Rating: Summary: Getting Predictable Review: The first few books were excellent (4 or more stars). Since then, the series has become irritating. Only a few science fiction stories have become a legend, Lord of Rings, Star Wars and Blade Runner just to name a few of the best. Robert Jordan should save himself and end the series with no more than two more books. It's been so long since I read book eight I forget about the series until I came accross this Web site. I'm not sure I want to read the next book. I'll have to wait and see how nice the cover looks.
Rating: Summary: It's a good book. Review: You people suck! You keep writing how bad this book is when you can't do any better. I thought the fact that you are simpletons who can barely read never mind crit a book would stop you from trying to deprive other people of this great book. So mind your own business and if you don't like his books don't buy future copies.
Rating: Summary: Robert Jordan, I excpected better from you!! Review: This book was a true disapointment to me. The earlier books in the series were excellent, this is terrible! There is sucha contrast between the other books and this one! I mean, you could condense everything that happened in this Path of Daggers and put it in A Crown of Swords and it would only be 20 extra pages!
Rating: Summary: GOOD BUT STARTING TO SLUMP Review: I'm hooked on The Wheel Of Time series and still enjoy it very much. But when will it end and when is the next book being released?
Rating: Summary: This is the story that never ends, it just goes on and on my Review: FRIENDS. I have been reading this series since 1990. The excitement begins to pale, the description becomes repetitive, the characters whine a lot more than they did when they first left Emond's Field. Oh, yes, my favorite part...Why was it that after the prelude did we never hear from the border monarchs again? That was just unneccessary. I always thougth that it would be great to have a series go on and on and never end...and for the most part I still feel this way, but if dear Mr. Jordan doesn't pick up the pace he's going to lose a loyal reader. I didn't even buy PoD, I borrowed it from the Library. Slogging through that book, I knew how Rand and co. felt slogging through rain soaked Illian. No one should pay money to experience that. I'll borrow book nine from the Library, give dear Mr. Jordan one last chance, but if its not up to par...it's over.
Rating: Summary: Beyond words Review: Grea
Rating: Summary: Getting frustrated, still hooked. Review: Yes, this book does not live up to Jordans earlier books,(like 1 - 5) but then again this is no ordinary series. I was realy bored with the bogged down female on female interplay. And I am so sick of the Perrin's I AM NOT A LORD! crap I could die. Thankfully, that may be over. And what is wrong with with sleeping with three women Rand? Like he is going to live long enough to have to deal with it? Please Robert Jordan, enough with the byplay, there is so much left unanswered, you could write a dozen more book still. Let the character building lag. I waited almost two years for very little reward.
Rating: Summary: Jees, Lets get on with it. Review: First of all I will say that the series is fantastic and I will keep reading them to the end. However, we do seem to be dragging a little bit. I don't mean to be critical of your work but it is hard not to say the women and the men to a lesser extent need to quit bickering and whining. The books are all still good and for all the people that say you are dragging it out for the money. Uggg! So what, drag it out as long as you like. Jes, that is the way to make money then do it. And for all the people that say you can't juggle the char's get a life. What right do we have to be critics anyway. If you are a published author then you have the right. Otherwise shut the heck up and let Mr. Jordan do as he pleases. Yes, we all want the books to come to closure soon but if thery don't so what just keep reading until they do. I for one think that if you want to make a lot of money on the books then that is your business not mine.
Rating: Summary: Greed over Greatness - the tragic end of Robert Jordan Review: This series has hit rock bottom and is beyond salvage. I don't know how anyone could possibly give it more than 2 stars (2 is generous and probably only from Jordan's relatives). The first four in the series were great. I became hooked. It has gone down hill rapidly since. Five and six were boring and after Crown Of Swords (another awfull Jordan novel), I did not think things could get worse. POD proved me wrong again. I'm kicking the habit. So long Robert Jordan. You were within grasp of greatness. I hope you enjoy all the wealth accumulated from this series because respect and greatnes is no longer possible.
Rating: Summary: Too many books! Review: There's gonna be at least nine books in what was supposed to be a seven book series! My advice is to read every other book. Jordan spends at least 30% of his book stating what happened in his previous book. I got the books from my library and they only had the odds. Sometime later, I filled in the gaps. I wanted to see if I had missed anyhting. Nothing at all! For those who think it may have been the way I read the books, you're wrong. I did the same with Goodkind's books and I love them. Too much wasted time reading 3000+ pages. Skip a few of the books. It's more exciting and a lot better.
