Anyone read The Gathering Storm? Thoughts?

I reread the new book and the book before that (a knife of dreams) again in the last few days, because ive had the flu and not much else to do. The new book I must say was pretty damn entertaining. They are finally starting to tie up the loose ends and bringing the story together instead of having like 8 different storylines going on all at once there were maybe 3 in this book, which was nice and easy to keep up with. I cant wait to finish this series and i think that this guy Brandon Sanderson was a good choice because I wouldnt even have noticed that this book was written by a different author.

Sword of truth was ok, the first few books were good. But Goodkind did blatantly rip off much of what jordan did, and in my opinion the books were not at all as detailed in story line or characters as wheel of time. The books were entertaining, but they could not keep up with the scope of the wheel of time books. Plus who always wants to see the hero win by pulling off crazy impossible nonsense everytime, its just got way to ridiculous throughout that series.

Hopefully tho george rr martin will finally finish a song of fire and ice before he passes away, because if he doesnt i will lose my mind. They are by far my favorite books and i just have a bad feeling with the way he has been taking his time, we may never see the end of his story.

well he's also been busy helping with the live-action 'Game of Thrones' being done for...hmm..I think It's Showtime or HBO...
