So I read on-line that the recent anthology Unfettered has a short story about the Sharans (written by Sanderson) that was a collection of deleted scenes from this book. Once we finish with this novel, I plan to dive in to it!<br /><br />Gawyn does seem to be setting himself up for Twit Hero status. Nynaeve will probably have some serious healing to do!<br /><br />And the showdown between Egwene and Tuon was very satisfying. Tuon and her court may have been scandilized by Egwene's 'rudeness' but I expect Tuon will have to learn with others challenging her if she plans to continue to cohabitate in Randland. <br /><br />I too giggled at Perrin's simple solution to the Red Aiel. If only it was that simple in real life.....<br /><br />I think you are right about Nynaeve - she now understands why Moiraine did the things she did and see why they were necessary in the moment. Hurray for hindsight!<br />nrlymrtlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00572346310916207565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936635192759786622.post-869056662101876702015-02-18T10:12:16.605-05:002015-02-18T10:12:16.605-05:00Yeah, the Sharans seem a lot like the Seanchan in...Yeah, the Sharans seem a lot like the Seanchan in many ways, but their opposites in others. Where the Seanchan treat their female channelers like animals, the Sharans seem to do this to their male channelers. I loved the "You are an idiot--Dribble" thing too. So great! LOL. And I totally can't get enough of the Ogiers in battle. I could read full books about just that. Love Loial! :D <a href="http://musingsonfantasia.blogspot.com/2015/02/a-memory-of-light-read-along-week-5.html" rel="nofollow">My WoT Post</a>Liesel K.
