Home stretch

120 pages of Wheel of Time in a day is probs the most i have read of wheel of time in a single day. It was that, or the time I felt the need to finish the last 100 pages of Crown of Swords in one sitting.

Why did I do that

The ending wasn't noteworthy at all

It was like a random autumn break

Anyway, pretty solid Wheel of Time entry. Comfortably a top 5 WoT book.

Read like 7 chapters today and they were all bangers!!

Minor general WoT spoilers:

I wish that Wheel of Time spent a lot more time on the mysticism in its world. People being reincarnated, the aelfinn and eelfinn, etc etc.

It kind of just brushes off the fact that the books are post-apocalyptic. The show did a great job at showing ancient ruined bridges and fallen/overgrown skyscrapers. I wish that the books had leaned more into that. It's really cool.

Really enjoying it so far!!

Egwene these past 3 books has been a fucking great read, and I'm really enjoying where Rand's characterisation is going. Sanderson has done an amazing job continuing their arcs from where Jordan left it off.

Fucken love big dogs
