Winters Heart by 'Robert Jordan'

Will there ever be an end?
What did Rand really Accomplish in the cleansing?
Is Logains' claim to fame the defeat of Taim?
I am sure the 'Return' is coming soon.
Speaking of cleansing; Are 'The Ways' now free. I doubt it.
What in the hell were the Forsaken doing in
those woods, not a lot apparently.
One problem that I have always had with the
series;After Ba'alzamon, no one has ever truly threatened Rand.
We all knew he would escape from the usless
attempts of capture by the red ajah.
Padain Fain (Mordieth) has only been a lost
subplot.
The Whitecoaks must have been totally destroyed in Amadica.
Egwene is eternally stuck in the snow.
Faile is probably a 1/2 mile east, but no
one can find the Aiel in the snow.
Perrin obviously can't.
Forget about the wolves.
Aren't there black ajah out there somewhere?
There is one, but the last I heard she was
stuck in the annals of the 'White Tower'.
Do not even make me go into Elaidas' mess.


I could go on for hours, but why waste the
time. I never did bring up:Mat,Min,Aviendha,
Nynaeve,Elayne or a countless host of others.


Epics fill me with a lifetime of memories,
but there eventually must be some closure.
I started reading this series in high school.
I have been out for a long time.

And Moridin?

Rok.

Rok! In the future could you tell everyone when you're about to give away most of the storyline!

I have not purchased or read books 8 or 9 in the series. Crown of Swords was boring and stale and I figured after three consecutive duds that Jordan was milking the series. A friend lent me Path of Daggers in paperback. I got to approximately page 13 and stopped after reading one of the worse paragraphs to ever be written in a published book. It seemed to be nothing more than words thrown together to make the book that much longer. It was a paragraph that one of my high school teachers would have graded an entire paper with an F because of it. Not only have the regular books in the series gone down the tubes, the World of the Wheel of Time book (I think that was the title) was a ripoff. It's obvious that it could have been better if Jordan really cared.

No more of my money goes to Jordan. He can write this series till book 20 and hit the bestseller list each time, but it won't be from my money.
