I don't think the next book will be a bloodbath. I don't see RJ ending it that way.
Then again, I'm also rooting for the Shadow to win. What? I always root for the underdog.
I think I was rooting for the Lightsiders in Book 1, and a bit in Books 2 and 3 as well. But mostly I've been rooting for the underpowered Shadow after Chosen started dropping like flies.
I did kinda like that Graendal escaped Natrin's Barrow. That whole bit was pretty decent, and I loved the dove thing. She's a resourceful one, that Graendal.
I sometimes wish that Moridin hadn't been named Nae'blis so damned early on ("early"...pssh). I feel that if the Chosen had been doing their own thing, they may have actually put a hurting on the Light. Instead it's a bunch of "Go ask Moridin if we can kill anyone" and "Shadar Haran is watching! You won't get any presents if you're bad!". Both him and that big, fatheaded, 'roid-ed up Myrrdraal can go mindtrap each other for all I care. You'd think the Dark One has this super-intricate, fool-proof plan laid out to beat the Light, with all the policing of the Chosen that's going on.

Agreed. The series is formulaic and predictable, and even I expected a few more twists.

It's a well told story with fun characters overall, but it's definitely not "War & Peace"
