I don't understand the intense critisism of the book. Sanderson did an amazing job coordinating the last battle with the constant shifting between perspectives. It really helped show how dire the situation was on all fronts. I agree that some of the characters roles were not resolved sufficiently, or at all for some, but I can't see how that could have been done without another book or two--this appears was never going to happen. I really can't see how RJ himself could have finished the series without it being 6 more books after KoD--remember AMoL was supposed to be the LAST book after KoD. When RJ died I knew that no author would be able to duplicate his style of writing, so I prepared myself to except something different and enjoy it. And I have. I am hoping that the encyclopedia will be very extensive and provide some closure for some of the characters that didn't make it to prime time.
