Book Ten, Part One: Prologue to the End of Chapter 15 | Crossroads of Twilight by Robert Jordan
Manage episode 431770218 series 3520811
Welcome to the tenth book of the Wheel of Time series! We check in with all our characters to see what they were up to during the final events of book nine. Characters get dressed, shoot down viable rescue stratagies and attempt to calculate the consequences of their actions. The Queens lament over the romance between characters that are not together and question the political implications of the bank. Marissa is still upset about the weather conditions, Tay sparks a debate on succession and Alix gives us a lesson on praying mantis care. So saddle up and enjoy the Prologue to the end of Chapter 15 of Book Ten of The Wheel of Time, Crossroads of Twilight by Robert Jordan.
In the game segment of this episode, the Queens give the Wheel of Time books alternate titles and finish off with a shorter-than-usual list of characters in their character rankings.
