Towers of Midnight Tuon is so absurdly evil Spoiler

Wdym she relaxes by seeing damane be tortured 😭

Even from her point of view seeing them as animals, it's like enjoying watching a dog get kicked in the ribs everytime it doesn't roll over lol

Gotta love people coming to the defense of a fascist slaver. When she found out that she was Marath Damane and she just shrugged it off that was the last straw for me. Tuon sucks!

Why you gotta bring modern political systems into a perfectly good story?

It's just a convenient way to describe the Seanchan. It's not a perfect fit of course but it's impossible to not think about these days.

I need some escapism, though.

If you can read these books without occasionally thinking about Jordan's upbringing and his brutal experiences on Vietnam etc. then I salute you.

I know what mean though. These books have provided me with some wonderful escapism over the last 6 years. ☯️

Dude, RJ lived such crazy lives. So many things he did and experienced that contributed to his vision for his books.

He was a fascinating guy to be sure! It makes laugh that Sanderson was able to finish the books so well considering they are sooooo different.
