    Oh it was disturbing when the Asha’man started making the Shaido ‘splash’ when they lifted the shield. I could understand everyone wanting to vomit at that point.

     

    The scope of it all is what I enjoyed. Not necessarily the battle but the suspense of it about to go down. When all the forces are coalescing together. The wolves, the shaido, the Aes Sedai walking into battle and then th Asha’man showing up. It was pretty epic.

    It's not actually the destruction, to an extent that's expected with battle, it's the 'kneel or you will be knelt'. As a line it changes everything, but the implications are disturbing

    Honestly, that didn’t bother me a whole lot. By that point I was glad the Aes Sedai were being ‘taken down a notch’ so to speak.

  3. It’s dumai’s well and the events leading up to it for me. I probably read that chapter 3 times in a row.

     

    Second would probably be when Perrin and Slayer were fighting in tel'aran'rhiod. Perrin was pretty bad ass once he got a good grasp of the place. Even going as far as dismissing balefire as ‘just a weave’.

  4. Just coming off of a fresh read. I would say that Gawyn is my most disliked character. I enjoyed most of the characters though. There were times throughout that different characters didn't do it for me but by the end I liked them all (minus Gawyn lol). Cadsuane Sedai and Verin (her death hurt me

  5. Ahh thank you for the warm welcome Dar'Jen!.

     

    As I said in a previous post. I have been re-listening to them using my audibles credits but will most likely just reread them as I tend to get through them faster that way. Though I still have about 250 pages left in the last book to finish.

     

    I was reading through A Song of Ice and Fire and just completely fell out of it about a quarter way into the fourth book. About that time a friend had put me on to The Wheel of Time but it would be awhile before I eventually picked it up. It wasn't until August of last year that I went to the library and checked out the first book to take on a week long vacation to the Outer Banks. On August 12th I finally started reading and was immediately enraptured with it. The Dark Tower was my favorite series prior to this one. (even though it went off the rails for a bit lol) But this has easily supplanted it

  6. Thank you. It has been quite the undertaking but I have thoroughly enjoyed the journey. So much that I have been using my Audibles credits to get the audio books and listening to them any time I get in the car haha.

  7. Hello everyone! As you will most likely be able to conclude. I am new here lol (if it wasn't already apparent). I started reading The wheel of Time about 11 months ago. I am currently on the final book. On the Final Battle actually. I have enjoyed all the books. Yes, even the ones nearly everyone gripes about. Maybe since I had them all lined up and didn't have to wait between books alleviated some of it. Anyhoo, I am looking forward to meeting you fine folks and having some great discussions about The Wheel of Time and other fantasy series that may come up. Take care and may you always find water and shade. :)
