Publisher's summary

The Wheel of Time is now an original series on Prime Video, starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine!

In The Path of Daggers, the eighth novel in Robert Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, Rand al'Thor engages in battle wearing the Crown of Swords and wielding Callandor against a force unprepared for the wrath of the Dragon Reborn.

The Seanchan invaders are heading for Illian—and Rand's army of Asha'man soldiers. When they meet in battle, some of the Asha'man are afflicted by madness, unable to control their channeling and unleashing raw power.

The madness extends to Rand himself. He has been hearing the voice of a man believed to have been the previous Dragon Reborn. Besieged by visions and debilitated whenever he uses the One Power, Rand chooses to attack the Seanchan with Callandor. The sword consumes him with a berserker rage, felling ally and enemy alike. And when he regains his senses, Rand finds himself less trusted by those who were once the most loyal.

Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time® by Robert Jordan has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters. The last six books in series were all instant #1 New York Times bestsellers, and The Eye of the World was named one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read.

chapter 7 is missing part of the ending. it sounds like it cuts off in the middle.

Glitchy

The sound file for this book seems to be glitchy. I haven’t had a problem with any book before and the next book is fine. The audio skips and jumps and hiccups several times throughout the story.

Glad the story picks up

This book was a lot more entertaining than book six, which was a drag. Generally, it’s another build up book but at least there’s some things going on that’s significant to the story.

Voice actors got better, a little bland.

Not the best of the books. I'm sure it was necessary to push the over-all plot through. Things were slow for the main characters and, at points, there are so many minor characters involved that it's just hard to keep track.

That being said, I still enjoyed it and would suggest to a friend. The voice acting by Mike Kramer and Kate Reading only improves through the series.

Ok storyline

It's not my favorite Wheel of Time book, but it's still good. Gets bland in the middle but then picks up at the end.

Book 8

I'm pretty sure this is the eight book of the series. it continues the story of our favorite friends off on their light hearted adventures. Audible keeps making me write these in order to rate books for some reason.

I’m holding on for the last three books

Amazing performance, but the last couple book’s have been slooooooow. I keep hearing that the last three books are SPECTACULAR so I’m holding on until then.
