I haven't read sword of truth and I actually started reading because I am a Sanderson fan. But they are good. A bit slow to be honest, and apparently it will get even slower, but the world is fucking awesome. The world is set in an age which lasted for 3000 years, and there are significant things that lead to the creation of this age and Robert Jordan makes it feel like so. The world has a deep fucking history.
There is a part in book 4 where the main character gets to know events of the past (This is the best I can say without spoilers) and that had me in tears man. I would tell you to read upto there at least, then decide. I know it's a long journey but I am loving it.

It is a long journey but absolutely worth it. I have read them through several times, easily one of the best experiences I have had in literature. It can be slow going at times, but that is part of the experience. After all, life before death, strength before weakness, JOURNEY before destination.
I can't wait for Stormlight 5. Adolin and Kaladin are people who if existed in real, I would die to protect them.
SAME. I'm re-reading them for the umpteenth time right now, just started Oathbringer the other day
If I do read them, I'll need to find a German copy, which I can thankfully order from the bookstore near my apartment 😁
The Pillars of Time, the third book from The Sword of Truth series, played with time shifts, but only for tension building purposes. These explained how one character was following in the tracks of the main character. The second was far more gruesome, still to this day it gives me chills.
When I read it brought you to tears, I added the series to my must read list! I just hope it's been well translated, unfortunatly not all media is.
The link on your comment doesn't work.
The link is a magnet link actually, so it gets picked up by a torrent client. But the link I posted is for the English version.
Happy journeying the story of the Pattern of the Age. After I finish this series I might look into The sword of truth.
