Summary: A shame
Review: As a french reader I have read Robert Jordan's books for many years, and was expecting eagerly Crossroads of Twilight...well, I was, and I am, very, very disappointed. Near 700 pages to tell nothing ?! If it is not a shame, it is without doubt a record.

Summary: Loyal fan, hoping against hope...
Review: I too have been reading this series since the beginning. After finishing this book, I may not bother anymore. I definitely won't set aside the time to read the book before checking out the review - like so many have very limited time for pleasure reading, and this book was not a pleasure. Mat and Tuon were interesting, but do you think you kidnap the heir to the Seanchan throne and she just goes along with it? Someing just doesn't jive. Perrin and Fayle and Berelain - I don't even care anymore. I was frustrated when I was halfway through the book and realized that most of the plot entry points were BEFORE Rand cleansed the saidin. Come on, at least get FURTHER than the last book! No new characters until you figure out what the ones you have are up to! I would not recommend this book to anyone but the most hardcore Jordan fan, and it seems there are fewer and fewer of us. I will not buy the next one.

Summary: Blah Blah Blah boring...
Review: Blah Blah, we had some tea. We took a hot bath. Ok, the first 1-6 (or 7) books were fine, but this like 8 and 9 (at least some of it) are PLODDING. I mean really, do we need the detail of them taking a hot bath and having tea with honey in it? Shoot just about the only detail we don't get is them using the latrine or outhouse or whatever. I hate to say it, but this just isn't up to par and I can't believe that his *editors* haven't told him that. While I enjoy the detail that makes his world so real this is way over the top. Message to Robert Jordan: get new editors and pick up the pace. Given the slow pace here, I hope he has the plot written down somewhere so his great-grandchild can finally finish it at book 208.

Summary: Very Disappointing
Review: I've been a huge fan of this series and was eagerly anticipating the release of this book-I actually even went to a book signing for it. I'm very disappointed since nothing really happens to advance the story. It sort-of felt like homework to finish it because it's boring and slow paced. Many of the main characters appear only peripherally and I hated the way the book ended. I hope that the next book in this series is better. I won't lie and say that I'll never read another Wheel of Time book again, but it certainly won't be with the same enthusiasm as before.

Summary: Slow Mover
Review: This book moved very slow, and it had the least action of any book in the series. If you are a fan of the female characters, and you like your them to sit around and talk, you will love this book. The portions about Mat are the only saving grace in my opinion, and he is so mellow he doesn't even gamble! Even with the slow pace I think that this book is still twice as good as everything else on the market. I have invested years into reading this series(since my junior year in high school, and I'm almost 30!), and I hope that it does eventually get finished. My greatest fear(when it comes to reading) is that this story will never be completed. I recommend this series to anyone who enjoys a good story, but whatever you do, don't let the slow pace of this book stop you from reading the rest of this series(as if it's possible to read this as a stand alone book!)

Summary: Where is Chapter 1?
Review: This is the worst of all the Wheel of Time books I have ever read and doesn't deserve to be published. Is Jordan or the Publisher after our money now, as the book was full of nothing, no story, no content, nothing, even the main character held 1 chapter at most to be honest? Jordan cannot be compared to Tolkien, as he was able to condense pages into words, and limit story lines and characters to keep the reader interested.
Well, thats my moan about the book complete.

Summary: Enough is enough
Review: I have been upset that the last few books in this series had about half that content of the first five. THIS book is not even half a book. It is nothing more than a prologue for the next book. After the end of the last book, I was really hoping that the action would pick up. Boy was I wrong! It is one thing to string your readers along to make a few more dollars, but at least give a 680 page book a PLOT!!!! IF I continue with this series, I will be sure to buy the books used. RJ will get no more money from me. He has swindled me for the last time!

Summary: Not upto the Mark.
Review: It was not worth the wait.
The whole book happens within a very short span.
A slow slow book.
I think he took the extra time to write the last 3 chapters.
Thats all that was upto mark

Summary: Nothing Happens
Review: 600+ pages and nothing happens other than to spread a little more confusion on the flames.

Summary: Slow
Review: I remember a time when Jordan's books started out catching you up on what happened last time, threw you a crisis near the middle, and then in resolving that crisis in the end advanced the Big Picture towards the Last Battle. Now, though, Jordan seems to have completely cut the exciting bits and the action as completely as possible. At least his rich writing style isn't failing, but that can't save 700 pages nothing. It's also very annoying that the entire nearly 700 pages is given over only to little more than a week. At this pace, the Last Battle had better not be much more than three weeks away, or this will quickly turn into a 20 book series. After waiting for so long sure that Book 10 would be chock full of action, I'm severely disappointed.
