Sounds good but so did the last couple of WoT books which had contents which didn't quite match or live up to the blurb on the back cover.

It does sound cool!

(I was more astonished at that site--those books have some very ... um ... dedicated fans!)

the only thing that sounds is exciting is that they DID

SPOILER

..succeed in cleansing the taint.

Sigh... we'll see...

Same old, same old. Seems like a really cool way to say, "well, nothing's going to be resolved in this book either."
Yeah, I'll still buy it though, I'm such a hypocrite- I love Jordan despite the fact I now have no clue what's going on in his books.

I agree with Blizzaurel: Basically, none of the plotlines will be resolved. Egwene's been trying to figure out how to reunite the White Tower since Book 6 (and now we're told that it must be done "quickly?"); Perrin's virtually always been trying to figure out how to reconcile his own desires with his loyalty to Rand; Mat's been running away for practically the entire series; Jordan's been trying to find a reason to have Elayne in the plot since 1990; and Rand himself has been trying to sort out friends from foes since the first chapter of Book 1. These are the same recycled plot lines from six or seven years ago. What's the excitement about this time around? I'll buy the book in November, but I'm not hoping for the Grand Climax (or even a Mini Subplot Climax).

Who thinks the series will end with a disclaimer from Jordan saying that he's fulfilled his contractual obligations and that the story is ending...... now.
