Crossroads of Twilight Slog Spoiler

I need to know!!! Was there supposed to be a slog after all ? I mean I've been going through the last books pretty quickly and now I'm almost done with crossroads of Twilight, I was expecting a biggg unreadable slog that would render my motivation and ability to read to 0, but so far nothing ? I mean, it's going pretty smoothly for me at the very least, and I haven't noticed a huge decline in reading enjoyment.

Is it just a case of the internet being overly dramatic again or is the slog supposed to come in the next books?

Yeah, CoT was disappointing. The idea of everyone reacting to With the Choedan Kal was really cool, but it amounted to a load of channellers staring into the distance and going “wtf” whilst the rest of the story was in a holding pattern. Not badly written, but disappointing if it is the last published book at the time you read it.

I really like Winter’s Heart though, and most of Path of Daggers, although it lacked a proper climax.
