I'm starting to feel bad for Rand, the last bit about all of the threads attached to him was rough.

I'm really enjoying this series and think the female characters are written really well but not every woman Rand meets needs to fall in love with him. Please Rob, no more.

Even better than the first book! I really enjoyed the unfolding of plot elements and introduction of some new and (I'm sure) very important characters. I just don't see how this can keep going for 13 more book?!? But I guess I will find out!

Torn between 4 and 5 stars but it gets 5 in the end because I feel like this book really picked up the pace! And the ending?! Everything seemed to be happening at once! The stakes have definitely been raised, so I’m excited to read The Dragon Reborn.

I was still hesitant on this much of the way through. The language isn't quite as impressive or evocative as I might hope, the characters just a *liiiiiittle* off, and the dialogue especially just a bit stilted... I was enjoying it a bit more than the previous book, especially in that we get a widening of the world, and more consistent perspectives, but it wasn't anything super special

and then we had the finale and uh yeah that ruled.
