I enjoy the WoT books immensely, likely due to the fact that I empathize with most of the characters. RJ got into the characters heads and made them real to me, they seemed like actual people and not type-written pieces of sentimental crap like half the known writers in the world do. Even if his books at times seemed perhaps a little drawn out and I will admit the flowery descriptions could have been done away with, WoT will always be one of my favorite series.
