Summary: Enough Filler All Ready
Review: The good news is that Crossroads of Twilight is better than the last two books of this series. The bad news is this book is still nowhere close to the first six books of this series. The chapters with Elayne in the middle of the book did absolutely nothing for me and after the 3-4 chapters of her in the middle of the book, we never saw her again. Perrin continued the chase to free his wife from the Shaido. How long is this going to last? Matt traded barbs with the Daughter of the Nine Moons and then went shopping with her. Egwene led the rebel Aes Sedai and their army to Tar Valon but did absolutely nothing once they got there. Rand was hardly in this book. Isn't he supposed to be the main character? I guess this sounds like a one star review but I do have to admit, Jordan can make filler interesting. He goes into so much detail about this fantasy world, it's hard not to read it and lose track of time(except for the Elayne chapters). The opening at Cairhien interested me and the Alviarin, Mesana & Elaida chapter was interesting. Mat is usually fun to read about even though he was involved in no action in this book. I also liked Perrin a little more after this book. I agree with one of the reviewers that Book 11 should really pick up. I hope.

Summary: 672 pages of nothing
Review: I had eagerly awaited this book, like many others. Although I thought Path of Daggers was a dissappointment, I was encouraged by the exciting developments in Winter's Heart. This novel, while perhaps more well-written than PoD, is much more inconsequential. The events that happen in this book would be taken care of in the prologue in any other series. Even more maddening is the complete lack of action. Rand channels once in the entire story, and then only to weave a ward against eavesdropping! The exciting climax at the end of the novel, a staple in this series, is completely absent. If the next book is not the last, I'm going to be upset.That said, these were the best 672 pages of nothing I've ever read. As angry as it can make me, I still enjoyed it, and will most assuredly buy the next book. I just wish that Robert Jordan didn't know that so well.

Summary: aren't we all
Review: it's the 10th and complains been pouring since number 4. i bet, though, that readers who appreciate the series far outnumber those "intellectuals" who give their 'literary insight' of what the book should/ought to be. personnaly i pick the book to have a good time for myself, relax and enjoy the read. i've always wondered how other people can sit through a soap opera with its dragging plot. but it doesn't take an 'intellect' to figure that these people do find something entertaining clinging to see what happens next in their chosen series. and i guess that's the key, entertainment. i don't like soaps, but then i don't watch it and i leave those who do be. so people, if you don't like what's going on in the WOT, then just drop it and pick one of Kafka, Tagore and the likes instead.
as for the rest of us 'fans', well ... the _h__l_ with them intellects.

Summary: A series too long.
Review: I'm saying nothing bad about the length of the books or the series. It's just so long winded. It like listening to an old man talking about the old days. You know their might be something good in their but it's full of so much gunk that it's hard to get anything out of it. I've read the whole series so far and I can only remember the 1st book. Adding new storylines and charecters is all fine, but he doesn't finish up the arcs. Theres so much going on that it's easy to get lost and confuse people together. Hopefully this book can regain the charm the series had at first. Maybe because back then it focused on Rand and didn't jump from character to character. I'm hopeing the series ends soon, I'm almost reading now just because I've invested so much time into it already.

Summary: No Battles, No Excitement, No Suspense
Review: When I first started reading this series I enjoyed the first books because of the colorful characters, the fighting that went on, and way the characters worked through problems. This book added very little to the plot, very little action, (1 person lost a hand and one was killed), and was in general boring. You could skip this book entirely and not miss a thing from the series.

Summary: Totally Unecessary
Review: Waste of time. There is not character development and not plot development. There is no reason for this book. Terrible.

Summary: If You Read Book Nine, You're still Up-to-Date
Review: The pace of the plot has slowed down over the last three books in the series, but up until now at least SOMETHING was resolved in each book. Jordan is not nearly an author of the quality required to hold one's interest through such tedious plot development. After over 6000 pages in the previous books, there's no need for developing the characters. There's a cheesy "to-be-continued" ending. However, I was so bored two-thirds of the way through that I'd skipped ahead to the end and cheated myself of the one unexpected turn in the entire book. If you've already read the first nine books, nothing anybody says will keep you from reading this one. Heck, I read it all too. Save yourself some money though, wait for the paperback edition or buy it used. Save yourself some time and wait for book 11 (or Book 12 at this rate).

Summary: The worst Wheel of Time book so far
Review: This book is an exception to the great stories that have appeared in previous WOT books. It's all politics, walking, talking, running, and everybody is pretty much in the same condition as at the end of book 9. The "climax" isn't a climax at all, we are left hanging! After so many books with significant endings, this one is leaves you thinking, "Where's the next chapter, or two?"
If you love the WOT series you will not enjoy this book very much. At this point it seems RJ is dragging this thing out for all it's worth instead of giving us any substance. In tempo, it's similar to book 9, without the last two chapters.
Wait two years and see if the series is worth keeping up with is my opinion.

Summary: Not very good
Review: I have not even finished reading this book, and I am not sure that I will unless I am extremely bored. This installment is slow, hard to get into, and just plain boring. In my opinion, nothing of great importance has happened for several books now in the Wheel of Time saga. I feel like the author is writing book after book simply to sell more books, rather than to add to the development of the story. Come on, if Tolkien can do it in three, why are authors such as Jordan taking 10+ books to develop an inferior story.

Summary: Why won't anything happen
Review: I am truly getting very discouraged by this whole series. I spent half the year rereading this series in the hopes that something will finally happen. And nothing did! The synopsis on the cover sheet does a better job of telling what happens without having to read through 680 pages of fluff! I think Mr. Jordan needs to get back to the early books where he wasn't afraid to kill a few people. He keeps introducing characters but none of them ever go away and each successive books has to tell what happened with these other characters. I refuse to read the rest of the series until I know for sure the series is over
