A teacher recommended I read Eye of the World for a group project.  He said that if I liked Harry Potter, I would like the Wheel of Time.  He...was not wrong.  Anyway, I was the one in the group given the task of actually reading the book, and everyone else came up with the actual project.  A pretty good deal, in my opinion. Even after we gave the project, I was still in the world, so I picked up the Great Hunt afterward.
