Although I do worry about the story turning into a tit for tat now that Rand is more accepting of his powers and role.
Fires of Heaven was one of the first 'meh' books IMO. I like Lord of Chaos (book 6) but others felt it wasn't great. I'm curious as to what your reaction will be when the city really hits its low points (like book 8). TSR was a fantastic book, it had a very 'scouring of the shire' feel to it.
