Re: but Sidious Send a noteboard - 04/12/2009 03:51:03 PM

For me, it's not so much that it was a small part, but that it seems unlikely. She's not someone who PRETENDS to be the most awesome ever, she actually is. The psychology of it doesn't work for me, but I could be wrong. Oh noes, don't spank me! You'll just prove that I've been right to call you mindless barbarians.:P I also think that spanking Caddy would get you an Unbreakable Grudge, not so much a crying Caddy. *shrugs* Or possibly a crying Caddy, but not one who will tell you anything she hadn't already planned to.


Semirhage was my second favourite Forsaken, so I know what you mean. The truth is that Cadsuane did get the better of this intelligent woman. It's like being captured by terrorists and you're an interrogator. You think they'll put your head in ice water, shock you, pull your finger nails and beat you up every day. You prepare yourself mentally and they take you to a cave, and put you in a room with thousands of barbies and pink wallpaper. You're shocked... you might cry.

I was surprised (and slightly underwhelmed) by Graendal's lack of screen-time, but I was impressed with Rand there. Bad balefire, but well, effective plan. *nods*


It was the way to deal with a Forsaken, I agree. Don't ever play their game. Rand has done it almost every time, and now it was his turn to set the terms.

The entire cast is full of Perfect Sues and Stuarts (I may have just made latter up) - 04/12/2009 03:14:27 PM 1008 Views
If you plan to write that review before the last two books are out, you better get re-reading now. *NM* - 04/12/2009 03:20:31 PM 429 Views

Egwene had the best mix of teachers and a desire to learn. Most believable, IMO. *NM* - 04/12/2009 10:17:56 PM 441 Views

I'm re-reading the series now for the first time in years. Egwene has always been a weak character. - 07/12/2009 01:12:15 AM 856 Views

I think you'll find few people who agree with you on both of those counts... - 07/12/2009 01:53:58 PM 872 Views
