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....

Featured Article: The Best Female Narrators You Can Listen To All Day


When considering a new audiobook, one of the biggest questions listeners have is whether they’ll enjoy the narration style. This is understandable as audiobooks span at least a few hours, and sticking with one person’s voice for that period can feel like a big commitment. Luckily, there are so many excellent voice actors performing audiobooks that you might just find yourself gravitating to certain audiobooks based solely on the narrator’s strength.

Filler book that barely moved the story

Almost nothing happened. The perfoamces were fantastic as always, as was the writing but feels like everything could have been accomplished in 1/4 the time and added to the next book. 75% of the story could have been dropped as it will have no affect on the book and would not be missed

The Wheel of Time turns......

#Audible 1 This series is arguably the modern Lord of the Rings. Rich, detailed and filled with a unique take on old themes and words, the Wheel of time is a Must Read for those who call themselves fans of High Fantasy Genre books.

Some people get excited about budgets

and some of us prefer action. I’m pretty sure this book made many details-oriented folks happy as it delved into political and social structures. Now that the framework is in my mind I’m hoping there is more story movement in the next books.

Jordan weaves as Jordan wills

This is my third read-through of the entire series and my 4th time through the first 10 books.

I've read a lot of reviews from other readers claiming that from The Path of Daggers through Winter's Heart to Crossroads of Twilight, the story "slogs on", but I disagree.

Robert Jordan managed to tell the story of multiple major viewpoint characters with overlapping timelines in a way that touched on major events in the right order and showed the ripples of each through the other character's viewpoints at a later time. And he did this masterfully.

As an aspiring author working on an epic fantasy series, I can only hope that, when my story is finally published, I was able to wield the written word with similar mastery.

The Slog

This book is a known slog. It can be a bit tough at times as RJ's writing hit a low point. Your first read through will be rough, but this book has a place in the story and I've found I appreciate it more after my second and third read.
