Summary: Book 10 - first 300 pages are worthless
Review: The first 300 or so pages of the book are worthless: Endless and useless details that barely touch upon the main story lines (yes story lines) after waiting years to pick up where book 9 left off. I am so disappointed that I will most likely not finish the series. As much as I want to know the ending this is just not worth it!!

Summary: Crossroads of Twilight
Review: Nothing new happened in this book. You could easily skip reading it and pick up on book 11 when it comes out without missing a step.

Summary: STINKS
Review: Inane, Boring, The worst book I have ever read. It went absolutley nowhere. Please someone tell me was there any point in writing this? Is Robert Jordan teetering on the edge of sinility? WHAT WAS THAT?

Summary: Too much of nothing
Review: Once again, Robert Jordan proves he can develop characters and subplots for 1000 pages, while not actually accomplishing much of anything in the overall story line. This whole book could have been condensed to a couple of chapters in a larger book in which SOMETHING ACTUALLY HAPPENS to move the plot along.I don't think I will even buy the next book until some other people read it and tell me if anything actually goes on.

Summary: Pointless from cover to cover
Review: Some people have said that this book focuses on developing the characters rather than action, but all Jordan really gives us is trite navel gazing and the endless regurgitation of his limited array of character traits and descriptive phrasings (aparently all Aes Sedai share one collective hive-mind consisting mostly of icy stares and dress-smoothing). Nothing at all happens, you could probably just read the last few pages and get the same effect. I'm probably not going to finish the series after this, I can't blame Jordan for milking the series for a bit of money, but this offering of mostly filler is just plain insulting.

Summary: There's a problem with this novel people are not addressing.
Review: I see a lot of the people who liked this book saying "Guys stop complaining, Robert Jordan's just setting things up!" Yes, Robert Jordan partially has been setting things up for about 4 books. This is true. But these last four books are also suffering from an egregious amount of PADDING, padding that has nothing to do with setting up a plot. For example, when the Aes Sedai meet, it takes them 4... pages just to sit down. Four long boring pages?! Is this necessary? This book is just chock full of useless details that have been repeated ad nauseum since Crown of Swords. If you want to hear about Aes Sedai breast size to the most pedantic minutae, or if Nynaeve yanking her braid ten times in five pages fascinates you, or you want to read about Egwene crossing her arms beneath her breasts, or any number of oft-repeated and useless details, then by all means, read this book.

Summary: Waste of Time
Review: Don't buy this book. Don't even read it. The only thing that happens of note is on the last page. Save the time, and read it in a book store. I think Robert Jordan is one of the best fantasy writers out there, and the Wheel of Time one of the best fantasy series, but this book was just pointless. Of all the threads he is weaving, all of them remain unchanged but one, and that one only slightly. This book is utterly skippable, and I guarantee you won't miss a thing if you never open the cover.

Summary: Disappointing
Review: I feel that I have been taken advantage of on this one. Less happens in the almost 700 pages of this book than in 20 of any other. No science fiction, no important political setup, no suspense, no resolution of any issues. My feeling is that Jordan does not know how to tie up all of the loose ends he has created and is stalling for time. My advice is - don't even get the paperback. Go to your local bookstore and read the last 4 pages. This book is a waste of good reading time and I will be sure to read reviews of the next before buying it.

Summary: This book should be called "Waste of Time"
Review: This book is a waste of time! Nothing happens!!! I wish I could return it! Fantasy Adventure? It's more like an episode of "Days of our lives." Robert Jordan's work has taken a downturn for the worst. His last few books in this series have definitely been sub par. This book lacked any type of battle, action, or a plot. It has no start and no end. With over 600 pages of text you would think Jordan could move the plot along, but he didn't. I think he is adding extra books to milk every last dollar out of this series. He has lost me as a fan!

Summary: Nothing Happens!
Review: I loved this series, but this book just sucked! NOTHING HAPPENS! No issues get resolved, no mysterys are unraveled, no answers are given. Rand is still pretty much crazy, the rebel Aes Sedai are still sitting outside Tar Valon, Faile is still Gai'shain, Perrin still isn't able to do anything about it, Mat is still trying to get away from Ebou Dar, Taim is still in charge of the Asha'man, it's still winter, and the Seanchan are still invading. After 700 pages of discriptions of embroidery, silks, gilded chairs, how cold it is, and every other stupid detail that doesn't matter, we will have to wait another two years before the next book comes out. Will it even add anything to this great story? I hope so. Crossroads of Twilight is a waste of time. Everything that happens in this book is effectively summed-up in the liner notes. Go to a book store read that and wait for the next book and you will have gained as much insight as all 700 pages would give you.
