In the middle of the slog
2 étoiles
This was the first full WoT book I hadn't read before and as predicted, it was a slog. Nothing much happened. Perrin and Faile are always a huge miss for me. The only bits I was interested in were Egwene trying to control her rebel Aes Sedai, and the Seanchan. But seriously, you read hundreds of pages, for not much going on.
I have complained before that I feel Jordan did not understand the way female relationships work. This time, his focus on corporeal punishment for and from women, turned out to be unsettling for me. Women get spanked, hit with a switch, and so on and so forth. The book is from 1998, why was this considered okay then? I don't know. But I will see this series to its end.
