I just finished the latest Wheel of Time book, The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson.

I really enjoyed it, but I was a bit lost at times because it’s been so long since I read the previous book. One criticism that I have to agree with about the Wheel of Time is that there are too many characters, and too many of their names are too similar. The most egregious example I noticed was that the end of one chapter talked about the character Shemerin in the rebel Aes Sedai camp and the next chapter featured the character Sheriam in the rebel Aes Sedai camp. Definitely not the same character, but it took me a few pages to catch on… Even with the problems, I enjoy this series and think this was a great addition to it.
