    The Wheel of Time.

    I was very happy to find this. I heard complaints that it's just a Tolkien clone and Jordan doesn't portray women well. But what I found was kind of a relic. It's an excellent fantasy series that probably couldn't be written again. Wish we had more like it.

      If you don't like to be sad, at least wait to forget most of it before watching the Prime Video series.

        The series is also cancelled, so no point wasting time watching it either.

        A great IP that they completely fucked up. Proof that the industry is really struggling.
