Title: It just keeps going on and on and on...
Review: In "Crossroads of Twilight", Robert Jordan firmly establishes the Wheel of Time series as the "Days of Our Lives" of speculative fiction. All of the cliches are there - the meaningful stares, the obsession with trivialities, the constant repetition, even the resurrection of departed characters.In the 700 pages of this, the tenth novel in the series, the author has watered down enough plot development to sustain perhaps one or two chapters by a more economical writer.Jordan claims that he has known how the series will end from the very first instalment.I wish he'd let us in on the secret before he takes it to his grave.
