The Wheel of Time ® is a PBS Great American Read Selection! Now in development for TV!

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.

In Towers of Midnight, the Last Battle has started. The seals on the Dark One's prison are crumbling. The Pattern itself is unraveling, and the armies of the Shadow have begun to boil out of the Blight.

The sun has begun to set upon the Third Age.

Perrin Aybara is now hunted by specters from his past: Whitecloaks, a slayer of wolves, and the responsibilities of leadership. All the while, an unseen foe is slowly pulling a noose tight around his neck. To prevail, he must seek answers in Tel'aran'rhiod and find a way--at long last--to master the wolf within him or lose himself to it forever.

Meanwhile, Matrim Cauthon prepares for the most difficult challenge of his life. The creatures beyond the stone gateways--the Aelfinn and the Eelfinn--have confused him, taunted him, and left him hanged, his memory stuffed with bits and pieces of other men's lives. He had hoped that his last confrontation with them would be the end of it, but the Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills. The time is coming when he will again have to dance with the Snakes and the Foxes, playing a game that cannot be won. The Tower of Ghenjei awaits, and its secrets will reveal the fate of a friend long lost.

Dovie'andi se tovya sagain. It's time to toss the dice.

O fim de uma saga se aproxima

A leitura encerra os eventos do último livro. Egwene continua como líder na Torre Branca, Rand busca redenção, Perrin finalmente aceita seu destino, e Mat segue sua busca por Moiraine. Alguns destinos dos personagens são determinados, enquanto outros permanecem incertos. Na fronteira da Praga, batalhas são travadas, reinos são destruídos e outros resistem. Embora não tenha sido um dos melhores livros da saga, ainda assim abordou algumas questões importantes. Achei a leitura interessante; os servos das trevas se mostraram incompetentes, e muitos deles pereceram. Quem estará ao lado do Senhor do Escuro na batalha final?
Aviendha com uma visão do futuro perturbadora, e ansioso pelo encontro da minha personagem preferida a Moraine com o Rand.
