In this plot-packed section, Jenn and Preeti get to talk about Mat, the Amazing Race/National Treasure situation in Ebou Dar, and newly-arrived characters -- some familiar, some ... unclear.

A Crown of Swords: Chapters 10-12

A Crown of Swords: Chapters 3-9

In which Preeti and Jenn tackle the massive Prologue full of absurd villains, two entire Perrin POV chapters, and some very concerning developments. <a href="https://www.tor.com/2022/10/04/reading-the-wheel-of-time-answers-and-questions-in-robert-jordans-lord-of-chaos-part-33/ " rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sylas K.

The Lord of Chaos: Chapters 49-53

In this section that had both plot AND character development, Jenn and Preeti had a lot to love and (as usual), some things to hate.
