Seems to me it has to be believed for storytelling reasons if nothing else. Legolas Send a noteboard - 31/10/2009 05:57:24 PM

But I wonder if Rand is sane, and how far his redemption can be believed. He really is insane I think - Verin herself thinks so and she's rather unobservant.


You can hardly end the book with a big "oh, I've seen the light now" scene and then act as if nothing's changed.

Other than that, seems to me that we see his PoV often enough to know that he's not in fact insane, apart from his rapidly growing paranoia, but that ought to be much better after Veins of Gold.
