Publisher Description
Now a major TV series on Prime Video
The fourth novel in the Wheel of Time series - one of the most influential and popular fantasy epics ever published.
The Stone of Tear, invulnerable fortress of legend, has fallen. The Children of the Dragon have risen to the call of prophecy and march to the aid of the Light. Callandor, the Sword That Is Not a Sword, is held by Rand al'Thor, the man proclaimed as the Dragon Reborn.
But still the shadows lengthen and still the Forsaken grow in strength. If he is to fight them, Rand must master the male half of the True Source, a power corrupted by the Dark One, a power that drives men to madness, a power that may save or damn the world.

Customer Reviews
Exciting last few chapters
I enjoyed the reading of this book. Some parts were difficult to read… Maybe when writing an epic.. What the mind thinks, the pen doesn’t understand!!
But it’s mostly great.
Very detailed character and scene write ups.
Worth the read.
consistent at least...
...only on page 88 and the diabolical spelling is already evident. This series of books is proving to be the worst I've ever bought. It's a shame because I'm loving the actual story. My grasp of the English language might not be considered that great but even I could proof read better than the people involved in this publication. Shame on you also for charging the same price as the printed version whilst not actually having to make a single book.
