Summary: El Dorado
Review: Jordan is a genius. 15 years ago he enthralled us all in with a strong opening to the only decent fantasty since Tolkien. Since then he has led us on the search for El Dorado, with us all hoping to find the city of gold, the fantasy story of epic proportions, as he wraps up the series. There were the early ones to discover the truth, but for many more of us it took until now to truly understand. Jordan has lost his way, and now the laborious journey of his latest books is far more costly than any reward to be found at the series end.

Summary: Jordan still rules the fantasy realm
Review: Although a surprise, New Spring is a fabulous addition to the Wheel of Time series. I couldn't put it down. Jordan is the very best storyteller in this genre today. I can't wait for the next book. When he decides to move on in the series, I hope he brings Moiraine and Lanfear back, possibly the two best characters in the series.
If he writes another prequel, I hope it's as good as the first one.

Summary: I think the Wheel broke . . .
Review: I really have nothing to say. I think the Wheel of Time must be missing some spokes, because we're back to the beginning with no end in sight. This book is useless. Don't even bother with it. Just like last few books the actual series, it is not worth your money.

I simply do not understand that after Jordan spits out the most abomidable piece of crap I have ever read (Book 10), he attempts to redeem himself with a PREQUEL of all things. No, Jordan is beyond redemption. He simply needs to put this damn series, which started out with so much promise, out of its misey, not drag it out in the opposite direction as well. All this BS is pointless! I don't care! End it, please, and then go off and write a trilogy of pointless prequels. Even The Neverending Story has an ending . . . and the movie has a cool theme song . . .

I shall write an end to WOT right now: And then a great sinister spacecraft appeared over Randland, surrounded by the ambient Star Wars Imperial theme, and nuked the place into oblivion. THE END! There, Robert, I ended the series for you, or at least for me. I am finished! With WOT and its prequels too! Good riddance.
