Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! DescriptionA Memory of Light is the final novel in the acclaimed Wheel of Time series, one of the most influential and popular fantasy epics ever published. Written by Robert Jordan and completed by Brandon Sanderson, this breathtaking installment concludes an extraordinary saga of adventure, heroism, and magic.
As darkness looms over the land, the fate of the world rests on the shoulders of a few brave souls. In the Field of Merrilor, rulers of nations convene, torn between supporting Rand al'Thor's audacious plan to break the seals imprisoning the Dark One or opposing him, fearing it to be a sign of his descent into madness. Meanwhile, Egwene al'Vere, the Amyrlin Seat, wrestles with her own convictions, leaning towards the latter perspective.
Amidst the chaos, the Trollocs seize Caemlyn, posing an imminent threat to the realm of Andor. In the perilous wolf dream, Perrin Aybara faces off against the merciless Slayer, waging a battle that transcends the physical world. Approaching Ebou Dar, Mat Cauthon schemes a visit to his wife Tuon, now known as Fortuona, Empress of the Seanchan, hoping to secure an alliance in this time of dire need.
The fate of all humankind stands on a knife's edge, with the ultimate showdown poised to unfold in Shayol Ghul. The Wheel of Time turns inexorably, heralding the end of an Age and the dawn of the Last Battle. The outcome will decide the destiny of the world.
"And it came to pass in those days, as it had come before and would come again, that the Dark lay heavy on the land and weighed down the hearts of men, and the green things failed, and hope died." - Charal Drianaan te Calamon, The Cycle of the Dragon.
