I think my favorite thing about Mat is that even if he grumbles and complains about stuff internally he always ends up doing the right thing and is actually very dependable. I agree how this book feels like is has so much for energy the last one. You can truly start to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Yea same. This book really won me over for Tuon. It gave her a human face, not the face of the evil empire, and actually gives hope for the Seanchan. With Mat changing to a, how to say, moral compass (?) for her and the Empire, I could see time changing the Empire into something that more resembles what Hawking had.
So glad you enjoyed KoD. It’s a fan fav for all the reasons you list. The Golden Crane rides for Malkier is one of my fav moments in the whole series. RJ is a master at conveying emotions with his epic payoffs. The fact that we experience the scene through rando Malkieri turned Saldaean merchant is brilliant. The reader lives and breathes the giddiness, unashamed fall of tears, and awe that character experiences, and it sheds Nynaeve in a new light-one we can’t experience through her own self-critical POV or even from the perspective of one of her friends. The Queen of Malkier, one of the most powerful Aes Sedai, a woman who has captured the heart of Al’Lan Mandragoran is absolutely boss.
Mat and Perrin were both attacked by darkfriends that had been instructed by the forsaken to kill them after Moridin showed what they look like to the forsaken at their meeting in one of the first chapters.
I was glad to see Elayne finally get the throne. I think a good deal of the slog was Andor politics and I was glad to see it conclude. The conclusion was much better than the books long slog to get there.
just finished this book, and man watching egwene slowly plant seeds of doubt and other things within the tower to drag down elaida was the coolest shit ever
Absolutely agree with the question about Lews Therin and Rand being voices in each other's heads because the wheel of time turns and the third age is age gone and the age yet to come. And also as I remember there are few patterns, not only pattern of this Age. Kinda like parallel worlds. It makes the universe of the wheel of time super dope😊 And I respect you so much more for pointing it out. I've listened dozens of reviews and you're the only one who mentioned it.♥️♥️♥️
Hmm that’s so interesting about multiple patterns, I never considered that!! When I do my someday re-read, I feel like there is SO much more to pick up on ☺️
Crossroads was such a disappointment for me. I had low expectations going into Knife of Dreams and was blown away. Jordan managed such a return to form for his final solo entry.
@@GraceDionneReads lol I don't remember what it was either, but I've been watching these after every WOT book I finish and it took me until now to realize it

I completely agree with you, I love that about him!
Matt and Tuon were easily my favorite part of the book.
Yess they were so good! My favourite storyline too

Yeah that's true, there was a high volume of Andor politics!!

yes!!! she was amazing this book

Knife of Dreams really breathed new life into the series for me after I nearly dnf’d during the slog. You’re on the home stretch!
I completely agree!! And it's so encouraging to hear you say that too 😊
The Golden Crane flies for Tarmon Gaidon makes my eyes tear up whenever I think about it or hear someone talk about it. I can’t help myself. 😢❤
I completely agree!! 💜
First one I heard voicing the same thing I was actually wondering about Rand and Lewis Terrin. Just finished this book 29 December 2023
Yes everything with Rand and Lews Therin was very interesting to read!
I'm not going to watch this video because I still want to read The Wheel of Time so no spoilers for me but I gave your video a big thumbs up 👍
Thank you so much, I appreciate it! And I hope you enjoy the series 😄
Thank you for the review video!! Happy reading to you!! 🎥🦋🎬📝
Thank you!! You too 💜
Ah! Been a while, at least it feels it :D perfect watch to sit down with on my smoke breaks after finishing mistborn earlier :P
Hahah I am so glad you enjoyed 😄
@@GraceDionneReads its full speed ahead now the rest of the way!! Enjoy the ride
I’m not watching because when I get around to this I don’t want to know anything, but wanted you to know I was here. Saying “hi”!
Thank you, I appreciate that! 😄 I hope you enjoy the books up to this one in the meantime!
Glad you made it through the "slog" and are enjoying WoT again! Be well, stay safe!
Thank you!! I am certainly glad 😄
Crossroads was such a disappointment for me.
I had low expectations going into Knife of Dreams and was blown away. Jordan managed such a return to form for his final solo entry.
I completely agree!!
I wish he didn't have to nerf elaida so that egwene could bring her down.
Bruh are you canadian?
Haha it’s been so long since this video I don’t remember if I said something specific to make you think that, but yes I am Canadian ☺️
