This one has been debated quite a bit recently because Jordan has stretched the series to what I believe is now 9 books and he isn't done yet. A general census seems to be that the 4 first books are very, very good. I personally enjoyed them a great deal. Believe me, you won't fall asleep! The books that follow are good, too, but Jordan has, in my opinion, lost focus. Its like he thinks of something new: new character, new situation, new twist, and he can't seem to bring it to a conclusion. My advice to you is try the first book and see how you like it and take it from there.
