SPOILERS BELOW>>>>>>>>>>>>
Well, I spent a year waiting for more Rober Jordan and i finally got it (finished reading it in 3 days at that). And all i can say afterwards is WTF??? Granted, i love the characters, always have, but i didn't see the point of this book. In all the others there was always something big happening at the end of it that resolves a problem set up earlier and at the end of this one we got Egwene (SP?) being captured. Granted it's bad but it's nothing that hasn't happened before.
Not only that, but Rand cleansed the male half of the source in the last book and we don't even get to see him do jack in this book. For that matter we don't even see him till we're over half way done with the book.
My main problem and the reason i'm ranting about this is that there was harldy anything at all in this book that furthered the story. All the problems that we had in book 9 are unresolved at the end of book 10. I, personally, would have been willing to wait another 6 months to a year for a better book. That's how low that book rates with me in this series.
Just in case there is someone who is reading this post that hasn't read the book i'll save you the trouble and sum it up for you real quick.
1. Perrin is gonna get help from the Seachan to get rid of the shaido.
2. Rand and the Seachan are trying to from an alliance to get rid of the Shaido (from different source than Perrin)
3. Egwene is betrayed by someone and captured by Aes Sedai in the White Tower.
That's about all that happened. I haven't decided yet whether i'm going to just quit reading this series till Jordan finishes it. I'll probally wait for the next book before deciding that and if 11 doesn't make up for what 10 did then i'll sit out and wait for the end of the series b4 picking it up again.
