Description

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

In Lord of Chaos, the sixth novel in Robert Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, Rand al’Thor, the Dragon Reborn, builds his army of Light even as sworn enemies--and supposed allies--move against him.

Now ruling Tear, Andor, and Caemlyn, among other nations, Rand is recruiting all men capable of channeling to be trained as his Asha'man soldiers. The warrior Aiel clans have pledged loyalty to Rand, acknowledging him as their chief of chiefs, even though the Shaido Aiel remain a threat.

Split into two factions, the Aes Sedai of the White Tower and their rebel counterparts both seek to ally themselves with the Dragon Reborn. Rand knows all too well the manipulative nature of the Aes Sedai, no matter which side of their internal war they stand upon. But even he cannot predict just how desperate, cruel, and treacherous they can be.

And in the shadows, the Forsaken and the Dark One are conjuring even more chaos...

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.

Getting Worse

The first few novels in the series were innovative and entertaining. This sixth installment is so weak, I will be giving up for awhile. Jordan's world is rich and engrossing, but the character development is infuriating. Further, fully half of the novel takes place in Trel'aran'rhiod (the Dream World) - it's interesting but metaphysical to an annoying degree. I've tried to stick with the series because I would like to see what happens in the epic battle of Good vs The Shadow, but the characters are literally insufferable. Every time some insipid character smooths her skirts, sniffs, obsesses over dresses, or puts her chin up..or some confused lovestruck/sex-starved youth gives up on understanding "stubborn women"..I want to scream at Robert Jordan. JUST TELL THE STORY!! It's my impression that the series has fallen into a new "pattern". The first four books were "Separate and Adventure - meet you at the climax."  Now we are seeing "Learn stuff, get Experience and Power - Scheme." *sigh* I will be taking a break from the series for a few months. 2 Stars for this recording.

This One Was Just A Filler

Not a lot happening in this installment of the WoT - I get the feeling the author just wanted to fill pages, but didn't have much plot development to offer.
I'd almost recommend reading a summary of the book instead of grinding through it (unless you're a completionist).

finally!

After almost 5 books of the women in the story constantly overpowering the men in a sometimes frustrating way, this book finally shows a turn of events. It seems like the army the dragon is building finally pays off. You see even more how sinister the ae sedai are and they are losing it this book. I loved the battle, possibly my favourite ending battle yet. I loved seeing perin again. Wow loved how his morals are juxtaposed against Randy’s and we can now see how much they’ve grown.

What I did not like, was the progress of the women in this book. While nyneave has some amazing accomplishments. It seems like much of the salidar story line didn’t make sense. I thought a good part was a literal dream. It seems like things are moving way too fast for them and in an unnatural way. Also their attitude towards the men around them is exhausting after six books. I was happy to see Matt get under their skin.

Kudos to the narrators

I have been reading hard copies of this series and switched to audiobook for this one as I’ve been too busy to sit and read. I was nervous that the voices and name pronunciations in my mind would butt uncomfortably up against the narrator’s versions, but honestly it has been a very smooth transition. Having two narrators makes for lovely transitions between characters. Really enjoyed this.

last book I will read.

Very boring till last chapter. Most time was spent to sow seeds for next books even till second last chapter. Gives you feeling of heavy read. whole book was read(heard) with heavy burden.

Starts to slow down, but when it hits, it hits.

I really liked Lord of Chaos, but I can definitely understand people who struggle. While the cast and Point of View characters start to expand in Shadow Rising, all of these plot threads really start to have an impact in this book. Lord of Chaos also has some segments that can drag, as the pace slows down to accommodate all of that.

This book also makes the start of two particularly long sub-plots that follow through the next four or five books (particularly the jealousy plot and the southern city plot), and the issue with so many Aes Sedai names that all sound the same, and the reader (listener) is expected to remember who they all are.

The climax of this one is one of the best so far, and definitely one of the high points of the series, so if you're having trouble getting through Lord of Chaos, consider taking a break with New Spring, or a different series for a bit, but definitely power through to get to the end.

I really struggled to get through this book. it took me 7 months because I kept getting so bored. Most people that I talked to said the same but to push through it because it gets better apparently.
