Title: No excuse for Robert Jordan
Review: Why is it okay these days for a setup piece to be dull? If anything, a setup piece should hook the reader in, make him want to read to the finish. Falling action belongs at the ending of a work, not in the middle, and falling, falling, falling is all this series is doing now.Yes, it is high time Robert Jordan wrapped it up. His descriptions and language are getting repetitive, as can be expected in a series of this length - not that that excuses it. I feel that his style is very dry and unexciting in the first place; with big ol chunks of straight, in-your-face, clunky, repetitive description, it seems exponentially more sleep-inducing.Not recommended for public consumption, this book. At least I won't want for toilet tissue for awhile.
Is the review positive or negative?
