I found the first novel unbearably dull when I read it about ten years ago

i finished book 11 a week after it was released.
book 11 was actually pretty good, but his writing got so bad for a while, but i always enjoyed the story, so i persevered. | |

Has anyone ever read Jordan's early Conan novels? Brainless fun.
