Tbh I liked Nynaeve, Egwene (?) and desert lady (ae something?) arcs more.
Rand stuff maybe dragged a wee bit much plus harem stuff is kinda cringe
Edit: also also penultimate and one of the 8-9 book can be removed completely, outside of “aes sedai it” phrase, but I guess poor Sanderson didn’t know why it has to happen.
Oh I liked all the main character arcs so far(Book 11). I'd be hard pressed to choose one which i liked the most.
spoiler
Mat dealing with his sense of responsibilty, Perrin coming to terms with his dark side, Nynaeve overcoming her need for anger as a way to cope with increasing challenges. Egwene.....well if I had to say which character arc pleased me the most it would be hers. She has grown into her role as Amyrlin so well. Not only that but she presents a nice contrast to Rand in leadership and how she navigates challenges whereas Rand just bulldozes through them:::
About removing books from the 'slog' I feel ya but I've come to adore the series so much that any excuse to stay a bit longer in Randland is good enough for me, no matter how slow it is.
Ps. Yeah the the harem thing was cringe. Jordan should've just made Aviendha and Elayne a pair instead of the harem stuff. The subtext is definetly there for that.
