My brother has tried to get me into reading those since we found the first one in our public library in the early 2000s. Are they as good as he says? I've read The Sword or Truth series, are they similar?
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
