Just finished The Eye of The World
A few years ago I received three boxes filled with books. It was a gift, from a lady that I knew for some years. She was married with a man that till this day, is the biggest fantasy fan I've ever met. Sadly, he passed away in 2017, and those boxes were, let's say, their way to honor everyone that he loved.
And I got his favorite series, the series that he completed while he was on the hospital before passing away. The complete The Wheel of Time.
I knew how huge WoT was, how big and amazing, filled with details, names, events, everything. Even more packed the LOTR. So I knew that I should prepare myself before daring starting it.
So, I read Dune, LOTR, The Stormlight Archive and Mistborn, started the Black Company, all before opening The Eye of The World.
WoT was his crown jewel, his beloved, his mostly profound fantasy fan desire.
17 days ago I finally started The Eye of the World, and finished right now.
And holy mother, it was amazing. Perfect. at every detail.
I felt that sharing this here would be the right thing.
Thank you, Carlos.
