Description

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

In Crossroads of Twilight, the tenth novel in Robert Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, Rand al'Thor and his allies endure trials by fire amidst battles, sacrifices, and treachery.

Fleeing from Ebou Dar with the kidnapped Daughter of the Nine Moons, whom he is fated to marry, Mat Cauthon learns that he can neither keep her nor let her go, not in safety for either of them, for both the Shadow and the might of the Seanchan Empire are in deadly pursuit.

Perrin Aybara will stop at nothing to free his wife Faile from the Shaido Aiel. Consumed by rage, he offers no mercy to those he takes prisoner. And when he discovers that Masema Dagar, the Prophet of the Dragon, has been conspiring with the Seanchan, Perrin considers making an unholy alliance.

Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn himself, has cleansed the Dark One's taint from the male half of the True Source, and everything has changed. Yet nothing has, for only men who can channel believe that saidin is clean again, and a man who can channel is still hated and feared—even one prophesied to save the world. Now, Rand must gamble again, with himself at stake, and he cannot be sure which of his allies are really enemies.

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.

    Moved very slowly. No big buildup to ending like other books. Love the characters.

    If I quit this series this book will be the reason why. I am more than halfway through this book and nothing has happened. This series needs 1,000 less characters. Find a online summary of this book. Do not attempt to read.

  • A Bit Rambling

    This installment meandered more than the previous. Large complex plot lines felt bogging down. However, the story is creeping forward, though didn’t feel like much happened. Just setting up for what comes next. Worth reading to get you to the next book.

    Merrilin morellin murillon meerolon mundelin names names! There are do many characters in this there’s NO WAY to keep track! My eyes glazed over more than once hearing another new name and detailed description of their mannerisms and style of dress. Of the series so far this is the most boring. That said, I’m looking forward to continuing the story.

  • Too much filler...

    I've really enjoyed the entire series, but on this re-read I realize that this whole book is nothing but filler and fluff. Nothing much goes on in the story. Just a lot of dullness... Not my favorite in the series..

  • Slow, but necessary.

    You can only read so many chapters about Perrin & his people making camp in the snow, but not doing anything....yet... Before hour eyes glaze over. If Jordan was trying to make us feel his frustration at having to wait, he did a good job. There IS enough plot here though that continuity will suffer if don't read it tho.

    Unless you are really into women evening against each other and what they are wearing today, this was extremely BORING. Too many characters to keep track of and no action at all. Not even any resolution at the end. No major event such as the other books had, like killing one of the forsaken, etc. A real este of time, and if you skip it and go straight to book 1/ you won't even know you missed a book.

  • Slow!

    This is by far the slowest book of the series. It's not terrible but it just feels like nothing happens. The other books are wonderful though.
