Just finished reading The Shadow Rising, and the fact that she is willing to sacrifice one of the Forsaken to achieve her goals is incredible. Same with when she tries to convince Perrin to kill Rand or Moraine or Nynaeve (I can’t remember which) in aMoL.Gah, Selene in the books drives me nuts. She's so obviously evil!! Like, "Rand, get the horn for the glory! You'll be a great man, Rand! But what about seeking glory?" Not a subtle bone in her body. Only a woolhead like Rand would fall for her hot evil lady nonsense.
