Nynaeve finally takes the test to become a full Aes Sedai. Her success depends on her skill (which is good) and her tact (which is not good). Also, Ituralde leads a fighting retreat which goes well until it doesn't. And Mat gets advice on being a legend from Birgitte, a literal legend.

Perrin starts to make progress with his wolfish nature, boding well for his state of mind. His state of body is less secure though, since his army has encountered Galad's army of white-clad jerks. Meanwhile Mat finds himself sharing a tent with a certain rubbery horror.

We finished Season 1 of the Wheel of Time TV Show! Our final review: could be better! The changes to the plot and characterization left us fuddled. Who is this show for? Not us, apparently.

After a surprisingly relevant prologue, Rand returns from his mountain retreat. He has used the time hanging out on his own funeral mound to get in touch with his inner selves. He meets with Egwene and the Aes Sedai and does a poor job of not freaking them out.

We progressed through the first half of Season 1 of the Wheel of Time TV show! We generally think that where they followed the books, things are looking good, and where they diverged, it's pretty rough. Look what they did to our boy Thom.

We watched episode 1 of the Wheel of Time TV show! The one starring Rosamund Pike, not the one starring Billy Zane. We talk about what we liked (a lot), and what we didn't like (also a lot).

After Cadsuane contrives a meeting between him and Tam, Rand spirals into mental instability. His plan to massacre the Seanchan goes off the rails (if genocide can be considered on the rails) and the only person who can talk Rand out of destroying the world is Lews Therin. Not our first choice.

Rand is not doing very well as he gives up on the omnishambles he's created in Arad Doman and goes to meet with that borderlander army that has been hanging around for a while. It goes poorly. Then Egwene finally launches the assault on Tar Valon and it goes extremely well.
