11 has some great scenes, especially with the Seanchan and Mat of course, but then I guess that scenes have always been his strong point. It's just books that cause problems for him. ;)

I agree. Excellent post.

His series has turned into a bit of a farce inh my opinion. If he had planned it correctly, learnt how to write decent characters, give a good story line, and done everything else a good author would have done - this series wouldn't be so bad...
