Summary: Crossroads of Twilight (the wheel of time book 10)
Review: Robert Jordan is an excelent writer and I enjoy reading his work. Crossroads of Twilight takes us through another spin of the wheel and brings all the threads closer together.

I also wish to read the end of the series, but I don't think trashing the books are necessary. I just wish they would come out quicker.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: unfortunate
Review: Mr. Jordan your story has become unfortunate. The Crossroads of Twilight was the worst book that I've ever read and I regret beginning what was once a fascinating story. I will not slog through anymore of your tedious and infinitely repetitive depictions of icy Aes Sedai serenity, women wearing scandalous breeches, plunging necklines, and ridiculous bickering.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What a Ripoff
Review: The CoT is a ripoff. As I read it, I wondered when's it going to get good, when's something going to happen? Nothing happened. Come on, kill off these plot lines and lots of these misc characters! Tie things up, already! This book is such a filler and non-story. I like the first six books, but this one was boring, plodding, trivial (did I mention boring?), and who the heck cares anymore about this guy or that gal? MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN, OR FORGET ME AS A FAN!

Summary: Crossroads of Twilight
Review: Everything i want to say about this book has been put in much better words by my fellow reviewers(excluding Rob Jordan's friends and family).But i have a word of caution for those who are still willing to see the series to the end.Jordan is planning to release a prequel novel between successive installments of WOT series.With two more books to come and what with the same number of prequels in the offing, the original series will take at least 6 more years to end.All we need now is the prequels to become bestsellers and then after decade (or two)we will hear Robert Jordan saying "After Prequel19, there will be two more prequels, knock wood, God willing and the creek don't rise."

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Awful beyond words
Review: Jordan's continued slide into the abyss of worthlessness continues unabated. While most of his books contain hundreds of pages of filler, this one has nothing else. No plot advancement occurs at all. A complete waste of time and money.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Get a clue
Review: 1833 reviews and this enormous doorstop has only garnered 1.5 stars... Jordan says, "I don't read the reviews because they don't matter to me... blah blah blah..." If anyone close to him finds this, tell him to stop hiding. The people have spoken.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Awsome series...............what happened?
Review: I first began reading the Wheel of Time series after it came highly recommended by a friend of mine. To tell the truth I loved every book in the series (1-9) but then came book ten. For others who have read the rest of the series I can see your dissapointed also. No main conflict was ever resolved but instead dragged out. The "Rand chapters" of this series were my favorite, the ones where all the action and story devolpment took place. This novel had only 2 chapters devoted to Rand and over half the book to meaningless Aes Sedia parts. I was highly disappointed in this book. How can Robert Jordan bring himself to write this?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Do not read this book!! Read why below.
Review: I personaly thought books 4,5, and 6 of this series were the worst. This one takes the cake. Out of 800+ pages of writing (paperback), there is probably, and I'm being generous, 100 pages of new stuff. Out of the new stuff there is more excitement watching a snail crawl. Just skip this book in the series and find someone who was silly enough to finish this one they can describe everything that happened with in 5 minutes and prqay to the Dark One that the next book is better. If you don't believe me, go ahead and read it. I hope you enjoy an 800+ page review of what has happened in the last 9 books.
To Mr. Robert Jordan,
Did you read this after you wrote it? I would've burned it and started over again. Did your imagination have a lapse? There is almost nothing new happening in this book. Just let it go and finish the series. Read Mrin Codex by David and Leigh Eddings and learn how to write a a fantasy novel, or give him a ring I'm sure he would share my ideals.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: All that's missing is the religion.
Review: Jordan has a sweet scam going. In addition to pumping out books to a series that will never EVER end, he is also knocking out prologues and prequels. If you do a search on amazon.com for Jordan stuff, you will unearth beauties such as 'Glimmers: The prologue to Crossroads of Twilight' (for a mere $3.50) or 'New Spring: A Wheel of Time Prequel Novel.' Bwahaha! Prior to the release of each book now he actually puts out a separate 'prologue' that people still pay for. And prequels! To a series that hasn't even ended yet! Pretty soon you'll have to pay $2.00 for the privilege of even reviewing one of his books here.

Now, of course, all that is missing is the pseudo-religion. Jordan clearly needs to L. Ron Hubbard-ize himself. Once you get tax-exempt status for your bizarre imagin-o-world, the loot really starts rolling in. We can plunk Jordan in an oversized inner tube, let him drift around the Atlantic for a few years, and eventually he'll wash ashore covered in seaweed and extolling the virtues of the Church of Rand, as told by the Chronicles of Perrin the Apostle. All you have to do is donate all your worldly belongings and you'll have the privilege of toiling for grace in his fertile lima bean fields. Don't drink the Kool-Aid, though.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Big Improvement
Review: After Winter's Heart, I was skeptical of reading another WoT book, but Robert Jordan has redeemed himself. Crossroads of Twilight continues Jordan's epic WoT series and again has captured my interest.
