You Have Quite An Adventure Ahead Of You There

The first book is excellent. However, they sort of linearly drop off in action with the null arriving in book ten, "Crossroads of Twilight," though something amazing happens in book nine, "Winter's Heart."
Robert Jordan got a lot of flack for Crossroads and really outdid himself in the next one, "Knife of Dreams." It has some amazing battle scenes involving "spinning" the power. Amazing stuff.
Then, of course, Robert Jordan ups and dies. He left copious notes and even narrated the ending to family and friends "it was recorded." So Brandon Sanderson took up the mantel and is writing the final three books. He has finished the first two, and the second draft of the final book is complete. It is due next January.
I have read the series several times and am in my final re-read. I haven't read Brandon Sanderson's books yet, but I understand he did a bang-up job and is using Robert Jordan's extensive notes and recordings. Jordan's wife is the editor so things are going right.
