Title: The book goes ever on and on...
Review: Jordan's seventh book adds nothing to this endless stream of mass-market drivel. Most of the people who I know that started the series gave up long ago, as I now have. Jordan's works are written in a manner remniscent of something my D&D buddies would have concocted after an all-night session back in eighth grade - which is appropriate, considering the target audience. Just think, the approximately four-star average review of this book was created from the opinions of those who liked Jordan's previous works enough to drudge through the first six books. Factor in the large number of people who gave up on the series, and the average score would be far, far lower.And please quit comparing Jordan with Tolkien. Comparing those to is similar to comparing the Spice Girls with Mozart, Stephen King with Edgar Allen Poe, or 'Independance Day' with 'Casablanca'.In each case, the former is good clean fun, and a reflection of our time. The later are eternal.
