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.

Robert must be a women

I'm sick of hearing the women put down the men for the whole book when it should be the other way around. The men are stronger and more dedicated. It's been for the whole free chapters 4 chapters now, great women and idiot men. I'm gonna read one more book and if it doesn't get better I'm out for good and will never read another Robert Jordon book.

This does not disappoint.

Would you consider the audio edition of Winter's Heart to be better than the print version?

I've not read the print version, but the audio version was awesome.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Winter's Heart?

The cleansing of saidin.

Have you listened to any of Kate Reading and Michael Kramer ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This one is as good as the others.

Great performance by Kate & Michael, but substandard editing

This must be the worst audio-edited WoT book that I've come across so far. Full paragraphs are repeated (happened over ten times), and there was a mistake or two by the readers.

Regarding the book, nothing much happens in it except the last 20 pages or so and we're left in limbo about the fate of two important characters. Also, there's a lot of confusing business with the Forsaken.
