Negative Positive
Title: The Last Battle is approaching rapidly- NOT!
Review: The story rolls ponderously along, gathering characters like fractures. While I like intricacy, and this series has it, the details are slow in coming- especially as this is yet another 1,000 page book (here editor, editor: come out come out wherever you are!). You often can skip whole pages and not loose the story thread. Character interactions reinforce my conviction that Jordan's philosophy is: trust no one, have no friends, and those you do you cannot confide in, and if you love someone, torment them mercilessly. The book jacket says he's married, but lists no kids... no wonder!
