Publisher's summary

Now an original series starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine!

Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time® by Robert Jordan has captivated millions of readers and listeners around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters.

The Wheel of Time turns and Ages come and go, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth returns again. In the Third Age, an Age of Prophecy, the World and Time themselves hang in the balance. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.

The seals of Shayol Ghul are weak now, and the Dark One reaches out. The Shadow is rising to cover humankind.

In Tar Valon, Min sees portents of hideous doom. Will the White Tower itself be broken?

In the Two Rivers, the Whitecloaks ride in pursuit of a man with golden eyes, and in pursuit of the Dragon Reborn.

In Cantorin, among the Sea Folk, High Lady Suroth plans the return of the Seanchan armies to the mainland.

In the Stone of Tear, the Lord Dragon considers his next move. It will be something no one expects, not the Black Ajah, not Tairen nobles, not Aes Sedai, not Egwene or Elayne or Nynaeve.

Against the Shadow rising stands the Dragon Reborn....

Fantastic!

Brandon Sanderson. You did a great job finishing! (Except for Matt you completely ruined his character)
Great job in all other aspects of the story.

Do fall in love with the characters

Where does A Memory of Light rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It wasn't my favorite, but the series finally ended.

Would you be willing to try another book from Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson ? Why or why not?

Great story line, keeps you interested.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Great adventure, love, loss, and victory and more.

Any additional comments?

Book 14 should be revised it was rushed and really bad. the only issue in these booksis that there are too many books, plus how the series end, no body wants a ending like book 14. It was rushed really not finished well. To fall in love with the characters and root for them to end like it did wasn't right. Brought in things in the books or stories line ready should have been cut.

The final book! The Best. Well worth the wait!!!!!

If you're considering this book, you've already ready the first 13. What are you waiting for? Buy it now!

Amazing book!!

I am amazed at the storyline of this book. Brandon Sanderson did a wonderful job finishing this series.

Second time through

This is my second time finishing this series, and again, I loved it! I would certainly recommend that anyone who is willing to commit to a lengthy story and be involved with character development should read it. This will not be the last time I listen to it either. :-)

The Final Battle as it was meant to be

Any additional comments?

When I first started reading these books it was a question that often came to mind. "How is he going to write this Final Battle?" and as the books moved along that question only got bigger and bigger. I'm sort of in awe about how well Sanderson realized it(noting of course . So many characters had their moment to be seen in this book, so many, many, different characters throughout these books and Sanderson found a way to weave and wrap up so many ends. All the pieces that were put into play fell into place, from the bowl of the winds, to Matt's memories, to Perrin's abilities, etc., etc. , etc. I also wondered "How can someone write a battle with the dark one??" and again, I think it was done in a very clever way that made sense and was very satisfying.

Now those who don't enjoy reading about long winded battles, this book is 75% strategy, war and suffering,,, but it's the final battle! and character wise everyone gets their swan song for the series.

I had some inkling from Sanderson's other works that he was able to pull off finishing an epic series with a satisfying ending,, of course nothing of this magnitude, and he did not disappoint, it was 5 star all the way. I hope Sanderson's gift to all WOT fans, with his effort and execution, will be boon to his own writing and set up even better his own epics mega series The Stormlight archives.

And one more shout out for Kate Reading and Michael Kramer for consistent excellence in reading every one of these books, it seems rare to have even short series read by the same person/s, and to have ones of such quality really helped deliver the WOT books.

huge fan

always love Robert Jordan may he rest in peace. I've listened to these books several times and it never gets old I'll probably reread them a hundred times before I die.

Outstanding ending to Wheel of Time

Expertly written by Brandon Sanderson who did not miss a beat in taking over the series after Robert Jordan passed away. Ending was feasible and satisfying after the significant investment of time to listen to this very long series. Thoroughly enjoyed the Wheel of Time and highly recommend it to others.

Well Done Jordan, Sanderson. Phenomenal Finale!

What did you love best about A Memory of Light?

I absolutely loved Mat, and Oh ye GODS, EGWENE.

Any additional comments?

God, They really pulled this book off! While reading this enormous book I enjoyed the entire spectrum of emotions- love hate anger, etc., so much so, that I had to slow myself down to savor the first time (of many) that I hear the end of the 3rd Age. I'm so glad I did. Well worth the wait, jordan fans will be pleased, and sanderson fans too, and more importantly, WoT fans in general.
However..The battles did almost take it out of me, but when they get to the last battle.. so refreshing, enjoyable, frustrating, annoying and ultimately, BAD ASS.
Great finale for an absoutely amazing series. As a long time fan, I feel very satisfied with this ending, and it makes me so happy! There is more that could have been said, but theres almost as much enjoyment wondering what happens next, or what about that other character, etc., But ultimately, they wrapped things up very nicely. :)
ahh So amazing!! Highly recommend.

Best Fantasy Series. Hands Down

It may seem long but it's well worth it. The only danger is this making every trilogy you've ever read or will read seem incomplete
