Perrin and Faile make it into this book, but only barely. Elayne, shortly after it is made clear she knows less about leadership than a village wisdom despite being raised a princess (probably unsurprising given the historical success of hereditary nobility as providers of the aristocracy), sets forth on her 7-book-long mission to demonstrate her firm grasp of the negative use of power while contributing absolutely nothing to the saving of the world most of the other “good” characters are busy with. The city of Ebou Dar, one of the richer cultures in the series, is introduced and featured heavily.īut not all is well with the world (of Wheel of Time characters). Rand’s journey is as dark, and as good, as it gets in The Wheel of Time. Rand’s slipping sanity continues to become a major theme. Nynaeve, Egwene, and Perrin, in limited action, all have Crowning Moments of Awesome. Lord of Chaos also marks the finest of the four acts that The Wheel of Time comprises. In my mind it falls just behind The Shadow Rising, but I think it’s the second book in the series (tentatively). It is considered by many fans of the series as the best of the lot. Lord of Chaos is book 6 of 14 in Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series. Caps the Finest of Four Acts in The Wheel of Time
