The first three books form a wonderful arc. Without a doubt there is much more ahead (11 books!) but here is the end of the first movement of the symphony. And it in no way disappoints. Characters are not only revealed, but they are in the process of changing. Events progress, characters change-some for the better and some...who can say? As the audience we continue to appreciate why some characters are the way they are, and we see how events and choices are shaping some characters that we already know. Characters make mistakes, but never is it anything less than understandable and through it all the story progresses. Even the audience does not yet see everything, though we see more than any one character, and the balance that Jordan attains between our knowledge and the characters' is wonderful. Really, really good.
