Product Description

Review

On very rare occasions, very talented storytellers create worlds that are beyond fantasy; worlds that become realities. Robert Jordan has (- MORGAN LLYWELYN )

Epic in every sense (THE TIMES )

[With} The Wheel of Time, Jordan has come to dominate the world Tolkien began to reveal (THE NEW YORK TIMES )

The Eye of the World and its sequels in Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series show the extent to which one can go with a traditional fantasy framework, with added gusto. Stock elements are abound: a reluctant hero--in fact five humble village folk--plucke (To his publisher's credit, Jordan's books are fortunate among fantasy novels in not having covers that look like an explosion of a teenager's bedroom. The absence of such lurid artwork is, perhaps, part of their appeal.’ )

Product Description

With the full cooperation of the Jordan estate, "The Eye of the World "has been turned into a stunning comic book series written by Chuck Dixon and illustrated by Chase Conley. The first Robert Jordan graphic novel, "New Spring: the Graphic Novel," was a "New York Times "bestseller.

"The Eye of the World: The Graphic Novel, Volume One "begins Robert Jordan's epic fantasy tale by introducing Rand al'Thor and his friends Matrim and Perrin at the spring festival. Moiraine Damodred and Lan Mandragoran appear, and almost before Rand knows it, he and his friends are fleeing his home village with Moiraine, Lan, and Egwene al'Vere, the innkeeper's daughter, who wishes to become an Aes Sedai. The conclusion of this volume leaves the travelers on the road to Baerlon, barely ahead of the pursuing Trollocs and Draghkar. As they run for their lives, Moiraine and Lan begin to teach the young people what they need to know to survive in this dangerous world.

I have received the book and am very satisfied. Too many people are whining without any valid reason.

"Not a leather-bound book."
- It was never advertised here as a leather-bound book and the picture also clearly showed from day one that it was a standard slipcased hardcover.

"No additional maps, colors, etc."
- It was never advertised here has having plenty of fancy maps, colors, etc.

"Mediocre to adequate materials."
- The book is just like the one on the picture and the quality is more than adequate. It is certainly not mediocre.

"Not a limited edition"
- I will have to agree here. Unless the editor simply meant 'we're only printing one limited batch and we won't print more in the future' then it is a limited edition. The book itself is not numbered so it's impossible to tell if it's really a limited edition or not.

So, unless you only want this book because it says 'limited edition', I recommend this book. The content is good and it will look great on your shelves.

I unpacked the book today.

I read its descriptions on Amazon before placing an order.
It said /Limited Edition: Wheel of Time Book 1 [Special Edition] [Hardcover]; Publisher: Orbit; Slipcased Hardback edition/
No mention of leather bound edition or anything extra. Standard hardback in a slip case.

Well, if I were to comment on this product, I would have to say that it fits the description given by Amazon. Too bad I was too quick to believe the description given by the publisher who wrote that it was a leather-bound edition. But failing is a learning experience, I will definitely not believe the publisher ever again before having read the review before-hand. But apart from that, it's still a very good hardback edition, good paper quality and entrancing story... I now have to read them all over again if I want to slack my renewed thirst for epic drama on a scale never before attained. Hope the last one gets to be finished on time. I can't believe it's been nearly 15 years I came upon this beautifully crafted piece of story telling. Sometimes I wonder if fate will play a nasty trick on poor me and will let die not knowing the End.
So, to sum it up nicely, I will say that once my initial disappointment faded, I got to enjoy this particular edition and I now find myself thinking it's worth every buck I spent to get it.
