For millions of fans around the globe, the wait is over. Sequel to the international blockbuster bestseller A Crown of Swords, this epic volume continues one of history's greatest fictional journeys and the most extraordinary work of American fantasy ever published--The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and worldwide bestselling series--The Wheel of Time.
The phenomenal tale that is mesmerizing a generation of readers now continues.
The Seanchan invasion force is in possession of Ebou Dar. Nynaeve, Elayne, and Aviendha head for Caemlyn and Elayne's rightful throne, but on the way they discover an enemy much worse than the Seanchan.
In Illian, Rand vows to throw the Seanchan back as he did once before. But signs of madness are appearing among the Asha'man.
In Ghealdan, Perrin faces the intrigues of Whitecloaks, Seanchan invaders, the scattered Shaido Aiel, and the Prophet himself. Perrin's beloved wife, Faile, may pay with her life, and Perrin himself may have to destroy his soul to save her.
Meanwhile the rebel Aes Sedai under their young Amyrlin, Egwene al'Vere, face an army that intends to keep them away from the White Tower. But Egwene is determined to unseat the usurper Elaida and reunite the Aes Sedai. She does not yet understand the price that others--and she herself--will pay.

  • First of the series I bought new

    This is about where the series started to suffer from some bloating and slowing down.

    Very annoying, and it seem that all the characters has suddenly become more idiotic that they already where, and lets face it, they wheren't that smart in the the previous books.

    The path Jordan is walking in this book is not one of daggers, but it is thin indeed. A thin like balancing between a compelling story and total boredom.
    All in all, not much happened in this installment of the saga - or I can't remember it, which amounts to the same thing. On top of that, the ending is as much of a cliffhanger as it can be. After more than 500pages, annoying and a little unfair.

    Still, I have the feeling I'll go on to the next book, sooner or later.
