A bit of filler, like some of the chapter headings expanded. ( )

The Strike at Shayol Ghul is a very short “historical” writing which goes into some detail on events that took place long before this series began, and which are referred to often in the books. It’s written by a fictional historian who has analyzed and is attempting to summarize a fragmented historical document about the events surrounding the sealing of the Dark One and the Breaking of the World.

It wasn’t particularly exciting or riveting, but it was extremely short. It filled in a few more details beyond what has already been provided throughout the first six books, and it presents things in a more cohesive manner.

Worth reading for die hard WoT fans. ( )
