Title: PLEASE... can we move the plot forward??
Review: I waited a long time for this book to finally be published. The series has so much potential - despite its seemingly unnecessary complexity and volume of characters. This book does nothing to move the plot forward, presents no resolution to any of the plot twists, and ultimately adds nothing to the series. The character development is of no value, there are numerous editor slips (grammer, people, grammer), and there is no real story progress. Overall, one could omit this book from the series and lose nothing about the plot development, character positions (geographically or ideologically), and ultimately would have saved themselves many hours of useless reading. Mr. Jordan, please move the plot forward, get back to basics, and pre-read the book before publishing in the future. Remember the rule, if it does not contribute or move the story forward, delete it. As Stephen King said, Final Copy = Draft - 10%.
