Rereading The Dragon Reborn

[Elucia Nileran]

Spoiler: Black ajah

It feels weird knowing who is black ajah. The amount of times Sheriam is just so obvious in hindsight has floored me. I was so shocked when I first discovered Sheriam was a dark friend.

Same! I haven't started a re-read yet, so I haven't experienced the "obvious in hindsight" part, but dang, I was just as thrown off by her being a dark friend. And then by how pathetic she became after that reveal.

During my rereads, I was actually more impressed by her ability to serve the DO while actually do things in favor of the light.

reveals such as Rand's r/s to Galad, etc

, I admit that I missed during my first read through. I was just so focused on the main storyline. It is from all the subsequent re-reads (and discussions among other fans), that I have started to appreciate the depth and complexity of the story and the writing.

I hope that all who read here do so after reading the books But in general, this forum doesn't require spoiler tags.
