About this listen

The Wheel of Time is now an original series on Prime Video, starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine!

In Winter's Heart, the ninth novel in Robert Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, Rand al'Thor and his friends face personal trials in their quests to build alliances against the Dark One.

After locating Masema Dagar, the Prophet of the Dragon, on Rand’s behalf, Perrin Aybara returns to his encampment to discover his wife Faile has been abducted by the Shaido Aiel. Determined to reclaim her, Perrin forgoes his mission, risking his army in pursuit of a dangerous and unpredictable enemy.

Wounded and trapped in the Seanchan-occupied city of Ebou Dar, Mat Cauthon is awaiting an opportunity to leave. But he is not the only one in hiding. Three Aes Sedai are desperate to escape. As Mat seeks a way to smuggle them all out of the city, he encounters his own prophesized fate when he meets the Daughter of the Nine Moons.

Rand himself is on a mission of vengeance. He has tracked the traitorous Asha’man who tried to kill him to Far Madding. It is a city where no one is capable of channeling the One Power, leaving Rand vulnerable to those who would stop at nothing to destroy the Dragon Reborn…

Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time® by Robert Jordan has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters. The last six books in series were all instant #1 New York Times bestsellers, and The Eye of the World was named one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read.

Best series just keeps getting better

Really in the heart of Wheel of Time now, and each book is as good as the last. Robert Jordan continues to write prose to make one laugh and cry, with enough humour and wit to keep the story from becoming too dark. My feelings towards some characters has changed immensely since the start of the series and I feel invested in their joys and heartbreaks. There are still five books to go and I'm already feeling that I don't want it to end.

a tale of immense detail vs no detail

this like most of the wheel of time books are very long. but the detail to me is misplaced, he works into many plots with a huge amount of effort but then the plot climax that has taken hours to get to is always brief and somewhat of a letdown.
but all in all i enjoy these books.

Amazing

I’ve read up to this book twice before and given in to “the slog”, but for some reason this time through I didn’t feel the drag at all. Loved every chapter.

RJ comes back to form

Highest quality in the series since book 4. Better pacing and character development. And a little hint to where Sanderson learnt his Sanderlanch finishes.

I think all chapters were there

I read in other reviews that there were missing chapters. Pretty sure they are all available now.

Has all the chapters

This audiobook has all the chapters now when I listened to it so they must have added them in somewhere along the way. I checked against the book, so as per the other audiobooks in this series it’s a good listen.
