Love in the Shadow of Dragonmount - a romantic tale of heroic Warders, heaving busts and slipping shawls, by Romanda Cassin

 

This one is my favorite! :biggrin:

 

It's time for something of the Shadow. Let's begin with some classic stuff:

 

"DO's 13"- a nice comedy of errors with a somewhat ominous message, written with the Hand of Darkness

"Bore alone"- a moving tale with a heartening ending for all the nostalgic DFs

"Postman always rings twice. Shaidar Haran doesn't"- you'd better forget it, unless you're Moridin at least

"Asmodean- Chopin of the Shadow: shock-lances buried in flowers"- Greandal's tribute to an old friend

They died creatively - Rand al'Thor, a story about the Forsaken, and how they died (for example, being killed by a tree (Balthamael)).

 

Dragon in Danger - Matrim Cauton, about Rand when he died, and was being brought back, his women waiting for him.

 

The Fox with Fortune - Rand al'Thor, about Matrim Cauton. It is not clear if "fortune" means his luck, or Fortuona.

Two Rivers - about the place Manetheren, then known as Two Rivers, before the Last Battle.

Manetheren - about the place Manetheren after the Last Battle.

 

The Bloodsnow - Tamlin al'Thor, about the Battle of the Shining Walls.

 

Tarwin's Gap - al'Lan Mandragoran, about the Battle of Tarwin's Gap, that ensured victory for the Light in the Last Battle.

 

Keep your hands of! - Berelain, about the Mayene (mostly involving Tear), before the last battle.

The Children of the Light - Berelain, about Mayene after the Last Battle. Half of the books is about Galadedrid Damodred, Lord Captain Commander of the Children of the Light.

A few self-help books would probably sell well in these turbulent times:

 

How to Win Friends and Influence People by Elaida do Avriny a'Roihan. Not to be confused with a much earlier work of the same title by Kamarile Maradim Nindar.

 

I CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE IN JUST SEVEN AGES - a self-help book by T. Creator. An extensive treatise - not for the casual reader, or those who don't like upper-case.

 

Balefire 101: Its Uses, Hazards, and - an incomplete work. Author unknown - to date, the publisher has been unable to find anyone who remembers who actually wrote it, or indeed, how it came into their hands.

Corrupted Nobles - Rand al'Thor, with are foreword of Siuan Sanche. About the nobility of Tear.

 

Reincarnation - Nynaeve al'Meara. About the Dragon Reborn in the Last Battle.

 

The Luck is not with the Forsaken - Matrim Cauton. The writer claims to have killed Demandred without any help.

 

Creatures of Shadow - Moridin. About the creatures the Dark One used in the Last Battle. Not to be confused with Creatures from a Mirror World, about the Seanchan creatures.

Sweeping floors by Siuan Sanche.

A story about Elaida, cleaning the floors in her palace, inhabited by Ashaman. She always wears a six-striped stola as a sign of her shame.

 

The Marriage of Tam al'Thor and Cadsuane Melahdrin by Nynaeve al'Maera

A really boring story. The only interesting thing is that Mat gave Tam a copy of his foxhead ter'angreal. ( Elaine's Talent has been improved)

The Last Battle - About the Battle of Caemlyn, by Matrim Cauton, who seems to consider this battle as the true Last Battle.

 

Tarwin's Gap - Lan Mandragoran, about the Assault of the Malkiri, and their reconquering of the land.
