Winter's Heart (The Wheel of Time, #9)
by
I still cannot wrap my head around the fact that Rand loves three women and they are okay with it. This is one of the story points in this series that really bothers me. (view spoiler). To be honest, I don't think I can enjoy the whole series because of the way it treats women.
Having said that, this was by far the easiest book to read since there weren't many new characters introduced to the plot. It's often challenging to keep up with every single new character in each book. The storyline was somewhat straightforward, so I'm curious to see what Jordan has in store for me in the next book.

The romance in the series is a joke. I don't buy that he love all three women equally. Min the one that he soends majority of time with so he obviously should have had more of an connection with her than the other 2. I think RJ just didn't wanna choose so we ended up with this outcome

The "Wheel of Time" is one of my favourite fantasy series. Still, I agree with your comments in your review, and in my opinion, if Jordan had benefited from a better editor this series would be reduced to 3/4 books and perhaps (and I insist on PERHAPS) it would have already become a classic on the genre.The petty disputes between the various male and female characters are almost ridiculous and absurd due to their constant repetition.
Besides, we all know that Women are superior to Men and the proof is in Catholic mythology:
After all, when God gave life to his creation, he first conceived Man, and then the Woman. Do you know why? Because every great artist, before creating his masterpiece, always makes some rough sketches...😜

I have still 5 last book to go through and based on other people reviews I kind of expect that it becomes more interesting from now on.
Maryam wrote: "I kind of expect that it becomes more interesting from now on..."Indeed! The last books are the best. You will notice at once the "hand" of Brandon Sanderson when he stepped in to finish the final three books after Jordan's death.
And then you have the prequel "New Spring" which is interesting but not at the same level as the rest.
