Publisher's Summary

Now an original series starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine!

Robert Jordan’s number one New York Times best-selling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, continues as Rand al’Thor and his companions set out to retrieve a powerful magical artifact from The Dark One’s Shadowspawn in The Great Hunt.

For centuries, gleemen have told the tales of The Great Hunt of the Horn. So many tales about each of the Hunters, and so many Hunters to tell of....

Now the Horn itself is found: the Horn of Valere long thought only legend, the Horn which will raise the dead heroes of the ages.

And it is stolen.

In pursuit of the thieves, Rand al’Thor is determined to keep the Horn out of the grasp of The Dark One. But he has also learned that he is The Dragon Reborn - the Champion of Light destined to stand against the Shadow time and again. It is a duty and a destiny that requires Rand to uncover and master magical capabilities he never imagined he possessed.

Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time® has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters. The last six books in series were all instant number one New York Times best sellers, and The Eye of the World was named one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read.

Best book of the series

I love the whole series, but this book is the best, and both narrators have worked the kinks out of their characterizations. Love it!

cliff hanger

it's a great book. Just like the one before it is a lot to take in but it shined bright for one of my favorite characters and did the rest well.

Love it, had read it, now listening to it again

Love it, had read it, now listening to it again.

As a person that has so many fateful meetings, 6 degrees (more like 3) of separation. I enjoy the story of having a path, that no matter how much you try the web of fate, brings you back to the road you must travel.

Expands massively on first book's plotline

The male voice actor here should be especially applauded. The change in tone and vocal cadence for each character is truly engaging. The plot is pretty standard fantasy, but the weaving storylines come together in a very epic and satisfying way.
