Re: I agree with all of that. Sidious Send a noteboard - 04/12/2009 03:33:03 PM
I liked this about her, though. True heroism is one of the reasons why I read fantasy, and Egwene being infallible is kind of endearing.

She wasn't just infallible, she was almost god-like.;) And, as I said, I did enjoy reading her parts. Very good, imo. Just slightly different from how the RJ characters have been presented in the past. I do think it helped that she frequently thought about how she could mess things up and needed not to do so. If we hadn't been in her PoV and she had still done the same actions, I'd probably have liked it less. Then she would have been god-like.:P


Agreed. It's probably why I like Egwene and the Forsaken - they're all legend and too icky and fun to read about. Realism is low down on my list when reading, I get enough from the part of the Pattern that I live in :P

If you plan to write that review before the last two books are out, you better get re-reading now. *NM* Insomdeon - 04/12/2009 03:20:31 PM 412 Views

Egwene had the best mix of teachers and a desire to learn. Most believable, IMO. *NM* fionwe1987 - 04/12/2009 10:17:56 PM 431 Views

I'm re-reading the series now for the first time in years. Egwene has always been a weak character. Master Radishes - 07/12/2009 01:12:15 AM 827 Views
