WoT is not "Well paced". It's egregiously slow and long winded. Robert Jordan should have been beaten with a chair for the bullshit he put his readers through.
It's a 14 book epic, that pretty much comes with the territory. You get the details, world building, character's nuance, etc. it's not all moving the plot forward.
It would have lost nothing if it were trimmed to 7 books. It's only 14 because no one smacked the author with a ruler.
