At about 2:30 am last night, Pacific Time, I finished Robert Jordens 10th Wheel of Time book, Crossroads of Twilight. As always, the book is well written, Butit seems that most of the book is spent on Perrin and Egwhin, then Mat. It only touches on Rand briefly, which is a same after what he did in the last book. If your looking for alot of action, it wont really be there, this is one of the books that sets up events for things to come. They should have contiuned the for a little more to talk more on Rand, what they left off with him looks to be very awsome, but unfortuantly, with they ended the book, it feels incomplete.

Over all, I give the book a 6 out of 10.

any questions about the book?

Yeah I have a question.

When will RJ learn to stop pulling this shit.

I mean leaving the book open for the next installment is fine. But her really leaves it feeling half written. Not to mention the way he changes a character acts halfway through the series.

I read "See Spot Run"

This is a thrilling book on a dog and his journies of running, I also HIGHLY reccommend it.

I give it a 10/10.

I don't he does that to often. This is the first book i think that feels half written. And about the way a character changes halfway through a series, It's called character development. Have a mans wife kidnapped, and might be dead, said man will change. Or Have a guy with enemies around him that he can't always see, his future is bleak and he know it, have things hard on him, and he's going to change.

It's the public library where I work.

I my job.

Unless you also live in Illinois, though, further details would not be terribly useful to you.

I only got about halfway through the first book, and that was enough to finish the series about 3 times over. Five minutes afterwards, I had a yawnfest
