Cool, cool.

Like I've said before, I'm not the biggest fan of the series, so it's not like I'm saying it's a work of genius or anything. But I do think that the twists - at least some of the biggest twists - don't come about just for the shake of being shocking and surprising. They're well set up and they have their own narrative logic; they're justified and earned howsoever you please. There are definitely times when it does, but I don't think that's true of the series as a whole. Is it anything fundamentally new? On the whole, no, but I don't think most multi-volume contemporary epic fantasy offers that. And it is entertaining, to me at least.

It might be a reaction to hype, I definitely understand where that's coming from. And, you know, if you don't like it, you don't like it. It has its qualities, but taste is taste.
