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

With Robert Jordan’s untimely passing in 2007, Brandon Sanderson, the New York Times bestselling author of the Mistborn novels and the Stormlight Archive, was chosen by Jordan’s editor—his wife, Harriet McDougal—to complete the final volume in The Wheel of Time®, later expanded to three books.

In Towers of Midnight, the thirteenth novel in Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, the Last Battle has truly begun. 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. And trials by fire await those fighting against the darkness that encroaches from their enemies—and within themselves…

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.

Mat Cauthon must once again face the creatures beyond the stone gateways, the Aelfinn and the Eelfinn. He had hoped that his last confrontation with them would be the end of it, but the Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills. The Tower of Ghenjei awaits, and its secrets will reveal the fate of a friend long lost.

Rand al’Thor, the Dragon Reborn, arrives at the White Tower with a startling revelation for Egwene al’Vere. Fearful for his sanity, Egwene summons the rulers of the Borderlands to stand against him—knowing the fate of the world rests in their hands.

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.

Awesome. Awesome. Amazing. Do not want to harm anyones feelings but for me Sanderson has done great job in retelling Jordan, even better than the master himself.

Rokin Robn

Surprises and satisfaction. Cant wait to read the whole series again with this satisfying conclusion. I will always read this series as I have for all these years, Sandersons books taking their rightful place in the" Wheel of Time " series. Can't wait for the last book!

Shae'en M'taal

To all the trolls out there..... These books have been my literary life for about four years now. Literally, I have read about ten books outside the series in that four years and its been pure joy reading the series from start to finish, then doing it again and again each time finding things I missed or making connections that I didnt make before. This book was no exception to the train of excellence that rides under the WoT banner, despite the slight deviations from the voice of Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson, aided by Robert Jordan's wife Harriet, did a magnificent job of keeping the story and characters in the epic line that the books have followed so far. I have been going through the comments for a lot of the books here on iTunes and was astonished to see so many people complaining that the books were slow. Many people complained about excessive detail, or not much happening besides character development, even a general "not enough action". The people who wrote these reviews are quite obviously not frequent purveyors of the grand epics of our time. Stories where entire worlds with established culture and histories are created as if they had been in place of our reality, stories such as the Tolkien's Lord of the Rings or Herbert's Dune. A world of a story requires a world of details, and the Wheel of Time series is most definitely a world of a story. It is on such a grand scale that it REQUIRES a staggering amount of detail to even become a cohesive whole. If you cannot stand the intensive story then I suggest two things: 1. go and start reading young adult fiction, things like Animorphs or Redwall. Those are great stories but are meant for a less appreciative audience. 2. dont post about something as amazing as this and say things that required the attention span of a rogue Dragonsworn to think up.

Bitter-sweet. Great read...I am a little disappointed that I now have to wait for more books though...again. Seriously, I love the series, but it bothers me beyond words that I don't know the ending still after all these years. I actually mean that in the worst way possible.

Merphstir

A masterpiece!. Can't wait to read the final book,

Ratiqu

Rather well done.. I have to say, you cannot read this expecting Jordan's style. Sanderson, while certainly not a bad writer, still falls well short of Jordan's elegance. If you read keeping that in mind, the experience will be vastly improved. It is extremely engaging, albeit long by geberal standards. I prefer it this long, as it gives me that much more time to enjoy it. Things are really beginning to culminate, ends meeting and tension building. I am stoked for Tarmon Gai'don.

Towers of Midnight. Amazing book, could not put it down. Can't wait to read the ending after years of immersion in the WOT world.

Mr Austrian

Finally. Aft sooooo many books we are finally getting a glimpse on how it will end. Yes there are still some loose threads but he is bringing a lot of closure in this book. And he is doing it in great way. Could not put my iPad down after I started to read. I loved how Rand seems to be growing up. If you got this far with this series this is a must read. One of the best books of the series.

ThisIsTheTruth

Just as bad as original Jordan books. Really -- the stories were long and repetitious before. I suspected someone taking up the mantle and carrying on the "legacy" would be extremely disappointing, and I was not disappointed.

CamBeeler

Awesome. I've reread the series once again to place the book in proper context. I was a bit concerned that a new author just wouldn't be able to pull it off seamlessly. Sanderson actually did an amazing job of recombining the many threads of this story in a mature and credible way. This is now my favorite WOT book to date. Credit to Jordan for complete plot development. Credit to Sanderson for amazingly aggregating the many threads in an effective and immensely satisfying read!!!

Zipadeedoodahzipadeeday

Towers of Midnight. In this book you sacrifice depth of characters Jordan provided, but gain a plot that moves at more than Jordan's glacial speed. The last two books are worth reading! They allow Wheel of Time lovers to return to "Randland" in a very satisfying way. I look forward to the finale!

SpyderBite36

Nice build up to the finale. Sanderson took the series which Jordan was slowly drowning with too much detail and endless chapters; and returned the books back to the action packed series of adventure, politics and magic! I'm looking forward to the final installment in January with bittersweet anticipation.

Jon Stark

Not as good as I hoped. First of all, I thought Sanderson did a pretty good job with the previous book, taking over for Jordan. And I really liked his first Way of Kings book, I think it's going to be an excellent series. Mistborn trilogy? Very well done. So I really like Sanderson as a writer. But so much of this book felt so tired, rehashed bits of Jordan, but without Jordan's gifts, in other words like the worst parts of Jordan were summoned, not the best parts. It feels more like an ethereal ghost of a book instead of the actual thing. Some good stuff in it, but unsatisfying. Sanderson doesn't quite have the voices of some if the major characters right, particularly Mat. Perrin and Faile continue to bore the stuffing out of me, as does Elayne. There's actually a lot that happens in about the last third if the book, but I found it a tough slog to get there. Now I'll read the final book because I feel like I have to, not because I want to, and that's a shame.

Protzy09

Great. Sanderson did a great job on these books. They are, in my opinion, more engaging than the previous books because he doesn't get bogged down in details but rather provides a lot more action and adventure. Great job sir.

IsEqualToKel

Great Book. Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson at their best.

Nashlake

Awesome. Sanderson has taken Jordans world and is continuing with the excellence we have come to enjoy. I can't wait to read the final book in the series.

Egal Sindar

EPIC Reborn. Hats of to Sanderson!! Heroic at carrying the torch beyond expectations. Jordan would be proud. Life imitates the story as fate brings Sanderson's fingers to weave new life into the series in a way that you could almost believe Jordan planned it that way.( from a perspective he did) The book solidifies the characters to another level, and becomes a strong stepping stone in the never-ending dream that spirals up like a Ogier staircase, almost at the top. One more step to go...

Toohey2

Outstanding. I am so excited to finish Mr. Jordan's journey with Mr. Sanderson! This series has only gotten better. I love these characters like they are old friends. The return of LAN to the pages brought tears of joy to my eyes! No kidding! I am now sad to have to wait for the conclusion. P.S. I love reading books on my iPad and never want to read paper again.

Teto8387

Towers of midnight. At first I was not sure if Sandrson could keep the same level of excitement as jordon did but he actually succeded although u could spot a difference between them

About Author "Robert Jordan & Brandon Sanderson"

The Gathering Storm is a fantasy novel by American writers Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson, the twelfth book in the series The Wheel of Time. It was incomplete when Jordan died on September 16, 2007, from cardiac amyloidosis. His widow Harriet McDougal and his publisher Tom Doherty chose Sanderson to continue the book. Jordan originally intended to finish the series in a single volume titled A Memory of Light. However, when Sanderson began writing the book, it became clear that a single volume would be too large to print. The expected final book was split into three volumes: The Gathering Storm, Towers of Midnight, and A Memory of Light. The books would be published a year apart with the first volume, The Gathering Storm, published on October 27, 2009; a week earlier than originally announced. Upon its release, it immediately rose to the No. 1 position on The New York Times hardcover fiction Best Seller list, making it the fifth consecutive Wheel of Time book to achieve this f....
