Reaffirming their love for Rand? Matt is like "you're different now bro. Thanks for the help but I got to get the F away from you" and Perrin is like "Idk how I feel. I need to think about this....way over there"

The way I see the battle at the end: The seanchaen are on one side, reeling from the death of their Lord and Egwayne's rage mode channeling The white cloaks are marching into the town on the other side Feeling like He's in between a rock and a hard place, Mat thinks, "Fuck It!" And Blows the Horn.... And one of the coolest battle scenes written occurs

This was a relatively accurrate summary for Daniel Greene. Very short list of mistakes: - Lan does not tell Rand about Sheathing the Sword after their sparring session, he tells him right before Rand leaves Fal Dara. - Fain does not tell Rand that he will make him join the Dark One, for the simple fact that Fain is no longer on the Dark One’s team! He simply tells Rand that the Shadow’s minions are coming for both of them, although Rand doesn’t know what he means, and thinks he is referring to the Aes Sedai. - Verin is not a member of the party that sets out for the Horn. She joins it along the way, after Rand, Hurin & Loial have left the group. She is also NOT an Aes Sedai we’ve never met before. We see her with Moiraine & the Amyrlin before Rand is summoned to the audience, and she is there while the Amyrlin tells Rand that he’s the Dragon Reborn. In fact, she subtly helps Rand during the meeting by diverting the attention of the other Aes Sedai and giving him space to get his bearings. - Mat does not reaffirm his love for Rand, he only understands Rand’s behavior when Rand explicitly tells him he was being a dick to keep them safe. Mat thought it was a symptom of madness. Perrin is a little more understanding, given his perspective from the wolf stuff, but both of them make a point of avoiding him. That’s why Rand sleeps near the Portal Stone, because his friends don’t want him around. - This is a nitpick, but in the Portal Stone world, the Trollocs did not win the Trolloc Wars, they defeated Artur Hawkwing, who lived 1000 years after the Trolloc Wars. - Rand has been having dreams featuring Ba’alzamon since early in the prior book, and knows they are real and not a dream. - Rand’s response is not “for some reason” it is for the explicit purpose of not taking a side and making enemies of all the rivals of whoever’s invitation he accepts. He burns the invitations publically, so that people know he is not accepting them secretly. - Perrin is told by the wolves that something called “Shadowkiller” killed a bunch of Trollocs. He has no idea it’s Rand and he & Ingtar worry that it might be something WORSE than Trollocs. It’s not until they are catching up with Rand that Perrin realizes Rand is Shadowkiller. - Min does not escape the Seanchan. She is taken captive and kept as a hostage to make Egwene behave. - Verin does not come up to Rand and tell him she knows he can channel. Rand already knows she knows, because she was there when he discussed channeling with the Amyrlin. - No Borderlander soldiers sneak into the city. Just Ingtar. - Rand was stabbed in the side. As the picture in the video clearly shows. - The Whitecloaks do not push the Seanchan out, they are massacred right before the Heroes join the battle. - Min does not tell Rand she loves him, because she really doesn’t yet. She mostly expresses frustration at the fact that she’s stuck knowing it’s going to happen.

I like these summaries. I’ve read this book about 5 times, starting in 1998 the first time. Thus summary is mostly right but there are errors. Biggest example is the whitecloaks were actually destroyed by the Heroes of the Horn, who then defeated the Seanchan after a back and forth battle that mimicked the battle between Rand and Ishamael in the sky. When Ishamael gained ground, the Seanchan did as well, and when Rand killed Ishmael, the Heroes of the Horn defeated the Seanchan. But you left out the best part of all- Artur Hawking led the Heroes of the Horn and called Rand by the name Lews Therin, who was the original Dragon, confirming for certain that Rand was indeed the Dragon Reborn.

I hate the Seanchen. Robert Jordan studied war tactics and could have made them a lasting threat throughout the books. Instead they are a bunch of overconfident idiots that are constantly infighting . Jordan could have been more subtile . We would already hate them because of the way they treat people , especially women. The fight in the sky was wasted. I loved the early books but felt they were designed like video games with Rand fighting "the boss." I hope this is handled differently in the series . The ultimate bad guy Forsaken wetr given too many chances too early to wipe out the boys. Ismael's "serve me" strategy was stupid. The boys would have been better served by narrowly escaping direct confrontation until ready to face it. Hopefully the Amazon series will cut down the number of forsaken and make them a true menace to be feared . Finally Lanfear would have been more a great on the fence Forsaken if she had more motivation other than : "you are mine Lew Theron."

I'm reading this series for the first time. Anyone know why Rand is freaking out about this? serpent curled almost into a circle, but a serpent with four legs and a lion’s golden mane, scaled in crimson and gold, its feet each tipped with five golden claws. From chapter two. Does it represent 'The Dragon Reborn'? I'm in chapter 9 now and i still don't know the meaning. Or why Moiraine would want to advertise that Rand is the 'Dragon Reborn' if that is the case.

Just for the sake of pedantry I thought I would point out that the Amyrlin Seat doesn't bring the Horn of Valere or the seal to the Dark One's prison with her to Shienar, Moiraine finds them at the Eye of the World at the end of the previous book. Also Verin doesn't initially set off with Rand et al after the Horn and the dagger, she catches up to them later on. Oh, and Min gets caught with Egwene by the Seanchan when Liandrin betrays them but since she can't channel she's not made into a magic slave. I've probably spelt some of the made up fantasy names wrong and come off as a total hypocrite with this comment haha. And since I remeber all these trivial details I guess it means this video totally succeeded in jogging my memory, so cheers :D

They were found by Moiraine and CO. in the first book, inside the Eye of the World.

I read it and it made sense, but i guess when you look at it as a whole, the book seems pretty confusing.

i liked the book, when you read it you don't realize how weird and over the top it, unless you try to summarize it like Daniel did here.

Didn't Lanfear appear in the end when Rand was healing?...was that Selene all along? I kinda didn't get. I'm trying to see how Selene was important to the story. Maybe Selene (and the return of Thom) will make sense in later books?

Thanks a lot for the incredible reviews @Daniel Greene, I’ve been following you for a while now and you got me into the WoT series :) One question to you, any reason why you don’t mention the apperance of Lanfear to Min at the end of the book? I’m only at book 3 but figured this was an important development :)

I know that it's 3 years too late, but Rand isn't the 'Next Dragon Reborn', he is 'The Dragon Reborn' and all other claimants to the title were 'False Dragons'.

Just wanted to let you know I appreciate what you are doing and we have similar taste in fantasy fiction so I pretty much have read or will be reading everything you recommended. Starting WOT late, so just started this 2nd book and I can imagine that Verin will be my favorite (unless she gets kill off in the near future. I hope not.)

Thanks for posting these. I'm re-reading the series before the show comes out and when I get done I've always missed something and you help me remember. When I got done with the Great Hunt I couldn't remember what happened to Matt at the end and why he wasn't there. I forgot who went to the White Tower with the others, so thanks.
