Title: Is this going to go on forever?
Review: After more than one year of waiting, I started reading this book with the usual expectation I reserve for the "eye of the world series". Unfortunately it seems that Robert Jordan thinks he can make us go to the bookstore and buy the continuation of the continuation forever. He has made the series a money machine, and is not willing to advance to a conclusion. In Crossroads of twilight nothing happens. There is already so many characters and parallel plots that it takes the first 5/6pages to review them, and then he uses the following 1/6 to introduce more alternative plots. After ten books, I would feel comfortable if we advanced towards a conclusion, and concentrated on the main plot. Is this going to go on forever?The only positive thing I can say about the book is that the characters and Jordan's writing style have become so familiar that the book is as easy to read as a comic.
Is the review positive or negative?
