In the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan who is your favorite char?
For me I have three. Mat Cauthon, Perrin, and Faile. I mean when I read I can't wait to get to the sections where these characters are.

1. You must find certain books to be really frustrating, then.
These books are in SERIOUS need of plot synopses in each later book.

2. Nynaeve al'Meara and Rand al'Thor
They seem like real people to me. I think Mr. Jordan did a pretty good job with them...

3. Isn't Nynaeve the one who has a really bad temper problem?

She reminds me of Paris Gellar on Gilmore Girls. She tells
it like it is and she doesn't give a shit what you think
about it.

6. Yup, that's her.
And I think she's a bit of a control freak, too, but I'm still amused by her. :)

5. Everybody loves Mat and Perrin
I also like Moraine, who is not dead, and the dethroned Grand Ajah whose name I can't remember at the moment

7. Logain, Mazrim Taim, Gareth Bryne
And ANY of the Forsaken.

I find that the main characters whine waaaay too much.

8. Thom Merrilin, followed by Mat Cauthon...
Thom often seems to be the only one with a bit of sense, and Mat usually manages to amuse me.

9. I'm not sure I'm going to be able to finish those books.
Jordan is in serious need of an editor. I mean, I just can't take another two-page description of what Nynaeve is wearing fer Chrissakes. MOVE THE STORY ALONG . . . you have one dress description, you have a hundred.
