action to use a quarter and the time in which he focused a spotlight on the motivations and thoughts of several people.
But most interesting is: He has the courage to actually start something new and change the narrative:
He understands the impatience of the reader, it would have to 11 volumes stress buildup finally happen what and it reflects brilliantly in the Dragon rising impatience again. So the reader is amazed when our previously soft flushed patience dragon suddenly Aes Sedai falls into the word, because they produce too much for him blah, you even threatened with immediate execution, if it please him even more on your nerves. Instead of endless negotiations, he forces the Seanchan only 3 Chapter Pages to radical decisions, whips the Aiel and his companions from town to town, mobilized his armies as Alexander in a surprise attack and settles, quasi as a stopover, bills with him annoying Forsaken. All the. In an apocalyptic scenario, where evil reality aufribbelt increasingly where the voltage for ordinary people becomes tangible, where you at 700 pages suddenly breathless tension feels and really know that is not also a Sanderson exit in a book The only drawback for me is that Sanderson seem well, dazzling but not cope with Mat with Egwene with Perrin.
Who is not on a war footing with English, should buy the story because Brandon Sanderson writes simple and strong English without too many technical words or flowery embellishments.
This is the far most exciting wheel-the-time book. Branderson apparently intends a madcap trip through the final and I can not wait to read on at this rate. On the contrary, the manner of a George Martin schlafmützigen he wants to conclude and old enjoy this unique cycle is back.
