In the Second Age, The Dragon subdues the Dark One and his disciples in a mystical prison. The Third Age has begun and the Dragon is gone, but reborn in a boy who doesn't yet know his supreme calling. Time is precious, for the prison degenerates and the Dark One can soon work his evil. Only the boy, Rand, can stop him.
From his prison, the Dark One wills his warriors to destroy the Rand's village. But Moiraine, a servant of The Dragon, comes with her Protector. They fight off the warriors and whisk away Rand. He's destined for Tar-Valon, the island city of the Aes Sedai, where he'll discover his power. Can the Dark One stop his journey?

      Three young friends from a village so far on the fringes that its residents no longer know they're part of the queen's kingdom set out on an adventure that will change their lives and place them in the middle of events they can neither control nor escape. Michael Kramer sets this first book of a classic series on strong ground, with Kate Reading contributing to the narration. The characters spring to life as they face the challenges and torments that the wheel of life has drawn them into. These veteran narrators keep the plot moving and the narration fresh. A brief interview with the author is a bonus. J.E.M. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine

      Rosamund Pike brings a fresh narration to the first book in the beloved Wheel of Time series. At 33 hours, this audiobook is no small undertaking, but Pike's impressive performance leaves listeners wanting more. In a time of legends, magic, and mythical beasts, Pike's vivid portrayals of the wide-ranging cast and otherworldly characters are mesmerizing. Teenage Rand and a loyal group of outland villagers set off with Moiraine, a powerful enchantress, and her steadfast guard. The villagers soon discover that the terrifying creatures of their childhood fables are real as perils intensify on their improbable quest to save the world. Pike will delight listeners with her extraordinary storytelling. Her dynamic performance enhances this epic masterpiece. M.W.W. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
