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....

Awesome collaboration

We will never know what Robert Jordan would have written has he lived to finish this wonder story. What I can say is that Brandon Sanderson has captured the essence of Jordan’s world and made his part in it. The collaboration of these two authors has created a fantasy epic that I can say is one that rivals all of the greats in our own age.

The story coming together

Everything in the series is coming together perfectly. Sanderson was the perfect choice to finish TWoT series. I am glad that the "last book" as Jorden called it, was turned into 3 books.

All Coming Together

This is such a great series. In this book you begin to see everyone coming back together; the end is near. Alliances are formed that you never thought possible. On one side its a bit sad to know that the end is coming, but the series is so well written and the characters so well formed that it leaves me excited to finally come to the final battle and conclusion.

Boy do I love the characters in this series. They are so well written and such a part of my mind as the story progresses. I go to bed and continue to think about them like they are part of my circle of friends. I love that! I love being attached to characters; it makes a story so much more fulfilling.

With the passing of Robert Jordan I wondered if the books would continue to be well written and if I would still love the characters the same and the story. I feel like Brandon Sanderson did such a fantastic job keeping with Robert Jordan's style and story.

I am listening to this series this time around and the narrators have been the same throughout. Michael Kramer and Kate Reading have done such a great job with the narrating from book one. If anything, they have gotten better with each book. I have thoroughly enjoyed their reading.

Perfection

This book is incredible. Sanderson did a wonderful job. I have no complaints. Every climactic moment (of which there are many) is my favorite part of the book.

Holy hot damn. This is good.

Rand. Mat. Perin. These men are too good. so many satisfying moments, not the best book in the series but still a banger. Great narration as usual, and again Brandon Sanderson is killing it as the late Robert Jordans voice. I love this book; you will too.
