The Great Walrus

WoT? I like RJ's storytelling but his characters lack flexibility. Most of them follow patterns based on some preset traits that he mentioned at some point.

I agree, but i still find it enjoyable. Aside from Path of Daggers, where somehow in over 600 pages, nothing of any significance happens...

He ends up with well over a 100 characters whose story-lines he must keep track of. It's an extremely ambitious project for a writer. Not to mention that some of the main female personalities are indiscernible over longer chapters (I remember confusing Egwene for Nynaeve during their inner monologues). But I'm probably being unfair; it's still a fascinating world he created.
