I just finished TOM, found it very readable, and like many, i was surprised to find myself actually enjoying the Perrin sections. I also liked the Moiraine rescue section, but would have really enjoyed seeing more of her afterwards.
The main gripe I had with the book was it did little - nothing - to releve my hunger to see more of Mat and Tuon together, some of the most enjoyable sections of the prior books for me.
So, while TOM did resolve some important threads, it left the Seanchan issue dangling overhead like another mass of dark clouds.
Can't wait to see how it all ends! Bring on AMoL!
