I only read it for the first time earlier this decade. The series goes through about four distinct phases. If you liked Eye, you’ll almost certainly also like books 2 and 3, which are very similar in style. After that, it goes from being high fantasy adventure into more of a political intrigue. Then it expands into a much larger cast, fleshing out the world. Parts of this third phase are what’s often referred to among fans as “the slog”, because the pacing slows down a lot and it can really drag to read. Personally on my first read-through I didn’t find this nearly as bad as I expected, but I did notice it a fair amount at times. Then the fourth phase happens after Robert Jordan dies and Brandon Sanderson takes over finishing the series takes it back to the feeling of phase 2, but wrapping up and pushing towards a dramatic climax and conclusion.
I think it’s reasonably likely that if you liked 1, you’ll like the series as a whole. But it’s possible that the shift from phase 1 to 2 could break the interest for you, if that’s not a change that vibes with you.
