I'm not looking forward to it. I'm past the middle of Lord of Chaos now and I still love it. I don't know how he manages to fumble it because it's still quite good.



Many people consider the ending of Lord of Chaos to be perhaps the high point of the entire series.

Book 7 I greatly enjoy as well.

Books 8-10 see a decline because he really did not know what to do.

11 is a true return to form, and Sanderson does a great job of ending the series with the last 3 books, even if he really struggles (and he admits that) with certain characters like Mat, who he didn't have a clue how to write.

Book 7 is great and I thought 8 was still pretty strong, Rand's storyline was great and very important to the overall story IMO.

Won't say much more to avoid spoilers but the really bad parts of the storyline didn't really come into play until Winter's Heart IMO.

Ya but he was able to figure Mat out about halfway through - he said he didn't have enough beta readers for Gathering Storm. So he didn't really understand where he missed on Mat until after his first book was out.


ETA:

This is the interview I think where I heard Sanderson talk about that stuff - i went down a rabbit hole looking for other interviews after watching this so I could be wrong. Spoilers for anyone who hasn't finished the series.
