Crossroads of Twilight is the tenth book in the best-selling Wheel of Time series.
Crossroads of Twilight is a book where literally nothing happens, an astonishing feat considering how long it is; with this ability of writing an enormous book filled with nothing, Jordan could conceivably write an infinite set of books in the series.

 The SF Site Featured Review: Crossroads of Twilight
The last four novels of the series have increasingly slowed in pace, or spun off in new directions that as yet have not significantly enhanced the development of the central themes, if anything at times seeming to exist for their own sake and a playing out of the narrative.
With Crossroads of Twilight the story has reached idle, a situation not improved by reports that Jordan intends to interrupt the series in order to write a prequel.
And this accusation becomes well-founded by books such as Crown of Swords, Path of Daggers, Winter's Heart and Crossroads of Twilight which, intentionally or not, become little more than dalliance in what was once a successful series evolving with a cohesive vision.

He is Cairhienin (Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 5).
It was not that he [Lan] seemed merely capable of violence and death; this man had tamed violence and death and kept them in his pocket, ready to be loosed in a heartbeat, or embraced, should Moiraine give the word.

 Book: Buy Crossroads of Twilight (The Wheel of Time, Book 10) Online
Much like the previous two books in the series Crossroads of Twilight is mostly a set up for things to come.
Things are beginning to be brought back together and I believe we're finally seeing the beginning of the end of WOT, something that's bittersweet to me. COT doesn't have the quick pace of the early novels, the suprising plot twists of the middle novels, or the grand developments that happened in WH.

 A Review of Crossroads of Twilight
I understand that Crossroads of Twilight wasn't perfect and some people just want these huge action sequences, but I don't understand the backlash of anger in many the reviews.
The ending of Crossroads is more a cliffhanger of a mystery novel than a conclusion of a fantasy novel, which is alternately frustrating and exhilarating.
I thought the prologue was very interesting, it brought up many views of how the world was reacting to current political trends, that is all life is anyway.

 Demensions - Book Review: Crossroads of Twilight
Much of Crossroads of Twilight takes place in roughly the same time period as the final section of Winter's Heart, covering the actions of various groups of characters who were offstage then.
If you are a follower of the Wheel of Time and have not yet purchased Crossroads of Twilight, save yourself from that bitter disappointment.
Accept Crossroads for what it is: a decently written, probably at least somewhat necessary, not especially engrossing interlude of plot maintenance in what is, overall, still a magnificent, enthralling tale, truly epic in its scope.

 Abbyland - [Book Review: CROSSROADS OF TWILIGHT]
After the epilogue of Crossroads, with the mention that Suroth wants Rand to meet the Daughter of Nine Moons, I suspect Suroth has a trap waiting for Rand.
Moving along to other topics...I was a little bit disappointed that the pack of fifty Darkhounds did not show up in this book, which was, after all, named Crossroads of Twilight (a Randland myth states that you are most likely to encounter Darkhounds at crossroads during twilight).
Rand did even less in Crossroads of Twilight than in volumes 3 and 8.

The eagerly awaited 10th installment (after 2000's Winter's Heart) in Jordan's monumental Wheel of Time has all the breadth and depth that have made this fantasy author one of the acknowledged greats of the genre.
Like Tolkien's Ring trilogy, Wheel of Time is a single, extended novel rather than a series, and in Crossroads, new characters join the cast and old favorites grow ever more complex.

In fact, the sub-plots are actually destroying the storey, along with the endless detail which also serves to bog the main story down, and detract from the main plot.
In the Crossroads of Twilight, it is possible to not read entire pages or chapters, and still understand what's going on.
In fact, if the reader chose not to read at least one of the novels between the sixth and Crossroads, he or she will still be able to follow the plot of the next novel.
