Rand must escape his captivity from the Amyrlin Seat. So he asks Lanfear for help. She helps by blowing up Cairhien. Then Rand, Moiraine, Lan, and Lanfear all team up to go to Falme. Oh yeah, and Moiraine wasn't really stilled, just shielded, and Rand fixes that.

Egwene, Nynaeve, and Elayne get familiar with the Seanchan, which is unpleasant. Rand hangs out in Cairhien with Moiraine's family, which is awkward. Mat discovers that Min is working for Ishamael, which is nonsensical.

We spend a lot of time watching Moiraine and Verin, neither of whom does much worth mentioning. So forget that sentence. Perrin meets Aviendha, who is pretty cool. Also Nynaeve and Elayne evade the Seanchan, but Egwene does not.

The party of mostly-Emond's-Fielders finally reaches the titular Eye of the World. They meet a very nice and very green man, then they meet a couple of very not-nice Forsaken. Then it's finally time for Rand and Ba'alzamon to settle their theological debate (with swords).

With time growing short, the party turns to the Ways to reach the Eye of the World in time. The Ways are quite nice, if you like pitch blackness and gibbering madness creatures hounding you to death. They do make it to Fal Dara, where they find out just exactly who this Lan guy is.

Moiraine and Lan (and Nynaeve!) rescue Perrin and Egwene from the Whitecloaks. Rand draws the attention of a princess, a prince, a queen, an Aes Sedai, a general, a soldier, and a beggar. That's how Two Rivers folk lie low.

Rand and Mat hitchhike to Caemlyn, and are accosted by darkfriends at almost every stop. It's enough to make a man suspicious. They do make it to Caemlyn, where Thom's name opens some doors for them (and slams shut others).

Perrin and Egwene are chased by some bad birds, and find refuge in a stedding. Their rest doesn't last long, as some Children of the Light arrive and inspire Perrin to turn some white cloaks red. Then Rand and Mat walk themselves into a trap and only escape via some lucky lightning.

Egwene's incredible sacrifice inspires Rand. Mat's battle strategy pays off after the forces of Light get a little lucky. It helps that a loophole in the rules lets Olver summon the Heroes of Legend to help. The Dark One is running out of Forsaken after Aviendha, Lan, Talmanes (!), and Egwene have trimmed their head count a bit.

In the Battle, Mat's counterstrike depends on Fortuona deciding to come to the rescue. They could really use that Horn but it seems like it's about to be eaten by Trollocs. Egwene isn't waiting around, though; she decides it's time to clean up this "M'Hael"/Balefire problem for good. Lan draws the curtains on the Demandred show.

Things on the battlefield don't get worse. In fact they get slightly better, as Hessalam's devious manipulation is revealed by Perrin (of all people). But after all this worse-getting, it's pretty dire. It's time for Mat to round up the troops for one last stand.
