I love Ituralde, slightly A-teamish but better more realistic than most of the stuff in there *NM* Iceman Send a noteboard - 29/11/2010 03:15:03 PM
1. Matts letter.

I find this letter to be less than credible. Matt is not uneducated, nor is he a fool. I find it almost impossible to believ that a character with an inate understanding of tactics and strategy combined with the memories of hundreds of generals, would be so completely ignorant of how to spell, write and most of all the game of houses.

2. Elayne interrogating the black ajah.

Aside from the blatant disregard for tower law, how silly I found the whole premis; the appearance of this scene so far after the white tower is cleansed in tGS and also after an Egewne pov that features Elayne in which the tower has already been clensed makes this scene annoying, out of place and dificult to reconcile with the overall story.

3. Nynaeve healing the madness.

Seems a little to blaisé and off the cuff. Something that had stumped Aes Sedai for thousands of years healed in a moment of inspiration. I might be nit picking here, but when Nynaeve healed stilling it was after months of frustrating research with Logain

4. Perrins Magic hammer

5. Ituralde.

All of his scenes. I just don't rate him as a character. I just find him a kind of a redundant, second, Bashere. Coupled with his Ateam style "tactics" and the poorly written battle scenes he was really annoying.

I always imagined he'd have better spelling skills, though. - 29/11/2010 07:09:20 PM 1020 Views

That is what made me think Mat wrote the letter that way on purpose. - 30/11/2010 01:57:26 PM 1115 Views

My argument is probably not valid, but I'll give it anyway - 02/12/2010 05:13:58 PM 947 Views
