A Sanderson book, not a Jordan book, just as a point of fact Cannoli Send a noteboard - 30/05/2017 11:55:53 PM

Yeah, Perrin redeeming the Whitecloaks was an important part of the overall plot, but good grief did it require and entire freaking book...

Not in RJ's plan, since he didn't move on it until he only had one to go.

Which Part of WoT Plot Did You Dislike the Most? MrFarstrider - 30/05/2017 02:49:26 AM 1564 Views
The internecine warfare in the White Tower should have taken up about one fifth the size it did. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 06:01:47 AM 535 Views
It felt like such little payoff for staying devoted to such a terrible storyline MrFarstrider - 31/05/2017 12:33:43 AM 866 Views
The real annoyance with the WT stuff. Is not knowing if it never meant much, or just died with RJ. Dunstan - 31/05/2017 06:36:57 PM 898 Views
Almost everything to do with the Seanchan. *NM* Mix - 30/05/2017 07:51:53 AM 1045 Views
Perrin, Masema, etc nossy - 30/05/2017 01:09:20 PM 815 Views
Pretty much all the female story lines. random thoughts - 30/05/2017 01:38:39 PM 949 Views
Demandred not being Taim. Tom - 30/05/2017 02:53:40 PM 890 Views
Naw, dude, he was totally in, uh... Shara the while time. Obviously. Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 05:35:15 PM 931 Views
Totally agreed. Tom - 30/05/2017 06:52:00 PM 841 Views
Perrin rescuing Faile HyogaRott - 30/05/2017 04:11:10 PM 967 Views
A Sanderson book, not a Jordan book, just as a point of fact Cannoli - 30/05/2017 11:55:53 PM 1004 Views
The subplot was almost the entirety of Crossroads of Twilight... *NM* HyogaRott - 01/06/2017 01:23:21 PM 553 Views
COT may have been the worst novel ever written..... *NM* Anonymous2000 - 01/06/2017 05:17:27 PM 493 Views
Have you read Vellum by Hal Duncan? It was worse. *NM* Tom - 01/06/2017 09:03:08 PM 512 Views
Ah crap. Seriously? I guess I shouldn't feel bad for having it in my to read pile for so long then. *NM* Chas - 03/06/2017 01:08:02 AM 591 Views
Nah, that "award winning" SciFi novel by sombody Adams that either Tom of Cannoli convinced me to re HyogaRott - 02/06/2017 12:56:53 PM 923 Views
There is no way I recommended a sci-fi book to someone, other than Lem's Solaris. Tom - 03/06/2017 07:25:00 PM 805 Views
Anything that had to do... Jeordam - 30/05/2017 04:45:27 PM 864 Views
Yeah, but Rand being whiny did give us the best scene in the series, IMHO. Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 08:27:54 PM 875 Views
Yeah....too bad it took Jeordam - 31/05/2017 04:27:49 PM 920 Views
Anything involving the political machinations of Cannoli's favorite character damookster - 30/05/2017 06:59:31 PM 893 Views
Most plotlines involving Egwene after book three or so. And yeah, much of Perrin's storyline. Legolas - 30/05/2017 07:15:26 PM 910 Views
So, you mean most of the Aes Sedai stuff? *NM* Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 08:22:05 PM 522 Views
Nah, there was plenty that wasn't about her. Legolas - 30/05/2017 09:06:49 PM 887 Views
I always thought making Egwene was a silly contrived story line random thoughts - 30/05/2017 09:27:01 PM 890 Views
Am I the only person who didn't hate Egwene? nossy - 30/05/2017 11:46:47 PM 863 Views
I didn't Cannoli - 30/05/2017 11:52:05 PM 1164 Views
What is happening? nossy - 31/05/2017 10:43:52 AM 1053 Views
I didn't mind her early on MrFarstrider - 31/05/2017 12:14:19 AM 950 Views
But... Her #1 goal since the very first page she is on is to NOT be "a innkeeper's daughter". Dunstan - 31/05/2017 06:14:18 AM 897 Views
That's true, but she WAS an innkeepers daughter. nossy - 31/05/2017 10:49:04 AM 826 Views
Which simply made her all the more reckless in attempting to NOT be until she wasn't. *NM* Dunstan - 31/05/2017 04:22:46 PM 523 Views
It was the direction he took her. random thoughts - 31/05/2017 03:04:21 AM 718 Views
That's almost true of every character nossy - 31/05/2017 10:52:55 AM 823 Views
That is true random thoughts - 31/05/2017 12:20:47 PM 898 Views
I kind of feel like Seanchan was setting up for the "outrigger" stories. MrFarstrider - 31/05/2017 10:46:53 PM 914 Views
that fact that you are probably right makes it worse random thoughts - 05/06/2017 03:44:23 PM 861 Views
I actively liked her until probably around PATH OF DAGGERS. Then I was just vaguely indifferent. Ghavrel - 31/05/2017 04:15:37 AM 910 Views
I'm always impressed by people who can keep them straight. nossy - 31/05/2017 10:59:09 AM 848 Views
There are resources that can help with that. Cannoli - 31/05/2017 06:16:47 PM 1043 Views
Your geekery knows no bounds. nossy - 31/05/2017 06:37:42 PM 836 Views
I didn't at the start. Bergioyn - 11/06/2017 09:24:38 PM 1056 Views
Luca's circus...I mean "menagerie" Cannoli - 30/05/2017 11:53:54 PM 1028 Views
The return/rescue of Moiraine.....totally pointless in the end Anonymous2000 - 31/05/2017 12:52:27 PM 848 Views
It treated her as somekind of Wheel high priestess... And everone just went with it... Dunstan - 31/05/2017 07:12:40 PM 863 Views
Took forever to think of full on "plot" I'd go so far as to DISLIKE. Then it hit me. "Pink ribbons". Dunstan - 01/06/2017 06:28:13 AM 817 Views
The ludicrous amounts of subplots and minor characters. Bergioyn - 11/06/2017 09:32:32 PM 1106 Views
