    Knife of Dreams re-readalong: To the End!

    One thing about Rand losing his hand, there is one thing that they never really gets covered. He can't play his flute anymore which is quite sad.

    There is only one solution to this, we need an Orange Ajah and Ajah dedicated to MAD SCIENCE! (As far as Magic can be SCIENCED! at least, yes it is magic however that does not mean that you can not apply the Scientific Method to it.)

    Knife of Dreams re-readalong: To the End!

    KOD - 33 : Woo! Siege of Camelyn is over, Pincer attacks can be quite effective as I well know KOD - 34 : Karade is a smart guy, he sees right through Mat's plan, but doesn't tell his compatriots. KOD - 35 : Elayne is now the official queen yay I guess. This plot did drag on far too long in...

    Knife of Dreams re-readalong: To the End!

    So random thought time. In book 4 we find out that part of the Two River's marriage traditions is "The two must be engaged for a year" now Two Rivers is almost as close to an "Age of legends" style government as can be with 3 thousand years of separation between current day Westland and The...

    Knife of Dreams re-readalong: To the End!

    She is somewhat helpless here but she does attempt to actively escape with her own plans, and I think it was good to see her fail. She has generally been shown as "Super Smart Spy lady who is always right when it comes to political intrigue" from book 4 on so having her actually fail on...

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 28-33 KOD - 25: The Reds really lose steam on the whole "Bonding Asha'man" stuff when the Rebels have already voted to do so. Mat is so freaked out by the concept of kissing Tuon that he holds back and gets told to man up, and come on guys! You have...

    Knife of Dreams re-readalong: To the End!

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 24-27 21 - I find it really hard to buy into the whole "Dark one is making all food spoil and everyone everywhere is starving" thing, it gets really grating as the series goes on especially in the last book where the implication is that every town...

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 19-23 19 – Ogier wedding, which backfires horribly on Loial's Mother. That is what we call REKT! And then Trollocs show up, which proves that weddings are always the worst thing, they always end badly like in Invasions by the dark armies. 20 – This...

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 19-23 Part of me wonders if that shouldn't have been in the Prologue, the very first thing we see, it would have been a great way to signal "Okay guys, COT was the last low point in the action, from here on out the story is going towards the climax."

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 19-23 Oh it is a terrible thought Mother, but A tinker channeler would probably be..the most stalwart and stand up against the training the best. The Sul'dam would get creeped out when the Damane pities her.

    Knife of Dreams re-readalong: To the End!

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 19-23 Going back to the Chapter with the Tuathuan. I had another thought. How exactly are the Seanchan going to react to the tinker channeling girls when the tinkers see them out in the world and completely fawn over them, and how the tinker girls...

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 13-18 KOD – 9:While I am against Slavery, these Aes Sedai TOTALLY deserved to get collared here, They have deserved a nice knocking down a peg for the way they have treated Mat for the past 2 books, especially throwing rocks at him. KOD – 10: And...

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 8-12 KoD 7 – It is a good thing that I am not Mat Cauthon. If I were Mat all 5 of these children and their warder's would be Tied up on the edge of their beds and would have to be fed like babies. Seriously the crap Mat puts up with from Joline is...

    Re: Knife of Dreams re-readalong: Chapters 1-7 Prologue Galad – Woo, Galad kills Valda for killing Morgaise which..he didn't. So much for Judgment under the light. Whoops I guess? Rodel – Meh, nothing really important here. The Rebellion against the Seanchan doesn't really go anywhere...
