A Review (spoilers kind of!!!!!!!!!!) Matt_at_Heart Send a noteboard - 27/10/2010 02:05:12 AM
Ok for those wanting a quick review from a impartial view point. I will give my two sense. For those wanting major spoilers you can send me a message, my grammar and spelling is not good so please forgive!

First off I thought the book was good, but it was not in my top five. I think we need to separate the books RJ wrote and these last three books. This book is BS book I did not see RJ at all, but that is just my opinion. That being said BS does a good job, but I am not a fan off his writing style.

There is plenty of action, but it all seems a little rushed, I think BS is trying to make everyone happy and tie up loose ends, I don't think RJ would have done that. Like some of the last book things just seem to happen to happen and I think we are going to have to live with it/

This book has a lot of Perin and more Egwene then I thought. (starting to hate her) I actually like Elayne in this book and that is saying a lot. BS still has not found his voice with Matt and that makes me sad.

As for Rand, I like his scenes, but I am little confused as to how all this change in him took place. I know the ending of last book, but that does not explain why is like he is now. (If anyone cares to explain to me this please do) This is the issue that I have with this book as stated above. Things just happen and sometimes there is little explanation. I do tend to read to fast and I miss a lot of stuff, but I dont think I am wrong here.

Overall I give it a 7, these are just my opinions and I know that people are going to see it differently then I, but I just thought I would share my thoughts
