In the tenth book of The Wheel of Time from the New York
Times #1 bestselling author Robert Jordan, the world and
the characters stand at a crossroads, and the world
approaches twilight, when the power of the Shadow grows
stronger. 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 seeks to free his wife, Faile, a
captive of the Shaido, but his only hope may be an
alliance with the enemy. Can he remain true to his friend
Rand and to himself? For his love of Faile, Perrin is
willing to sell his soul. At Tar Valon, Egwene al'Vere,
the young Amyrlin of the rebel Aes Sedai, lays siege to
the heart of Aes Sedai power, but she must win quickly,
with as little bloodshed as possible, for unless the Aes
Sedai are reunited, only the male Asha'man will remain to
defend the world against the Dark One, and nothing can
hold the Asha'man themselves back from total power except
the Aes Sedai and a unified White Tower. In Andor, Elayne
Trakland fights for the Lion Throne that is hers by right,
but enemies and Darkfriends surround her, plotting her
destruction. If she fails, Andor may fall to the Shadow,
and the Dragon Reborn with it. 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.
