Query: Picked up the pace, but lost it's heart

I need to go on record as saying that WOT has been my favorite series for several years now. In the first five books of the series Mr. Jordan was able to create real people that we cared about and could empathize with. While I found the pace of last few novels very frustrating, I was able to tollerate them because I still cared about most of the main players.In this book, Mr. Jordan has focused so much on making the story progress that he forgot to make us care about the people we have known for years. There were only two or three times in the entire book where I seemed to get lost in a characters emotions. I no longer feel like an extra participant in this adventure.I wouldn't care if WOT ended up being 15 books long, if the balance of story progression and detail were restored. If not, Mr. Jordan should stop here. If the final book is as heartless as this one, I won't be able to go back and read the series again.
