Robert Jordan has truly lost grip of his story. Nothing, and I mean nothing, gets accomplished in this tome of a book. People talk endlessly and conspire, armies move in glacial fashion, and very little else. ( )

Climax. Well? It was small, but gave me the chills, and set the series up for number 11. A good read. Mat's story gets thicker than stew and gives the book flavor. Mat seems to do this to the whole series. ( )

Good book. Took some time off from this series and I wish there was a place to reacquaint oneself with all of the story lines and characters. That said, I am once again immersed and enjoying the 10th book. Parts about Mat are the best. ( )

Crossroads of Twilight is book 10 in the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. I love all of the other books in this series, but Winter's Heart was incredibly boring. 90% of the book (or so it seems) is Perrin's trek to rescue his wife from the Shaido Aiel. ( )

And it shall come to pass, in the days when the Dark Hunt rides, when the right hand falters and the left hand strays, that mankind shall come to the Crossroads of Twilight and all that is, all that was, and all that will be shall balance on the point of a sword, while the winds of the Shadow grow. --From The Prophies of the Dragon translation believed done by Jain Charin, known as Jain Farstrider, shortly before his disappearance

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0812571339, Mass Market Paperback)

In the tenth book of he Wheel of Time from the New York Times #1 bestselling author Robert Jordan, the world and the characters stand at a crossroads, and the world approaches twilight, when the power of the Shadow grows stronger.Fleeing from Ebou Dar with the kidnapped Daughter of the Nine Moons, whom he is fated to marry, Mat Cauthon learns that he can neither keep her nor let her go, not in safety for either of them, for both the Shadow and the might of the Seanchan Empire are in deadly pursuit.Perrin Aybara seeks to free his wife, Faile, a captive of the Shaido, but his only hope may be an alliance with the enemy. Can he remain true to his friend Rand and to himself? For his love of Faile, Perrin is willing to sell his soul.At Tar Valon, Egwene al'Vere, the young Amyrlin of the rebel Aes Sedai, lays siege to the heart of Aes Sedai power, but she must win quickly, with as little bloodshed as possible, for unless the Aes Sedai are reunited, only the male Asha'man will remain to defend the world against the Dark One, and nothing can hold the Asha'man themselves back from total power except the Aes Sedai and a unified White Tower.In Andor, Elayne Trakland fights for the Lion Throne that is hers by right, but enemies and Darkfriends surround her, plotting her destruction. If she fails, Andor may fall to the Shadow, and the Dragon Reborn with it.Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn himself, has cleansed the Dark One's taint from the male half of the True Source, and everything has changed. Yet nothing has, for only men who can channel believe that saidin is clean again, and a man who can channel is still hated and feared-even one prophesied to save the world. Now, Rand must gamble again, with himself at stake, and he cannot be sure which of his allies are really enemies.
