A bit of an overstatement. There are several central human characters without superhuman abilities. Whiskeyjack, Crokus/Cutter, Dujek Onearm, Murillio, etc.

With regards to Jordan's work - IMO it is an excellent fantasy series that peaks at book 4 and then begins a gradual slide down into a deep pit of aimless tedium. Book 10, Crossroads of Mediocrity, managed to have an entire chapter devoted to one of the main characters having a bath and the *entire book* managed to not advance a single outstanding plot line in the slightest. |
