Man, the wheel of time is such a slog. Just finished book 10 and that was 600 pages of setting up for action.

I'm deeply invested at this point and I can't convince myself to walk away with only 5 books remaining.

@mayintoronto I hate to say it, but it gets better when Sanderson takes over.

And book 10 is definitely the sloggiest of slogs. Even book 11 is better.

@samir My partner told me book 10 was the best. I was looking forward to plot movement.

I feel so betrayed.

@mayintoronto Your partner is either the largest troll in existence, has terrible taste, or (I hope) just got confused about which book was which, because there are SO MANY.

@samir It was the last one.

@mayintoronto Thank goodness.

So which one did they mean?

@samir we may never know. The promise of a moving plot drags on.

@mayintoronto @samir I gave up after I'd get attached to a character then they wouldn't show up for an entire book. I think it was around book 7

@ricci @mayintoronto I am glad I saw it through, and I really liked the ending, but I will not judge anyone for not bothering. There’s a lot of nothing in the middle.
