I honestly thought Rand would kill Couladin in some fashion after a hard fought battle but instead it was Mat! I did not see that one coming at all. I thought Mat would lose finally and then be brought with Couladin to face Rand but that did not happen! What a plot twist.

The prophet is Masema and Uno and Ragan has reappeared. Nynaeve and Elayne aren’t exactly in trouble but they are not far from it at the moment. Birgitte has been cast out of world of dreams and now who knows what will happen. The black ajah and Moghidien are looking for them.

Stuff is really kicking off! Rand is in Cairhien, Nynaeve and Elayne is close to Siuan, Leane and Min

A lot of these last 100+ pages has focused on Egwene, Nyaeneve, Elayne and Rands storylines but we have finally gotten back to Min and Siuan! I wish we could see more of Perrin though. He is my favorite character and we have not seen him in this book yet

I’m really enjoying this book! The pace is perfect for me and it feels like we are getting somewhere in the story. There are so many different storylines at the same time but it is woven so intricate and beautiful.

This book is growing on me. It’s quite a stressful time at work so the slow pace of the book is exactly what I need. I feel like my 10-25 pages a night is a nice way of reading this book

First Rand chapter is in the books and you can tell he is getting more and more intertwined with Lews Therin. Egwene and Moraine does not have it easy

As usual the start of the Robert Jordan books are not as fast paced
