I’m thinking about starting The Wheel of Time, but I’d really like to hear from people who began reading it in their 20s or 30s—not as kids or teens.

A lot of the praise I see makes me wonder how much nostalgia plays into it, especially for those who grew up with the series. Since I’m 36, I’m curious how it holds up for someone coming in fresh as an adult.

If you started it later in life, did it still grab you? Was it worth the time commitment? I’d appreciate any honest thoughts, good or bad.
