The one you are reading and the one that follows it (THE FIRES OF HEAVEN) are great (some of the best RJ ever did), the 5th and 6th books are just okay (the 6th, however, contains a really epic battle!), but that's when things really slow down, and don't improve until Sanderson took over with THE GATHERING STORM. Books 8, 9, 10, and even some of 11, not a lot really happens and characters get really annoying...but not to worry, if you can slog through those, the series gets exponentially better once Sanderson took the reigns. If you at all get annoyed by the mid books you can totally skip book 10 (CROSSROADS OF TWILIGHT) without missing much of a beat and ask one of us who has read it to tell you the ONE thing that happens in that book that is worthwhile, then you can move onto KNIFE Of DREAMS which has bad bits too, but things started to happen again at least.
