Those of us who have read the whole series have been waiting a long time for the final book, and Sanderson has delivered with a very satisfying end to this epic saga of good vs evil. I could not put this book down once I started reading it, and Sanderson did an excellent job of maintaining the integrity of characters and tying up most, if not all, of the loose ends that this massive series has produced. One note for the reader, the way the very end plays out will make more sense if you remember the scene in one of the previous books where Rand and Moridin (Ishmael) cross their streams of balefire. At least I thought there was a connection there. I absolutely recommend this book to any who have been reading the series. For those of you who have not yet, I urge you to begin with "A New Spring" (a pre-quell that Jordan wrote late in his life) and then follow the main Wheel of Time series from it's beginning... this is a rich and wonderful fantasy world, and the authors (particularly Jordan in the middle books of the series) did an unparalleled job of developing the personalities of the characters to the point that they easily become real in your imagination. This series is a must read for all fantasy readers... just be warned that these books will keep you up late many a night, unable to put them down.Read full review
Well after 21 years its finally here. The final volume in Rands' tale. I read this last book with equal amounts of joy and sadness. While eager to discover how it all will finish, I was also sad because these wonderful characters will now disappear forevermore. As for the the book itself, I found it completely enjoyable. Brandon Sanderson seamlessly melds his style/vision with R Jordans for a compelling last volume bringing all the WOT elements to very satisfying finale. I think all WOT fans will be satisfied with AMOL. A solid recommendation for the novel and two thumbs up for the concluding volume in WOT. Thank You Mr. Jordan for bringing this story to life and Mr. Sanderson for picking up the standard after Jordans demise and bringing it home for the rest of us. Bravo.
It's been a challenge to keep at these books, each one dragging on and on, in hope of some relief. But no. There's too much detail about things and characters of little matter to the story. Does it make that much difference if t\five or seven imaginary warders take part in an event that didn't happen? I'm hanging on to the sour end in hope some of the characters will find the grim deaths deserved after so many thousands of pages of reader torture.

This is an amazing book! I have been reading Jordan since 1999 and was devastated when he dead!! It was great being able to finish the work. Sanderson did a great job finishing the series!! I couldn't put it down.
