Title: Jordan's Fashion Show
Review: Having been frustrated with Robert Jordan's previous books in this series that are ploddingly paced, I find reading Crossroads of Twilight like reviewing hundreds of articles on local fashion shows. Jordan seems to think that characters are made vivid by telling us exactly what they are wearing. After 200+ pages of watching character after character parade across Jordan's stage with him announcing in the same monotone what they're wearing, I give up. He has apparently decided that it is better to milk his audience for every penny he can than to produce a great, enduring fantasy classic (which he was well on the way to with the first 3 books).This book finally quenches my thirst for the Wheel of Time, not with satisfaction, but with disillusionment. So long, Robert.
