A Sanderson book, not a Jordan book, just as a point of fact Cannoli Send a noteboard - 30/05/2017 11:55:53 PM

Yeah, Perrin redeeming the Whitecloaks was an important part of the overall plot, but good grief did it require and entire freaking book...

Not in RJ's plan, since he didn't move on it until he only had one to go.

Which Part of WoT Plot Did You Dislike the Most? MrFarstrider - 30/05/2017 02:49:26 AM 1618 Views
The internecine warfare in the White Tower should have taken up about one fifth the size it did. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 06:01:47 AM 563 Views
It felt like such little payoff for staying devoted to such a terrible storyline MrFarstrider - 31/05/2017 12:33:43 AM 924 Views
The real annoyance with the WT stuff. Is not knowing if it never meant much, or just died with RJ. Dunstan - 31/05/2017 06:36:57 PM 955 Views
Almost everything to do with the Seanchan. *NM* Mix - 30/05/2017 07:51:53 AM 1067 Views
Perrin, Masema, etc nossy - 30/05/2017 01:09:20 PM 869 Views
Pretty much all the female story lines. random thoughts - 30/05/2017 01:38:39 PM 999 Views
Demandred not being Taim. Tom - 30/05/2017 02:53:40 PM 930 Views
Naw, dude, he was totally in, uh... Shara the while time. Obviously. Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 05:35:15 PM 985 Views
Totally agreed. Tom - 30/05/2017 06:52:00 PM 886 Views
Perrin rescuing Faile HyogaRott - 30/05/2017 04:11:10 PM 1024 Views
A Sanderson book, not a Jordan book, just as a point of fact Cannoli - 30/05/2017 11:55:53 PM 1069 Views
The subplot was almost the entirety of Crossroads of Twilight... *NM* HyogaRott - 01/06/2017 01:23:21 PM 576 Views
COT may have been the worst novel ever written..... *NM* Anonymous2000 - 01/06/2017 05:17:27 PM 520 Views
Have you read Vellum by Hal Duncan? It was worse. *NM* Tom - 01/06/2017 09:03:08 PM 538 Views
Ah crap. Seriously? I guess I shouldn't feel bad for having it in my to read pile for so long then. *NM* Chas - 03/06/2017 01:08:02 AM 615 Views
Nah, that "award winning" SciFi novel by sombody Adams that either Tom of Cannoli convinced me to re HyogaRott - 02/06/2017 12:56:53 PM 984 Views
There is no way I recommended a sci-fi book to someone, other than Lem's Solaris. Tom - 03/06/2017 07:25:00 PM 856 Views
Anything that had to do... Jeordam - 30/05/2017 04:45:27 PM 911 Views
Yeah, but Rand being whiny did give us the best scene in the series, IMHO. Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 08:27:54 PM 926 Views
Yeah....too bad it took Jeordam - 31/05/2017 04:27:49 PM 968 Views
Anything involving the political machinations of Cannoli's favorite character damookster - 30/05/2017 06:59:31 PM 933 Views
Most plotlines involving Egwene after book three or so. And yeah, much of Perrin's storyline. Legolas - 30/05/2017 07:15:26 PM 959 Views
So, you mean most of the Aes Sedai stuff? *NM* Ghavrel - 30/05/2017 08:22:05 PM 543 Views
Nah, there was plenty that wasn't about her. Legolas - 30/05/2017 09:06:49 PM 952 Views
I always thought making Egwene was a silly contrived story line random thoughts - 30/05/2017 09:27:01 PM 949 Views
Am I the only person who didn't hate Egwene? nossy - 30/05/2017 11:46:47 PM 928 Views
I didn't Cannoli - 30/05/2017 11:52:05 PM 1216 Views
What is happening? nossy - 31/05/2017 10:43:52 AM 1099 Views
I didn't mind her early on MrFarstrider - 31/05/2017 12:14:19 AM 1014 Views
But... Her #1 goal since the very first page she is on is to NOT be "a innkeeper's daughter". Dunstan - 31/05/2017 06:14:18 AM 959 Views
That's true, but she WAS an innkeepers daughter. nossy - 31/05/2017 10:49:04 AM 881 Views
Which simply made her all the more reckless in attempting to NOT be until she wasn't. *NM* Dunstan - 31/05/2017 04:22:46 PM 547 Views
It was the direction he took her. random thoughts - 31/05/2017 03:04:21 AM 777 Views
That's almost true of every character nossy - 31/05/2017 10:52:55 AM 884 Views
That is true random thoughts - 31/05/2017 12:20:47 PM 961 Views
I kind of feel like Seanchan was setting up for the "outrigger" stories. MrFarstrider - 31/05/2017 10:46:53 PM 969 Views
that fact that you are probably right makes it worse random thoughts - 05/06/2017 03:44:23 PM 916 Views
I actively liked her until probably around PATH OF DAGGERS. Then I was just vaguely indifferent. Ghavrel - 31/05/2017 04:15:37 AM 965 Views
I'm always impressed by people who can keep them straight. nossy - 31/05/2017 10:59:09 AM 906 Views
There are resources that can help with that. Cannoli - 31/05/2017 06:16:47 PM 1091 Views
Your geekery knows no bounds. nossy - 31/05/2017 06:37:42 PM 881 Views
I didn't at the start. Bergioyn - 11/06/2017 09:24:38 PM 1108 Views
Luca's circus...I mean "menagerie" Cannoli - 30/05/2017 11:53:54 PM 1084 Views
The return/rescue of Moiraine.....totally pointless in the end Anonymous2000 - 31/05/2017 12:52:27 PM 893 Views
It treated her as somekind of Wheel high priestess... And everone just went with it... Dunstan - 31/05/2017 07:12:40 PM 925 Views
Took forever to think of full on "plot" I'd go so far as to DISLIKE. Then it hit me. "Pink ribbons". Dunstan - 01/06/2017 06:28:13 AM 887 Views
The ludicrous amounts of subplots and minor characters. Bergioyn - 11/06/2017 09:32:32 PM 1178 Views
