1. Scene in the book
Best: Tricky, probably Lan's fight with Demandred or Rodel's POV right before he got taken down.
Worst: Pretty much the whole Lost Horn bit.
2. Plot wrap up
Best: White Tower ending with Cadsuane as Amrylin. "Finally, a logical choice requiring no handwaving explanations"
Worst: Black Tower wrap up, Logain fell flat. I was also very dissatisfied with the Seanchan, and would name that as my pick if it weren't that RJ meant to leave that unsatisfactory as a lead in to a future series.
3. Character death
Best: I suppose Egwene/Gawyn, but I'm not fond of either
Worst: Bashere, Bryne/Siuan, they just got shuffled off stage
4. New tidbit of knowledge (OP or otherwise)
Best: It was pretty cool to see gateways get used well, though sometimes it was a bit irritatingly over-powered or cute.
Worst: True Power Sa'Angreal. I can't help but feel that could have been done better in a lot of ways. It was nearly Deus Ex Machina.

I can't help but think the majority was unimpressed with AMOL

I'm surprised at how many people didn't realize that Mat was no longer tied to the horn.

I loved it. There's been plenty of discussion on TL and Dragonmount *NM*

From what I've seen, it's seen as "good enough" as the last book of the series...
