Publisher's summary

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

In Winter's Heart, the ninth novel in Robert Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, Rand al'Thor and his friends face personal trials in their quests to build alliances against the Dark One.

After locating Masema Dagar, the Prophet of the Dragon, on Rand’s behalf, Perrin Aybara returns to his encampment to discover his wife Faile has been abducted by the Shaido Aiel. Determined to reclaim her, Perrin forgoes his mission, risking his army in pursuit of a dangerous and unpredictable enemy.

Wounded and trapped in the Seanchan-occupied city of Ebou Dar, Mat Cauthon is awaiting an opportunity to leave. But he is not the only one in hiding. Three Aes Sedai are desperate to escape. As Mat seeks a way to smuggle them all out of the city, he encounters his own prophesized fate when he meets the Daughter of the Nine Moons.

Rand himself is on a mission of vengeance. He has tracked the traitorous Asha’man who tried to kill him to Far Madding. It is a city where no one is capable of channeling the One Power, leaving Rand vulnerable to those who would stop at nothing to destroy the Dragon Reborn…

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.

Good book, it just felt something was missing

It was a good book I just felt the end of the book didn’t feel right. It was forced which was a little bit frustrating for me as a reader. It just didn’t feel authentic

Best so far in this series

Great book, possibly my favorite so far in this series! The reading was great by the narrators. At times it was a little hard to follow the story with so many characters, but the overall story was still good.

Review

The narrorators were fantastic. They kept the accents constant throughout this very long book and they did not over-do any tone or inflection. They spoke at a good speed and make listening to this book very enjoyable.

Fix this!

What would have made Winter's Heart better?

There are some chapters that are entirely skipped. Audible please find a way to fix this! I want to own this series into perpetuity. This book kind of ruins it.
