Summary: Why are you reading this???
Review: I agree wholeheartedly with the sharp editorial review by Paul Hughes as well as the passionate comments by MissRedHead (who sounds eerily like Failte... : ) I'm tired of waiting for each and every new book, only to find that never ending resolution to any of the plots!! For Chrissake, every forsaken is alive or reincarnated!! Now I find myself waiting STILL for the paperback which was due over a year ago for this damn book!! I've bought the last 3 in hard covers (what a waste of money!)And the comment by "a reader from Utah" that "Anyone who says that Jordon is getting slow or boring is probably easily distracted."???!!! After following 8 books!! you got to be kidding!! Are you living in a cabin?? Have you not heard of return on investment??? I'm shilling out beaucoup bucks for what??? ALLULIA to the reader from USA!!! I really can't say that I remember much of the previous books of this godforsaken series...but like a bad coke habit, I'm addicted. I think I'm gonna kick this habit now and call it quits until I see some concrete resolutions to these plots in his next book (I'm not holding my breath). Maybe then, I'll consider resuming. Good luck to all you hopeless ones. I think Bob Jordan's gonna die of old age before finishing this series... Go back and reread Tolkien. It's not too late...LOL.

Summary: Not the best, but still a good read.
Review: Although this has been the best series I have ever read (and I think I have read each book at least 4 times) I think it's starting to slow down a bit. I would love to say each one gets better, but the first book (which I would rate about 6 stars) is still the best. I liked Winter's Heart very much though.

Summary: The Neverending Story
Review: For anyone thinking of jumping in to the Jordan series, I'd recommend waiting until it finally ends before buying any of the books. I coughed up the cash for the first five, but this series has really died out in the last three books. Series as a whole: excellent take on the epic fantasy concept, but the basic limitations of the genre are truly taking their toll on this reader's interest. Nothing happened in this book. At all. I haven't bought the last three books, I just checked them out from the library. I wouldn't recommend the investment of time, much less cash on this book. I'll probably check the next one out of the library when it comes out, but if Jordan continues his trend of churning out mass quantities of pointless text, I might not make it all of the way through.

Summary: Not Quite Satisfied, But Still Great
Review: As with everyone else, I think WoT needs to end. As with everyone else I am going to buy every single book till it does end. Winter's Heart is a great read for one reason alone: MAT CAUTHON IS BACK! Book paces pretty well and the finish is suspensful with the changing perspectives.

Summary: the last 30 pages or so
Review: I give this book four stars mainly b/c of the ending. In the final 30 pages the action picks up and I was riveted. The rest of the book followed the course set by the last 2 or 3 in the series, IE getting so bogged down in the hundreds (it feels like) of minor characters and subplots that the book becomes difficult to read. This series would be much better if Jordan used about 300 less pages a book, but I still think that it is well conceived and contrary to the opinions of the past two reviewers, well worth reading.

Summary: At Last!
Review: I love the serries and I really dont like people saying its too long the story is un matched except by goodkind's SoT book 7 and 8 are slow but 9 brings back the joy of them you have to keep a open mind and not think geeze 500 more pages to go otherwise you dont deserve to read the books and see the light!. Over all I think the serries will go to at lest 12 or more books but i dont think it can be shorted other wise it will be too rushed and it would ruin the story

Summary: great, excellent
Review: one thing i've always had against fantasy stories, including this series is that they never seem to give the enemies more than a two dimensional characterization. this one attempts it rather well with the forsaken and some of the darkfriends, but trollocs are just fodder for rand's lightning strikes.
but my own pet pieves aside, this story is rich and complex. this world that robert jordan has created is imaginative and innovative. it may seem like he is using some stereotypes from our own cultures throughout our world, but he's mixed it up well enough to be considered his own creation. the story will engross you, as it should and you will be caught up in the characters' drive for survival. enjoy it, and all nine books so far. this one gave me hope for his future books. now that rand did what he did, the tide will turn against the dark ones. great idea, robert.

Summary: Winter's Heart by Robert Jordan
Review: I felt this book was not as effectively thrilling and adventurous as the first five,but I did think it was entertaining. Some of the reviews I read told the author to," End it already! Nine books are to many!" I think the series has gone on for a long time but so far every book has been enjoyable.
To me, this book aroused as many questions as it answered,but was still a compelling read. I wish that they had told more about Faile's capture and Perrin's hunt after her. Jordan only gave them a few chapters and then moved on to Rand, Egwene and the rebel Aes sedai, and Mat and the Seanchan. And to all of you who think men are sumpreme leaders of the world, I'd bet anything Aviendha could beat the ... out of Rand one-on-one.

Summary: Ages Come and Go . . .
Review: The latest installment in the Wheel of Time books continued the groggy slog of the previous couple. Robert Jordan's ability to create a world is unsurpassed. So to it appears is his inability with resolution. Without having read the previous volumes one is lost, and may be lost even with them due to the hundreds of characters, dozens of plot twists, various lands, customs, sects, military units, intrigues, and romantic couplings. At the end of Winter's Heart there IS one thing resolved, but given all the other things that pop up it's hard to see how RJ is going to finish this series and/or the major plot elements in less than another 5-6 books. At the current rate that's another 10 years or so. My advice: Wait until the series is complete (if ever, remember he wants to write until they nail shut his coffin) and read the books continuously end-to-end. This is the only way the reader has any chance to keep any semblance of understanding what's going on. I don't even think the author can.

Summary: Another Winner!!
Review: I am again astounded by the ability of Jordon to continue to keep me wanting more. This book was definitely a appetite wetter for the next book. Jordon's ending leaves you wanting the sequel now! Anyone who says that Jordon is getting slow or boring is probably easily distracted.
