Exactly my feeling on TGS, but I do think ToM inferior to it (though still good).

The Gathering Storm was the first one since LoC that I literally couldn't stop reading, but I don't put ToM on the same level. Of course, that doesn't mean it's barely worthy of being toilet paper; it's still light years better than TPoD, for example. I'm not sure why it always has to be "Jordan/Sanderson is God/Anti-Christ" with no middle ground.

Disagree strongly on the time line issue - TOM showed what a mistake splitting by 'clusters' was IMO

Splitting it this way was the only realistic choice

It will be better than CoT, sure, but still not good enough to appease most fans

Right, it's good, but could be better (or it could be better, but is still good).

"Reading" TGS &ToM in audio format and just weeks apart made them work better together. *NM*

I agree. Also, chopping up the timelines was the best decision given the circumstances.
