It's all sort of complicated, but it just happened. Nothing to do with ta'veren - Perrin.

“The Way of the Leaf was a fine belief, like a dream of peace, but like the dream it could not last where there was violence.” — Robert Jordan, ‘The Shadow Rising’

#TheWheelofTime Nynaeve is so annoying... 🙄🙄🙄 #TheShadowRising

#TheWheelOfTime #TheShadowRising

I just got to the introduction of Keille Shaogi, and I've always thought her name was pronounced like "Kylie" but Rosamund is pronouncing it like "Kayla" and my brain is cramping

June reading. No long weekends, and one very long book.

I have finished #TheShadowRising. Honestly, a really great jumping back in point to the series. I was worried I wouldn’t remember the characters well enough to grok the story but you get halfway through any POV chapter and it’s like “oh yeah I get this person”. Absolutely loved it.

I’m currently about halfway through #TheShadowRising after a pretty big break from #WheelofTime. I’m really loving it so far, Perrin is becoming one of my all time favorite fictional characters. Not a big fan of how the women are written at this point tho.

During the book bubble of evil in Tear Perrin thinks “He’d die if the ax, his axe! Harmed her” of Faile.

this as reflected in the show and his wife is gut wrenching 😭😭

Can’t wait to see one of the best sequences in the books! #TheShadowRising. #WoTSkies #TheWheelofTime

'Whatever men do fully clothed, women need to do naked and in a rush, preferably running. And women will be blamed for everything that happens.' -Robert Jordan creating the 'matriarchal' world of The Wheel Of Time

(I am having a hard time with the books, yes. Counting on Rafe here) #TheShadowRising

Mierin Eronaile, The Daughter of the Night, wore thigh-high lace-up boots on the day she was to break the world. #WoTSkies #TheShadowRising

Thrilled to be a #TheWheelofTime fan. 3x1 is a rocket launcher of an episode and has me so hyped for the rest of season 3. 😍 all the quiet little character moments w/in the action. I read #TheShadowRising back in the 1990s-couldn't imagine then seeing this dramatized and so beautifully. #WoTSkies

#wotskies why is this the first time Leyla has been noticed by me in TSR? Hmm… must be my #rewotch fresh in my mind… #audiobook #rosamundpike #thewheeloftime #theshadowrising

Just finished re-reading the Battle of Two Rivers 😭😭😭

My partner is now unable to fall asleep with out my audiobook of #WoT playing 😂 sorry darling, I didn’t mean to condition you this way but I’m also not mad about it lol #theshadowrising #chapter37

Where will I be at the start of 2025 you (didn’t) ask? In a tub filled with bubbles, a glass of champagne and The Shadow Rising #WoT echoing off of my bathrooms walls.

Here’s to surviving another year of adulthood because books make life better 🥂🍾

3 split images of Moraine from the S3 teaser trailer. The top and bottom image are her freezing and spinning in a foggy darkness. In the middle, Moraine is focused on the White Tower from the streets of Tar Valon.

3 split images of Rand and Moraine in the Aiel Waste. Top: Rand and Moiraine share a glance as they speak with the Aiel Wise Ones. Middle: The mist-laden city of Rhuidean stretches out before Rand, Moiraine, and a group of Aiel warriors and Wise Ones. Bottom: Rand carries a battered Moiraine out of Rhuidean.

3 split images of Rand from the S3 teaser trailer. Top and bottom: Two shots of Rand in the mists of Rhuidean, looking determined and then screaming to the skies. Middle: A flashback of Rand seeing the past through his ancestors eyes, or perhaps a vision of him in Lanfear’s Tel’aran’rhiod (like in S2).

3 split images of Moraine from the S3 teaser trailer. Top: Moiraine standing in the Waste with the sun blazing behind them. Middle: Moiraine lying on the ground with her hand tucked under her head and her eyes open. Bottom: Moiraine picking up one of two incredibly powerful “access keys” for women and men, channeling saidar into it.

The Dragon and the Dragon Seeker venture into the Three-fold Land of the Aiel. 🏜️🥷

*️⃣ #EyeOfTheWorld is the Lord of the Rings of the WoT series, and #TheShadowRising is the Dune—change my mind.

I think part of my issue with Faile is that Jordan paired her with Perrin. If her interactions were with Matrim, she would be funny. It's more that Perrin does not deserve the abuse, I'm not saying he takes it, but he also rarely dishes it back. #wheeloftime 💙📖 #booksky #wot #theshadowrising

Same, Mat. Same. #readingnight #wot #wheeoftime #theshadowrising

OMG! Lan Mandragoran! My poor heart. 🩵📚 #wot #wheeloftime #theshadowrising

Drawing of Lan Mandragoran, an Asian man with long hair pulled back by a cord, and Moiraine Damodred, a white woman with long wavy hair in disarray, against a desertic backdrop. Jagged mountains are shrouded in shadows as the sun sets over a valley unnaturally filled with fog. From the thick, low-hanging clouds, spires and domes from a city emerge, with a gigantic tree at its center. Back against the sun, Lan is carrying away Moiraine in his arms, cheek pressed against her forehead. She is gripping his long cloak and holding touching his hand at her side. Her dark trousers and white blouse are dirty with dust, her sleeve slashed across the upper arm. Her cheeks are sunburnt.

"Do not let Lan follow me. He will try, if he sees me."

Spoilers for The Shadow Rising

One of my favourite scenes of the book, if only because the foreshadowing is absolutely soul-shattering

#Wotskies

Drawing of Siuan Sanche, a black woman with curly hair pulled back, and Leane Sharif, an Asian-Korean woman with long straight hair worn loose. Dressed is simple shifts, they are sitting in a cell barely lit by cold light coming from a window with bars. Thin straw mattresses and a jar furnish the cell. Siuan is recoiling before the bright light cast by an open door, gaze defiant, arm stretched toward Leane. Leane is grasping at Siuan's arm, stunned. A silhouette cuts the bright rectangle drawn by the door frame.

"We can fight, Leane. As long as we are alive, we can fight."

I am still howling about this chapter

I've been making my way through my reread of the Wheel of Time and The Shadow Rising is one of my favorites. So fun seeing how everything that happens in this book connects to the story as a whole. This book is the one that hooked me on my first read. #TheWheelofTime #TheShadowRising
