OK - I'm going to buck the trend here. I LOVE this series. Towers of Midnight is one of the only pbooks I've bought in ages, I had it pre-ordered, and had to force myself to go to work the day it arrived on my doorstep!
I started reading this series in 1993, and because there have been long gaps between the books I don't know how many times I've re-read it. Yes, the progress of the storyline did get slow around books 9 and 10, but it picked up again in book 11, and Sanderson has done a fantastic job with books 12 and 13. There is now just one more to go (phew) and I will finally get to find out how it ends - which is why I made it through books 9 and 10 in the first place!
If you're at all like me, you may also enjoy Leigh Butler's re-read of the series on tor.com (currently starting book 10).
