I've read the series from Book one to ten at least half a dozen tmes, and you can really see how he seemed to have lost focus on the ending sometime around book 4 or 5. I actually stopped reading around Book ten, deciding to only go back when the last book in the series comes out.

I guess people like us didn't all keep buying though! I quit after the third or fourth book because they were just too long. I loved the story but there was just way too much 'fluff' in there...
