juliareadsbooks 's review for:
The Shadow Rising
by Robert Jordan
just like with the 3 books before, some the book partly had some lengths but mostly i enjoyed it. i listend to most of it as audiobook while knitting idk why but that was such a good combination? but back to the book: i liked the storyline with nyneave and elayne hunting the black ajah the most, but all the insights into aiel culture were also super interesting. and (major spoiler!) i loved the twist that aiel also used to follow the “way of the leaf”, i can’t wait what happens next in that plot and if they will meet the traveling people soon.
also what i think is interesting: i read reviews of the book which said that the beginning was great and after 200 pages they thought it was boring. i thought it was the opposite tbh? the second that everyone left from Tear i got rlly invested in the different plots again and i was looking forward to reading every evening.
character wise i think i liked all characters a lot more in the book? moiraine was a lot more human, mat should use his brain more but he is finally no longer running away, rand should trust others more but tbh if i were in the same situation i also wouldn’t do that, perrin will be a major leader in the books to come i think…
