I have followed Wheel of Time for a crap load of years. I started reading them 15-20 years ago.
I think they could have done more with the ending, but all in all, it was decent.
As for characters, I have a few on top of my head:
Mat, Thom and Tuon. Great stuff right there.
Rand is an ass hat straight through and Perrin is so dull it hurts.
Nynaeve, the queen of spunk. Greatness.
Padan Fain is an interesting character, but he never gets to his full potential.
Oh, and I hate the entire Aiel. So stereotypical.
If you like what Brandon Sanderson did with the last three books, I can't begin to recommend his Stomslight archives series enough. It is not finished yet, but so far it surpasses Wheel of Time in awesome factor.
