Fantasy Er was wat minder sprake van herhalingen, maar de hoeveelheid personages en plotlijnen zijn me iets teveel geworden in dit boek. Op een gegeven moment haalde ik Cairhien en Caemlin steeds door elkaar en begreep ik niet altijd meteen wie wie was. En toch spreekt de wereld en het verhaal op zich me nog steeds aan. Ik krijg nu pas wat meer sympathie voor Rand, omdat zijn strubbelingen nu bij mij meer echt overkomen. Maar ik wil weten hoe het met Matt is en hoe het met Faille afloopt. Dus ga ik meteen door met boek 9. Dat is ook meteen het laatste boek dat ik herlees, want daarna ben ik toendertijd gestopt. Dus vanaf boek 10 is het verhaal echt nieuw voor mij. Again somewhat of a slow story, to reiterate, with however-many volumes there are in the series I am sure that there will be a few titles that are more story building than story telling, and this was full of story building...Kate and Michael were exquisite as always. Damn they are good at what they do. This book took me a little longer to finish even if it's a bit shorter than the previous ones. Parts of it really dragged as there's more setup than action here. As always, I love the Rand and Perrin chapters though I miss Mat. The rest were just okay. I noticed that I'm starting to skim some of the repetitive description, but I can only take so much and I don't think I'm missing much. On to Winter's Heart.

HTML:For millions of fans around the globe, the wait is over. Sequel to the international blockbuster bestseller A Crown of Swords, The Path of Daggers continues one of history's greatest fictional journeys and the most extraordinary work of American fantasy ever published—The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and worldwide bestselling series—Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time. The phenomenal tale that is mesmerizing a generation of readers now continues in Book Eight. The Seanchan invasion force is in possession of Ebou Dar. Nynaeve, Elayne, and Aviendha head for Caemlyn and Elayne's rightful throne, but on the way they discover an enemy much worse than the Seanchan. In Illian, Rand vows to throw the Seanchan back as he did once before. But signs of madness are appearing among the Asha'man. In Ghealdan, Perrin faces the intrigues of Whitecloaks, Seanchan invaders, the scattered Shaido Aiel, and the Prophet himself. Perrin's beloved wife, Faile, may pay with her life, and Perrin himself may have to destroy his soul to save her. Meanwhile the rebel Aes Sedai under their young Amyrlin, Egwene al'Vere, face an army that intends to keep them away from the White Tower. But Egwene is determined to unseat the usurper Elaida and reunite the Aes Sedai. She does not yet understand the price that others—and she herself—will pay. No library descriptions found.
