The prime mover of the story is the conflict between the Dragon Reborn and the Dark One. They are destined to meet in the Last Battle, a confrontation adumbrated in the prologue of Book One, The Eye of the World, back in The slow turning of the series' plot is always in the direction of this final confrontation, which, according to prophecy, will break the world. The scope and diversity of "The Wheel of Time" cannot be conveyed in a few paragraphs. It is a compendium of the imagination.
Winter's Heart: Plot Summary
It encompasses dozens of venues, literally hundreds of characters, numerous elaborate political and cultural groups, and a cat's cradle of entangled subplots. Picking up Book Nine two years after finishing Book Eight, I had to consult some of the many online reference sources devoted to the series in order to recall who is who and what happened when.
Jordan is not much of a stylist, but he is a fastidious and cunning storyteller; the plotting is intricate, requiring patience and concentration on the part of the reader. It is a testament to his craftsmanship that so many readers remain devoted to the series despite the lengthy breaks between books -- a noteworthy accomplishment in this era of dwindling attention spans. The glacial pace of the past few books has been frustrating, however.

While Books One to Four were good enough to ensure that I, and millions of others, would keep reading, Books Five to Eight suggested that Jordan's seemingly limitless faculty for juggling multiple storylines had reached its limit. He substituted dithering for plotting, devoting lengthy passages to fetishistic descriptions of characters' clothing, the weather, the minutiae of the physical surroundings.
The inertia of detail braked the momentum of story. Winter's Heart, however, is encouraging, even though trivial romantic dilemmas and periods of pensive inaction still tend to overshadow the momentousness of what is going on. It is not a swift book, but at least it moves.

The long final chapter in particular is a showcase for Jordan's strengths as a writer. It depicts a battle involving 30 or 40 people, and Jordan switches amongst a dozen viewpoints, but there is no confusion or excess; the scene is handled with precision and economy of effect, providing a memorable final flourish and expertly setting the stage for the next book.
The rest of Winter's Heart isn't nearly as good, but it is good enough. And it seems, for the first time, that Jordan is tying together old loose ends instead of dangling new ones. The end is not in sight, but it is now possible to believe that an end exists. Jordan's habitual failings are also evident in Winter's Heart.

Like too many of Tolkien's heirs, "The Wheel of Time" suffers at times from banal characterizations, unsubtle prose, a deep-rooted conservatism and sexual prudishness. It is distinguished from its cousins, however, by its scope and ambition. Those that did appear got little development, despite several chapters. The only thing that comes close to being a saving grace for this novel is the cleansing of the male magic, saidin, source.

But even that is mostly ruined by its pacing. Raymond Chandler Robert Jordan is not. And then only after the last baddie is dead does he decide to go back to the other place of EVIL, Shadar Logoth, and use the two badass items to allow him and his former neighborhood Wisdom, Nynaeve, to begin the cleansing.
This power use draws all the Forsaken baddies out that can leave their covert hiding holes and they try to attack Rand and Friends, but some timely new Links and found Power objects repel them and then all of the two EVILs collide and it bursts like an atomic bomb, cleaning the male Power source.

Duh End. This was just a poor novel in virtually all aspects of narrative, prose, theme, characterization, and pacing. The usually poor prose was in full bloom here, the characterizations were mostly fraught with this new sense of emoness, especially on the part of the formerly stolid Perrin, and then there was that very kinky First Sister ceremony that begs to be parodied.
This was just a poor novel in virtually all aspects of narrative, prose, theme or what thematic developments?
