In a lot of ways, this is my favorite book in the series.  You find out more about Churchill's thinking in this book, because he is divorced, by and large, from what is happening.

Truly, the parallels between Rand al'THor and Winnie are astounding and disturbing.

I don't get viruses. I don't fuck without condoms  and I don't fuck around. Same with digital shit. Like me, it's either on or off.

Yup  :yes: I don't know why, but I really enjoyed the chapters with Egwene, earlier I haven't but there was something different about them  :nerd: but I also enjoyed the chapters with Rand less  :Embarrass:

Well the man is going horribly mad.

My Mom is shipping me my copy to Korea today. I have to wait a whole week, and I won't have the internet until the first week of November so I won't be able to download the audiobook. :(

Do they not have engrish bookstores there?

Is this the last book?  I stopped at #4, but if this ends it maybe I'll pick it up.

I preordered the book before I knew I was going to Korea.

#12 out of a projected 14. Why stop at 4? That was my favorite book in the series.

I think my list stands at 4,6,11,9,5,3,1,2,8,7,10.

The Great Hunt was the best, followed by whatever the fuck 4 was named.  Its been so long the rest blend together, although the Lord of Chaos wasn't as bad

And don't forget braid-yanking.

Or has it changed since the woman-hater died?

The book is plot heavy, Sanderson sticks to Jordans way of writing, so it is a WoT book. It's good writing handiwork. But as with all the other books Rand gets less and less interesting and Mat and Perrin get more and more interesting. Women wise, they all get more irritating and less plausible.

It was excellent! Definitely somewhere in my top three for the series.  :)
