I agree with most of your post but I have a nitpick Icarium Send a noteboard - 06/11/2009 02:08:31 AM
I suppose RJ could've done it more subtly, and one might point out that if RJ/Sanderson had taken the time to do it more subtly and more believably, we would've been looking at several slow-moving books more before Egwene finally got where she needed to be.


I think Egwene being accepted as an Amyrlin by all AS was always going to require them taking massive doses of stupid pills. Let's not forget the scene in TPOD where no Sitter bothered to remember or check that if they declared war on Elaida they would be turning Egwene into a temporary all-powerful dictator. Or the way they dismiss Siuan just because she is not very powerful with the OP now - as if that automatically makes her a moron!

I lurves her. She am pretty, smart, courageous, independent, the whole package. Bookwyrm - 30/10/2009 03:28:07 PM 834 Views
Pretty! An absolute MUST for a good character in a pictureless book series! Cannoli - 31/10/2009 05:09:13 AM 908 Views
It's obvious you're petty and shallow. Who said anything about PHYSICAL beauty? Bookwyrm - 31/10/2009 09:09:52 PM 884 Views
That *is* the most obvious interpretation of the word "pretty"... Legolas - 31/10/2009 09:44:38 PM 957 Views
As expected, Cannoli is nothing but obvious. He has no depth, just cheese. XD *NM* Bookwyrm - 31/10/2009 09:54:11 PM 419 Views
She is the whole package Sidious - 31/10/2009 05:29:57 AM 864 Views
Agreed! Screw you Conalli... whatever your name is *NM* Nargs - 30/10/2009 04:05:39 PM 508 Views
She's coming off a bit Mary Sue-like, IMO beetnemesis - 30/10/2009 06:48:59 PM 1185 Views

Good job, yes. Worthy goal - not really. Still an arrogant Tower-loving carppy friend, absolutely Cannoli - 31/10/2009 10:33:28 PM 1028 Views

It was all very impressive, yes. Unfortunately, it was *too* impressive and that makes it hollow. Legolas - 31/10/2009 06:16:03 PM 896 Views

While I do prefer Mary Sue Egwene to Idiot!Egwene (Books 1-11), I'd much rather have Human!Egwene Icarium - 03/11/2009 03:22:25 PM 1625 Views
