Yup! I can't tell you how amazed I was when you made that prediction. You can see my reaction if you go back a couple pages and look at my spoiler reaction to your prediction.

Yeah. Needless to say, I was stunned at that prediction. When you're done with Book 11, you'll have to make some more predictions!
A great humor piece from Wotmania that I just found: http://www.wotmania.com/wotmessagebo...essageID=13975

Just remember...if you do join wotmania, you'll have spoilers flying around left and right, including a very blatant KoD spoiler...

Thank you Lief
I got another one now: Based on the fact the Mat thinks she is the most beautiful woman he has ever met (sound familier?), I think Halima is really Lanfear. Now to figure out who the other one is?

In theory, you should be able to identify Halima once she tells Delana her real name, but that assumes you figured out who the two were back in the LoC Prologue, which is no easy task. But more hints do crop up as you read on.

I finally remembered exactly who Halima was...there's a gigantic hint in the method that she aided the escape, if my memory serves me correctly...

I just finished LoC. Now I'm not so sure who Halima is. But I do know

George Martin is good, but then you'll be waiting on more books.
Zelanzy's Amber series is real good, but a pretty quick read. I enjoyed David Eddings Belgariad stuff as well, though it's a bit on the lite-fantasy side.

BTW, what is the consensus on the prophecy that Mat got from the Eelfinn (or was it the Aelfinn?): "To die and live again..." Was it fulfilled in Rhuidean? There's just part of me that doesn't really think so...and of course, it might have also referred to that little ending on FoH.
