I’m enjoying this book. It’s fun to revisit hard core epic fantasy after some time away.

The gender dynamics in The Wheel of Time are… interesting. Why are the women all concerned with “civilizing”, “housebreaking,” and “training” men, like they are alternately children or animals?

The problem with chosen ones is they have so little choice. Love it.

Not a fan of the spice level.

An irrelevant side quest is not a plot twist

Against my better judgment, I am continuing to read this book.

I need a cozy fantasy person to help me out: is it against genre conventions to show people claiming to be bad actually doing bad things? Are readers expecting to have the stakes of the story told rather than shown?

A sisterhood of witches plots and a magical burden that corrupts its user. A world story that moves to fulfill its own prophecies. Rumors of darkness stirring.

This is a book club choice and I’m struggling to shift gears into it coming off of Moment Zero by Brandon Sanderson. Haven’t gotten a grip on the world yet, which is bothering me.

Firstborn might be the weakest story here so far. It’s hard to root for a character who has so little hope and agency and has given up on fighting it.
