I know it is supposed to be but I listened to the first 7 books trying to get into it as people seem to regard it fairly highly but I just don't understand the appeal of the 13 year olds humour personally.

I think like discworld I will give the wheel of time a try and see how I like it cause if I don't try it I may miss out on something I enjoy. I do appreciate your input though and have tempered my expectations some what as prior to this I had only heard that is is "amazing"
