THE WHEEL OF TIME Season One on AMAZON PRIME. This series
has its' naysayers but I'm perfectly fine with it. Wheel of Time aficionados/purists
may quibble with the skipped parts and changes, but most viewers can
appreciate what's here.
I have only read the first book in the massively epic series, "The Eye Of The World"
and thought that the script followed pretty closely to what happened there, although
the Amazon Prime series goes quite a bit beyond events of the first book.
However, this gave me incentive to someday pick them up and keep going.
I was discouraged after reading Volume 1 simply because it took me so long to
get through it (1000+ pages) and it was daunting to think that the succeeding
volumes were equally long.
However, that fantastic world-building and complexity and nuances of the storyline
make it newly attractive to me. I can only think the video series was responsible
for that. FOUR STARS.
