Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
The fifth audio volume of the Wheel of Time series is now available in unabridged format on CD
In this sequel to the phenomenal New York Times bestseller The Shadow Rising, Robert Jordan again plunges us into his extraordinarily rich, totally unforgettable world:
...Into the forbidden city of Rhuidean, where Rand al’Thor, now the Dragon Reborn, must conceal his present endeavor from all about him, even Egwene and Moiraine.
...Into the Amyrlin’s study in the White Tower, where Amyrlin, Flaida do Avriny a ‘Roihan, is weaving new plans.
...Into the luxurious hidden chamber where the Forsaken Rahvin is meeting with three of his fellows to ensure their ultimate victory over the Dragon.
...Into the Queen’s court in Caemlyn, where Morgase is curiously in thrall to the handsome Lord Gaebril.
For once the Dragon walks the land, the fires of Heaven fall where they will, until all men’s lives are ablaze. And in Shayol Ghul, the Dark One stirs...

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Great
If you like the books so far you will love this one the ending is so intense.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - A Review
The box arrived in good condition if just a bit later then expected (two days beyond stated delivery window). The packaging was well done to prevent damage and the box contained what I had ordered, always a good thing.

I don't understand why sellers do not give a brief synopsis of the book they are selling and would be grateful for this addition. But over all I was happy with this sellers treatment of my order.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - The beginning of the middle of the end
This book has it's moments, and a three-star book isn't a bad one. This just isn't a great one, but it could've been. While I took great joy in seeing Nynaeve humbled, there was just too much of her. Her thoughts are mostly copied and pasted fears, ramblings, lustings, and hating men. Everywhere. And how many instances of "I'll never understand women" will we find in here? No, Jordan needed an editor. The fantasy within the fantasy is that every word is necessary in here. Not so. If this book can meticulously detail what people are wearing, and each character comparing what everybody looks like to others, or I suppose other women would find him attractive, and how attracted Nynaeve is to some schmuck, then where is all the detail on the things we care about? Like the combat and the gore. Nope, we get more worrying over who is with who and the daytime drama factor. No Perrin in this book either. I'm tired of these bumpkins and their constant comparing of how they look and appear to others. I'm tired of Rand having a more difficult time figuring out who he will shack up with (and you know his readers don't have this problem) than he does destroying people or solving crucial problems. Does the series end for me here? I'll probably read the subsequent one, because it's there, and because of the cliffhanger ending. Hopefully there will be less Nynaeve in the subsequent one.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful Story/World/Readers
I love the series. It's a great world with characters you can really sink your teeth into. The two readers are very very good. I have nothing bad to say about it.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - A step up from Shadow Rising
After a couple of chapters to set the stage, the Rand plotline moves forward at breakneck pace throughout this volume and a number of important events take place (including the biggest mystery of all in this series!). My only complaints were that the Siuan/Min/Leane and Elayne/Nynaeve threads moved too slowly at times. However, the Elayne/Nynaeve thread still had some critical events take place. I truly enjoyed the Rand/Aviendha interaction, as I did Mat resisting the call of battle at very first before giving in. The last 100-150 pages of this book are shattering, and really serve as the conclusion to the events from Shadow Rising. While it dips in parts, this is a solid four rated book and really makes you yearn for the subsequent book.
