About this book
“In this sequel to the phenomenal New York Times bestseller The Fires of Heaven, we plunge again into Robert Jordan's extraordinarily rich, totally unforgettable world:
On the slopes of Shayol Ghul, the Myrddraal swords are forged, and the sky is not the sky of this world;
In Salidar the White Tower in exile prepares an embassy to Caemlyn, where Rand Al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, holds the throne--and where an unexpected visitor may change the world....
In Emond's Field, Perrin Goldeneyes, Lord of the Two Rivers, feels the pull of ta'veren to ta'veren and prepares to march....
Morgase of Caemlyn finds a most unexpected, and quite unwelcome, ally....And south lies Illian, where Sammael holds sway....” - from publisher
Summary
Reader reviews for Lord of Chaos: Book Six of 'The Wheel of Time'
Review summary
Readers found the sixth Wheel of Time installment both pivotal and polarizing. Many praised its expanded worldbuilding and political intrigue, the introduction of the Black Tower and Asha’man, and Rand’s deepening arc, culminating in a breathtaking, iconic finale that several called one of the series’ best moments. At the same time, the book drew criticism for an overlong, detail-obsessed middle, repetitive miscommunication and gender sparring, and uneven pacing that some felt marked the start of the series’ ‘slog.’ Despite the bloat, a large contingent deemed it worth the wait for its devastating, momentum-shifting climax.
