The Shadow Rising Summary
Added 2025-07-01 13:00:19 +0000 UTCLet's talk about RJ's obsession with bodacious boobies and our party's journey into the waste in this radical breakdown of The Shadow Rising! Are you aware Elayne is really pretty? Cause Aviendha REALLY wants you to know that and might cut you if you don't. Thank you ALL so much for the feedback on the last 3. I've recorded up to 11 and Kayla is starting Fires of Heaven this week. Making this project is a dream come true!!!!!!! I GUESS I HAVE THE FORETELLING!!!!!
Put on some sunscreen for the desert and lets toss the dice!

2025-07-30 18:19:24 +0000 UTCI definitely got off track in the middle of this book, but these videos got me reinvested. I hope someday you make the same thing for COSMERE readers.

2025-07-26 20:57:56 +0000 UTCExplains why there were such poor assassins, both on screen and in the book! Stabbing a person so many times, and not hitting a vital organ? sheer incompetence

2025-07-24 06:01:01 +0000 UTCLoial is such a good friend to all 3 men. And he volunteered to close that waygate, Perrin didn't ask.

2025-07-24 05:58:24 +0000 UTCJust started my re-read of book 4. Bubbles of Evil has just taken place. Mat is telling Thom how he intends to leave Tear, but can't as Rand needs him. Your review will help me understand better what is taking place. Bless you for these reviews. Love the second white board , very clever.
Carol Briscoe
2025-07-24 05:57:17 +0000 UTCOn my last two reads I just skipped over Perrin and Faile in the Ways. Loial didn’t deserve any of that. Poor guy

2025-07-08 15:14:39 +0000 UTCoooh good questions Ill consider in the final edit when I see how much wiggle room I have
Daniel Greene
2025-07-08 15:12:50 +0000 UTClinks to the side material :)

2025-07-08 15:11:35 +0000 UTCThis format of book summaries are so fun to watch they could be its own channel. Love the edits. An hour and forty min and still not enough time to talk about rhuidean makes sense for WOT summary. Can hardly wait to watch the whole series. You should print out the thumbnail as a special edition cover for people's shelves.

2025-07-07 19:35:37 +0000 UTClol the Zoolander Rand couladin edit was *chef’s kiss
Blake Engholm
2025-07-07 15:55:23 +0000 UTCLove how you covered Elayne’s letters to Rand lol That poor boy was so rightly confused
Bekki Richards
2025-07-07 04:08:40 +0000 UTCYou kind of fucked up the aelfin/eelfin thing. First: snake(questions) second: foxes(wishes)

2025-07-04 09:49:34 +0000 UTC49:57 Don't know if it was intentionally said so by Daniel, but wanted to clarify just in case SPOILER Unfortunately, he doesn't. He and seanchan woman promise to do that, but they fail for some reason (we discover it later).
Ejder
2025-07-04 07:33:47 +0000 UTCLove the Grey man explanation.

2025-07-04 01:44:58 +0000 UTCOne of my absolute favorite parts of the whole series revolves around Rhuidean, and you were correct that it was too big to put in this particular video. So when the whole thing is assembled presumably we will have links to the “side material” as you did here? Or could there be interstitial mini episodes? Etc.
Allan Meyer
2025-07-03 14:49:11 +0000 UTCWhen Perrin was talking to Birgitte, and Hopper says "you were talking to the air," I've usually assumed that Hopper actually could see her, but he knows that mortals aren't supposed to interact with the heroes (and vice versa) so he was just like "nope, I didn't see anything, what do you mean Birgitte was breaking the rules?"

2025-07-02 18:43:35 +0000 UTCEditing Kayla: Thank you for catching that!! Bisous ~x

2025-07-02 15:07:20 +0000 UTCat 1:05:52 we missed a "We'll talk about that later" !!!

2025-07-02 14:31:02 +0000 UTCThese are the best. I might pick the books back up again from where I got up to 7 or 8 I think? There's just soooo much to take in when reading it, it's the only book series where I let it slide that I'm reading something and having no idea what they're referring to or who a person is they mention - I just let it go and let 50% slide past me. So these videos are just beyond epic, you have no idea. My main hesitation in picking it back up again is, although it's an epic story and series, it's SO depressing and I just can't handle the painful position most people are in constantly. I feel Rand's pain as everyone's trying to manipulate him and he has such a heavy mission to carry... and it's just too much. I can't do more heaviness in my life 😅
Alex Harvey
2025-07-02 13:03:51 +0000 UTCIf this is all going to be one marathon video, should there be callbacks to the other books? Are you going to cover the Prologues as separate? As I recall they start getting ornate around now
Phil Parkman
2025-07-02 05:56:31 +0000 UTCAnd one more mix up at 1:05:48… he takes the medallion as a joke from the fox* people.
Jarrett Lee
2025-07-02 01:57:50 +0000 UTCDaniel at 59:27 you mixed up Matt’s reaction.. “walks in and it’s not fox people, it’s snake people”… as Willy Wonka would say “strike that, reverse it”… also you go on to mixup what they grant right after that….then your post edit cut with show footage corrects who is who

Jarrett Lee
2025-07-02 00:48:50 +0000 UTCLords in every land seem to forget that Rand did not grow up like them, he grew up a farmer, and they looooove to shit on farmers and peasants which just angers Rand cause…that’s him and all his friends. But the High Lords just can’t comprehend that, it’s a very well done thing by Jordan, love that you included it 😊 Perfect description of Couladin XD You can really tell this is one of your favourite WoT books, and your passion overall for this project is fantastic to see! The Finn were the other way around, it was the snakes (Aelfinn) in Tear and the foxes (Eelfinn) in Rhuidean. He doesn’t go to the pedlars for the bracelet, he goes to the maidens to ask them for something for Aviendha, and they all get super excited. You accidentally called Rand’s fat man angreal a ter’angreal 😊 Auxiliary whiteboard to the rescue! No defence to the idiot Congars and Coplins, but the Tinkers didn’t have their wagons at that point, they were just on foot so just looked like shapes moving around. Still very clearly human and not trolloc though, stupid Coplins. I overall really liked how you went through each storyline in its entirety, rather than cutting around like the book. The shifting format works in the book, but for summary purposes your method is much easier for people to follow. Can't wait for book 5!

2025-07-01 13:22:35 +0000 UTCSo grateful for these videos! I’m trying to resume book 5 after a year away and oof. I forgot so much. But I didn’t forget that Faile is still with us. Sigh. I can’t stand her lol.
