The Gathering Storm

Book Twelve of the Wheel of Time

De: Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson

Narrado por: Michael Kramer, Kate Reading

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....

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The Wheel of Time...is a fantasy tale seldom equaled and still less often surpassed in English." ( Chicago Sun-Times)
"Jordan has a powerful vision of good and evil - but what strikes me as most pleasurable...is all the fascinating people moving through a rich and interesting world." (Orson Scott Card on The Wheel of Time)

The Dragon Rides Again on the Winds of Time

Well done Mr Sanderson. I didn't know if another author would've been able to pick up a story this complex in the middle and make it work. Brandon Sanderson had done just that. He clearly understands the characters and the world in which they live. I would even go so far as to say that the story moves quicker without losing any of the depth that Mr. Jordan brought to the story. If you're a Wheel of Time fan you'll enjoy this book. If you're new to the series don't even think of starting any where but the beginning. (Book 1 The Eye of the World)

The Best Yet!

When I heard that Brandan Sanderson was finishing the series, I listened to his mistborn series and found that I had confidence in his ability. After listening to The Gathering Storm twice over I am completely blown away. I love how the story focuses more centrally on Rand throughout it. Amazing, thank you Brandon for bringing us the ending to the best fantasy series ever written.

Looking forward to more

Thank you Mr. Jordan for the books you wrote and for your wonderful imagination. I listened to an interview he once gave and was very discouraged at the time when he indicated he planned on just continuing the Wheel of Time saga. I imaged being left with no closure should something happen to him. He died and I and my fears were realized. That being said, the new book by Brandon Sanderson is wonderful. Like many of the reviews, I agree that he is moving us toward an exciting conclusion. After hearing his first book, I am very happy he did not attempt to put everything into a single final volume. I have already purchased the Mistborn saga and I love it as well. Thank you Mrs. Jordan for picking the right person to complete your husbands work!

Awesome again.

I, like many other readers, have suffered through the steady decline after book 6 or 7. Brandon Sanderson brings MUCH needed clarity to the storyline. Plots that have been kept hanging for FAR too many books are wrapped up, needless diversions are ended, female characters FINALLY don't sound like mindless idiots, and the relationships are far more believable. Thank you Brandon for writing emotional depth into relationships beyond that of a 16 yr old's suppositions. (how old I was when I began these books when I was too young to notice!)

Needless to say, Sanderson has made WoT fun to read again. THANK GOD! If this novel signals the quality of the following two, hoo-damn-fricking-ray!

EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS

We have all waited a very long time for this book to come out, and I was not disappointed. I can't wait for the next two books!
