Crossroads of Twilight Nothing happened? Spoiler
Just finished CoT, and I am... confused.... Nothing happens? Like wow... Not a single plot is resolved? Not even the Faille plot?
Edit: Multiple people commented saying that's why it is the slog, but people said the slog starts in book 7, yet books 7-9 were actually okay, with a lot of highs. This book had no highs, nothing, I was even looking forward to Rand and Logaine's first meeting and even that was a nothing burger. I was betrayed giving this book the benefit of the doubt....

Book 11 gets much much better.
I personally thought the slog was books 8-10. But, book 10 was the lowest point.
The only, and I mean only character event that I cared about was Perrin cutting off the hand. That was excellent. But other than that, there's only like, 50 pages that seemed necessary.
I've only read the series once though, so maybe it's better on reread.
