Brandon Sanderson breathed new life into the series for me. This book was jam-packed with all the threads as the last battle climaxed. I found myself chuckling and making a sound in response to sad scenes, which is a stronger reaction than I had to most of Robert Jordan's other books. I am glad I read it all, but I don't know what I'd categorize as a must-read for others. I like the complexity, but getting to the end was a huge time commitment.
