Summary: Don't listen to reviews read it for yourself
Review: To start out, DON'T LISTEN TO ANY NEGATIVE REVIEWS ON THIS BOOK! Just read it for yourself. To be blunt this ain't the best book in the series but I write a lot and it is not easy to keep coming up with great ideas that we have seen in the past book. Jordan still is writing good books none the less. A lot of people say that nothing important happens in this book. IT ISN'T TRUE! If I didn't read this book I would open up Path of Daggers and be like WHAT? Not to much stuff happens (I could only name 3 off the top of my head) but you should really read this book. It isn't bad it is good. Read it for yourself. For the future Jordan should bring the Asha'man and Aes Sedai closer together.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a truly great book
Review: I have loved Robert Jordan's books since the beginning, and as much as people complained that this one lagged on forever I thought it was great. Mat is my favorite character and Mat was in this book a lot which may be one of the reasons I liked it so much. And for those who don't think enough get's done, make an inventory of what happens. I don't want to give anything major away but if your a Nynaeve fan she does finally lose her block. Thank God. I think this book may be the best in the series only surpassed by the Fires of Heaven (which had a lot of Mat also).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book in the series so far.
Review: This has got to be the best book in the series so far. Although the pace is slower than the others it explores the many plots in detail. The series seems to be getting better as each book comes out (except for the fourth book which was a bit of a dissappointment) and I can't wait for the next book to come out. Robert Jordan has wriiten a fantasy series which I consider to be better than The Lord Of The Rings or any other fantasy series I have read so far. I recommend these books to anyone who likes fantasy.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A good book?
Review: The first six were excellent. This volume is a MAJOR disappointment. The next one looks to be the same.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It was a follow up on the other six books a little boring
Review: I have to agree this wasn't by far his best but it read well. also he reapts himself and it doesn't seem like he knows where he's going with the series

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Seemingly endless repitition of known detail
Review: I loved the first three installments of this series. However, as I plod through book seven, I have grown tired of the endless description of the clothing worn by the characters. The game of thrones intrigues me and I anticipate the coming of Tarmon Gai'Don, but, Mr. Jordan seems forget to focus on advancing the plotlines of his work to review regional fashions. I always eagerly anticipate the next installment of WoT, but this timeI have been let down by a lack of focus on plot development. It seems nothing is ever resolved, only prolonged.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good, like the others, but stalling the story.
Review: I did like it, like i enjoyed the others, but robert jordan is taking too long to get to the point, a whole book just for each scenario, for each character. it needs to move faster and not tip toe around the events until the end of the book. looking forward to the nedt one which is out, but im waiting for the paperback, incase its more of the usual waiting. i do like the series though.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Slow, but lived up to the standards of Robert Jordan
Review: This book isn't like Jordan's other books in the series. Its pace is somewhat slower, if you notice it spans 4 days. Overall a good book

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great book could hardly put it down
Review: I love the book the only thing that I hate is the wait for the next one in the series. When reading this series of books it is very anoying to have to wait so long for the next one to come out. I know that he is doing the best he can but the wait is still a pain. I also enjoy the way he goes into detail on the characters of this series though. I am also curious to know how many more volumes there are going to be before this series is ended. I know that he is a talented writer and I am looking forward to the series.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: sub-par
Review: This book, even though a continuation of the greatest written series ever, is far below what I have come to expect from this series. The ending seemed really forced which disappointed me. Robert Jordan needs to stop wasting time and get on with the series, there is so much more for our beloved characters to do than simply sit around which is what A Crow of Swords was full of. A helpful tip to the great one (Robert Jordan): we're ready for what comes next just get it ON!!! And from the reviews I just read of Path it doesn't sound like it is going to happen any time soon.
