Title: 6th in a series?! I hope the books get more interesting!
Review: I started reading "the Wheel of Time" books a long time ago; I think about 8 years ago. I stopped reading after the seventh, and recently started up again as I saw the release of the 9th book. I've read through all of them again, and now I see why I stopped.This book is almost, considering the last book and the constant references to the ancient prophecies of the Dragon, almost completely pointless. It has no purpose, nothing happens, nothing is really resolved. I can see Jordan sweating, trying to squeeze out another book in this already bloated series for the money.The last conflict in the story is pretty cool, but it takes about 400 pages of prolix, incredibly irritating "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" lolly-gagging to get there.If you want a better series, read Martin's Song of Ice and Fire. Characters actually die! Things ACTUALLY HAPPEN! Best yet, he's promised us that the series is only going to be 6 books long, max.
Is the review positive or negative?
