I actually read all the books, and if you can get through them you can really tell two things. One, that she's a horrible author, and that two she's a female. I know these things because the books spent hundreds of pages of characters talking about their feelings, and only a scant 40 on what could only loosely be called "action" scenes.
Even the big, huge confrontation at the end of the series was a letdown.
Meh.
