    2015 Re-Readalong: Eye of the World and The Great Hunt

    I think the final one was about Tam and Kari. there were also plans for a sort of sequel, mostly focusing on Mat and Tuon, but no of them had enough notes for any other author to have any real idea of what would have happened, unlike the main series.

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 The Damane thing never really played out for me. For one, the sul'dam were a big source of potential damane that seemed to be ignored (I wonder if this would have played out in the Seanchan books had ever been written - with the various warring armies...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 I think Rand's comments that "some don't even sound like names" is a bit silly. I get Jordan was trying to convey that they came from a different age, but given the huge variation in names we actually see, and especially considering he has just had...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 My problem with Egwene is her arrogance here. She decides that because Rand can channel, she can't have Rand, so she tries telling other people (Min and Elayne specifically) that they can't have him either, and if they think differently, they are wrong

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 I liked Min's response to Egwene. Egwene dropped him, so there really was no reason why Min couldn't pick him up

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 She says "sense" rather than "detect", which might just be semantics, but it might also be her saying something that isn't true. We do know from later that any time she says anything ambiguous, she runs it over in her head to make sure she can justify it...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 The world's that might be intrigue me. In some of them, the Last Battle is decades later. Would those possibilities still exist after the actual Last Battle? From what Verin says, if the Dark One is free in one World he is free in all and if he is...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 45-50 I don't know how Verin would know that, but it is possible. The couple in training Verin mentioned could have included Theodrin and Faolin. Though as she thinks Logain wouldn't be strong enough and Logain is stronger than all the women she named (in some...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 38-44 Until she decides she is in love with Gawyn, I don't think she does show much more of an interest. And of course, later, Galad is supposed to have been interested in Nynaeve, and his attitude to Egwene just that of politeness, but I don't see anything to...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 38-44 I'm not convinced Liandrin did lie to them, but after all her talk of Black Ajah, they should certainly have worked out at that time she was one, though perhaps they can be forgiven for not having it at the top of their mind

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 38-44 He was ripped apart, which suggests to me the ''gholam''. whoever did it, it doesn't seem political (that would be much simpler I think) and by someone who could get the information about what Barthanes did, and then get the killer to him very quickly

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 38-44 Also, I wonder why the Seanchan killed the Watchers? What were they doing wrong that offended them so much they didn't just make them swear the oaths?

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 31-37 Does Liandrin actually lie when smuggling the girls out It was interesting that in one of the other realities, Egwene was a talented Healer - in the main world she could barely Heal a bruise, and we learn later that many of the former Wise Women who...

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 10-16 The strange repeating may have something to do with Fain, as he does something similar after killing the two Asha'man in Far Madding

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 10-16 I'm not sure about that. They took advice from Siuan, very grudgingly, but it was clear most of them didn't want her there and she was never put forward as someone to rally around

    Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: TGH Chapters 2-9 We see here a lot of Siuan's troubles with the Hall. Two Greens and two Whites both treated Siuan as a Blue (as well as Leanne). they aren't named, but are probably Saroiya, Velina, Rubinde and Talene (assuming there were no changes in the Hall between...
