I'm brand new to this series and mostly just came because Brandon Sanderson wrote the last few books so I wanted to see what it was. I listened to the first book first ofc, and just finished this one, the second in the series.
First, if you are deciding whether to pick THIS NARRATOR or the other one, I picked the other one for the first book, and found this one (Pike) to be much better except omg that terrible accent for the Seanchan at the end. I wanted to give 6 stars until I heard that; it ruined the ending. down to 4 I guess. A great narrator except for that...
Second, I liked this book more than the first one; it still gets very slow at times but it is a bit more exciting and the characters begin to get over themselves a tiny bit. If you liked the first book you'll like this one more.
I hope they keep getting better because I can see the inspiration for a lot of books ive read that came after this but so far the series is not what id call 'good' yet. Im barely rooting for anybody and if the world being doomed is a certain outcome with the whole circular time thing im not sure why I or the characters should be hopeful. Well i need something to listen to so we'll give book 3 a go.
