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....

Brandon Sanderson really brings the book to life

Would you listen to A Memory of Light again? Why?

No. I simply cannot condone a book that encourages enslavement of women. The violence made me sick. I only continued to read the series because I thought this would be resolved and the error of their ways would be pointed out. It was not.

Any additional comments?

The writing style is beautiful. I love listening to the narrators. If female torture does not bother you then there are many things to love here.

😢So sad

Loved this series! It is my favorite by far. Sad that it is over. May you, Robert Jordan, rest in the light and be reborn in the light. There are no endings but this is an ending...

If you're looking at this you already know

Wraps up the series wonderfully. Their are neither beginnings or endings to the wheel of time, but this is an ending worth a read.

A Memory of Light

Any additional comments?

I thought when I was listening to the 13th book, I was listening to the end of the series. I got to the end of the book and was shocked that that was how the series ended. I found out, with great relief that there was another book being edited and eagerly looked forward to its release. I was not disappointed! Brandon Sanderson is a master and did a superb job of finishing Robert Jordan's work. What a finish!

A very satisfying ending

The series can be a slog to get through at points, but the ending is totally worth it.

A satisfactory end for the end of an age.

16 times I have read this series. Everytime I feel the chill and excitement like the first time through. RIP R.J. Well done.

Satisfying but a longing for the journey to con...

An epic nonestop battle. Some don't make it. The store comes to a fitting end of an amazing story!

Great conclusion to the series

What made the experience of listening to A Memory of Light the most enjoyable?

Reaching a conclusion to a series like the "Wheel of Time" is wonderful. The entire set of stories was well crafted and the performances were excellent. Having a cast that you can follow throught all their changes and evolutions to a good ending is worth the wait.

What other book might you compare A Memory of Light to and why?

The "Game of Thrones" is similar but I consider the "Wheel of Time" series more interesting as there is a set of characters through the entire series.

What about Michael Kramer and Kate Reading ’s performance did you like?

Michael and Kate did an excellent performance making a very long series interesting and soemthing you could enjoy more than once.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

As one setting would have taken more than an entire day it was consumed as quickly as possible.

What An Incredible Story

I enjoyed this book so much, you really got to see who the main characters were and their personalities There was so much detail and build up of each story, and the roles each character played.,bsolutely beautifully. I had a very hard time pulling myself away from this book, it was like an addiction, every chance I got I had to see where the story was heading and with which character. The ending was not expected and I'm not going to say anything else, just read the book. BRAVO to Robert Jordan for giving us a fantastic series, and my hat is off to Brandon Sanderson for taking on the task of finishing off a wonderful series and making us all hold our breath for the grand finish!

female narrator is cringe worthy

i could do without the female narrator . she over pronounces every letter in every word. and her character voices are awful. its like night and day when the male narrator comes on. She almost made it unbearable.
