I just read what he wrote. That it's not near as good as KoD or the first six books. I'm having trouble figuring out how he came up with that, but obviously he's entitled to his opinion and some people won't like the book.
As a point of reference, these are the approximate order of the other books for me:
1. The Shadow Rising
2. Lord of Chaos
3. The Dragon Reborn
4. Knife of Dreams
5. Fires of Heaven
6. Eye of the World
7. The Great Hunt
8. Crown of Swords
9. Winter's Heart
10. Crossroads of Twilight
11. Path of Daggers
I think after reading it only once and having a day for it to sink in I'd put TGS at number 4 on that list.
My favorite "good" characters are:
Mat
Tuon
Siuan
Moiraine
Egwene
My least favorite "good" characters are:
Perrin
Rand
Gawyn
