I was expected Team A stop at Selean, and generaly travel with them, like we ded in the previous books. But nah, who needs that, they are season8ed to Eianrod. At least close to it.
Oh, it's not porting, just the two pieces of maps (mainland and aield lands) can not be matched. There are ratios-differences, and different settlements on overlapping parts.

This chapter is short, and mostly insignificant- aside a writer's mistake. We know Kadere has no idea who gave him the letter. But at the last line he now knows it was some woman. Yes, RJ's writing is this dumb.

----------------

Maybe this is the first occasion Rand's previous actions give him recognition. It's funny, it's well written - why can't the whole thing be something like this?

My problem is - of course I have a problem, you know me by now - that I'm more interrested in what happened to the army, Rand sent here? Did they do their job? How is the order, what is the governmental situation, did the Lords turn on each other, or did funny business, are they still here, how they relate to the shaido siege... I have all kinds of question RJ does not bother to touch.

Aaand here is some inconsistency for you: the soldiers arrived say Cairhien stood 3 days ago (p612 at me). A couple pages later (p616 at me) they say it took 7 days to get to Rand's position.
So, which one Mr. Jordan? 3 or 7 days? How many animals of each "kind" was sent to the boat?

----------------

Aviendha just breaks up the fabric of reality and teleport. World-consistency to the trashbin.

----------------

What skirt?

And why Rand don't do a thrid kind of teleport himself? He had no problem doing that until now, and he did it many times.

And you seriously say the guhrls did not tell how to disable a nazi leash?
