The only similarity here to the Aes Sedai is the fact that the Red Adjah would collar male channelers that would allow them to control the mans power until they can gentle him at the White Tower. Unlike the WOT the Sisters of the Light's main job is to "train" wizards (stealing them from their families, stick them in a collar that produces pain and keeps them from using magic when undesired). There is one supreme ruler of the Sisters of the Light who is called the Prelate which is much like the Amyrlins in the WOT. The Sisters of the Light are a Dominate group, that have influence on rulers of the land. The first similarity is the magic system, especially the Sisters of the Light compared to the Aes Sedai. I am going to put the rest in spoiler so I do not ruin the books for people. However why do I keep linking the WOT with the SOT when I am reading them? Its almost too much. I also found many similarities between these books. However the next series that I read was the Wheel of Time and I believe that it blew the Sword of Truth out of the water. I could talk forever about this book because again I enjoyed it. until I found how how bad their controlling mechanism was for young wizards in training, the radahan. I liked the Sisters of the Light who lived at the Palace of the Profits. These were some bad mama jamas I loved reading about different types of wizards and their magics. My favorite magical creatures in the books were the Mord Sith, they were creatures that could capture your magic and use it against you to control/cause pain. I really enjoyed Richard Rahl's journey into his wizard powers, and how he came to know his grandfather on his mothers side.
