Left so many questions unanswered. (SPOILER) So, did Lily in fact visit Hall? And if so, as is implied, wouldn't she have admitted that, to clear up the evidence against her husband? Why was the body moved??? Why was horse hair found in EVERYONE'S car? Why were there no repercussions for breaking into the judge's chambers and tampering with evidence? And maybe the biggest question, why did Martini choose the same ending as in his previous book? Mystifying. Still a Martini fan, but...well, after reading this...I need a martini!

Wasn't terrible, but left lots of unanswered questions at the end, not a very satisfying read.  I have trouble remembering the big picture plot stuff from the earlier books, so that's tough for me...I've been reading this series as the books publish, which is over many years....

Leaves many questions unanswered. Not as satisfying as previous. Author took some shortcuts and didn't give enough explanation about why familiar characters turned bad. Hope next one will be better.

So many questions answered, but new questions have risen. I need to know the answers. I love the characters to much not to know.

Want more. How can you just leave us hanging Ms. Banks?. I want to know what happens. Lucas and Rory should get their own story. Will Laney be free from his brother? Will the baby be safe. Too many unanswered questions. FINISH THE BOOK, PLEASE!!

Look, yes, the book was long. I actually re-read the first four books before reading this one, so it was a big chunk of reading. Yes, lots didn't happen during it; there were slow interludes. But some stuff does and so I was okay with the book until the ending.

So as not to give away spoilers - it felt like Martin had no idea what to do next to get his characters moving forward, so he shook the snow globe up or if you prefer knocked over the game table. And he didn't do it cleverly. He just said "hmmm, no idea where to go so let's just abruptly do a bunch of things to disrupt stuff."

Really wondering about the characters we've come to know and in many cases admire against our will. Will there be a whole new set next book?

And by the way - very tired of the way Cersei is being portrayed. She's written as a dumb blond, prey to her emotions, sluttish, power grabbing, whatever. Yet somehow she keeps ending up winning, more or less. I think he should portray her as a lot more clever than he does and stop heaping so much scorn on her.

Anyway, I really thought this was going to be the last book when I got it. But guess not. Will I read the next one? probably, assuming I'm not dead by the time it comes out or that I haven't totally forgotten about the series (it took seeing previews of the TV show to remind me of the book series and finally got me to check to see if there was a new one out).

Left too many unanswered questions.  I want all the bad guys to burn in hell and the good guys live happily after.

There was no ending!  There should at least be an explanation!  IF the explanation is there, i missed it and i read every word.  WHY should have been answered.

Interesting concept. A few unanswered, unresolved questions. Certainly worth long-listing for the Booker, but short list??? I'm not so sure...

Confused. Still many unanswered questions, unfortunately the author didn't make me want to need to know the answers enough to continue with the series.

Main story is incomplete which I knew, but wondering what Thomas had in mind for the ending.  We will never know......

It's good it was an expected ending. The Last Battle was tense, repetitive and tiresome as it's supposed to be. I felt exhausted and worn out as if I were taking part in the action. So it's ok. However, I'm still a bit confused with some unanswered questions and plot twists such as the one of Moiraine.

I mean, seriously. A great part of the previous book was dedicated to saving her, and I expected her to play some major role in the final duel or, at least, in Rand's redeption arc. And what? She appeared much later, when Rand had already changed for better. She told Egwene to break the seals - the deed Min could have easily done as she was studying prophesies in depth. And then she was just present in Shaol Ghul while Rand fought the Dark One. She was long absent from the series, and I believe she should have remained so.

Second plotline I'm really confused with is the one of Padan Fain. I don't know what to make of him. He just appeared to quickly die from Mat's hand. And he's supposed to be something even more evil than evil itself. Lost potential. Or, perhaps, he had to be dealt with earlier.

Then Demandred deus ex machina suddenly lands in the midst of the battle with horde of people nobody have even heard of previously. No insights into battle planning on the other side?

Why did Rand lose his ability to channel? Lewis Therin didn't after he had fought his battle with, I guess, similar strain. Can he be healed? Is he able to be happy without such a grand chunk of his personality? Have other channelers lost the ability too? Does it mean that channeling isn't required for maintaining peace? Is Wheel of Time broken and won't turn toward the next battle?

What of Seanchan? Had someone collared Tuon so she changed her opion on marathedamane? Or they established themselves as some sort of penal servitude for Darkfriends and Forsaken? Did they join the peace pact in truth, or Tuon just cancelled it? What now is their purpose, especially in keeping damane, if they cannot war and expand their lands?
What of Aiel? Did they change their future?

In short, I don't understand what has this post-Battle world turned into. And was the result worth fighting for.

This book was wonderful until the end. What happened to finding out who left the note? Did Tamara's dream of opening her own salon come true? Did they get married? Way to many unanswered questions for me.

This book left me with some questions: -What is the "soul of the fire" ? -How did Joseph Ander catch the chimes and what is this total new magic he came up with?
The answer to the latter question should have  been the crux of the book. However, Goodkind withholds it from us. Richard  meets an ancient brilliant wizard who went beyond additive and substractive  magic, but Richard and the reader gain no larger insight in magic. That  really hurt.
I also thought Goodkind focussed too much on Anderian  politics and culture.  -Why was the Wizzard's fifth Rule so dopey?  "look at actions not words." Come on Terry, you can do better  than that!
Goodkind's obsession with rape also gets tedious. In SoT, the  soldiers of the Imperial Order start raping even before they have won the  battle. Do they only recrute rapists or what.
At the end of book four,  Berdine meets the rest of the Mordsith. One of them says she really needs  to have a word with Richard. Where was she in SoT?
I might have forgiven  Goodkind all this but he dealt me one last blow: the ending of the book.  Richard turns into a whining child because the Anders turned him down and  he goes back to Westland.  Without his leadership the Imperial Order will  probably crush the Midlands. Why must Richard's allies pay for what the  Anders did? Does he not care about all the innocents that will be killed,  tortured and raped? I have given this book two stars because SoT offered  some interesting concepts and because the previous books were good.  "Faith of the Fallen" better be very good. However, I will make  him eat the manuscript if learn that the Wizard's sixth rule is: "Do  not cry if you bumb our knee"

although it was quick-paced and suspenseful, this installment of harry potter left quite a few unanswered questions, even ones from book 5.  this disappointed me. JK Rowling has left so much hanging. i felt like this book could have been summed up nicely in, say, 200 pages. i hope the 7th book is 1200 pages long and solves everything. by the way, i was tearing up at the end. this is the order of the books from best to worst...5, 3, 6, 2, 1, 4, in my opinion.

Ok, so I still have a few unanswered questions, but I understand these will be addressed. This was one of my favorites in the series.

Great till the end. Left some things unresolved. What about Booker? What happens to him? Next book? Or, is this it?
