Wow. I must say, I'm really enjoying these last books. The whole convoluted story lines are finally coming together and resolving. Unanswered questions are being answered.
Perrin spends this book making peace with his wolf side. He learns how to control it and not allow it to control him. He takes leadership of an entire army and accepts that this is who he is becoming.
Mat and Thom plan to save Moiraine, who hasn't been seen for several books. She was assumed dead, but the discovery of where she is and what has happened to her is interesting.
Elayne is dealing with her pregnancy (twins from Rand) as well as she can be. Her radical mood swings are finally settling and now she's just having to deal with her family's reaction to not only the pregnancy, but the father.
Aviendha learns something very troubling about her future line (also, it was probably the hardest two chapters of the book for me to read).
Egwene is finally fully Amyrlin of the White Tower. But, she's trying to discover a Forsaken in her midst which causes a whole bunch of issues for her. She also has to deal with some difficulty from Gawyn, who she loves and who loves her.
Rand, oh Rand. He has probably the biggest change in this book. He connects with Lews Therin and fully becomes who he is meant to be. He embraces his past self and becomes the Dragon. Not just the Dragon Reborn, but the Dragon himself. But he angers many people by proclaiming that he will break the remaining seals on the Dark One's prison (which I agree with him on).
I so loved this book. And I'm really excited to get to start reading the finally book in this series. Although, I am also sort of sad that it's almost over.
