À propos de cet audio

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.

I’m reading through again for the 3rd time again (unless you count starting at book 10 each time one of the last books was coming out - then it would be like the 5th) and I’m deep in Lord of Chaos... Perrin has just summoned the wolves (Two Moons!).

The book builds in a very mature way, some people might have found it slow, but there is a reason behind it. There are so many characters that Jordan has to spread the butter evenly on the bread. It is like watching a master chef at work: at the beginning he sets out to prepare the meal, by checking in with the characters, the menu, and all the kitchen tools and utensils needed for the meal. He starts by cleaning the kitchen, then bringing in all the food, washing everything off, chopping everything up, marinating and opening the wine to breathe. He makes sure we understand the context by preparing all the plates and candles, setting alight the stoves and ovens. Then he starts cooking, searing, turning, stirring, basting, simmering, and finally with liveried Aiel growing out their hair and serving their toh (Sulin!) serving the meal in absolute splendor.

And finally at the end it is time to eat this delicious set up. It’s one of the tastiest ones of the series. Hail Master Chef Jordan!

Hail to the Chef, Robert Jordan! LoC is tasty!!

I really like this series, the story and especially the characters are top notch.

My only gripe would be the repetitive descriptions as though readers in this, the sixth book in the series, are reading the wheel of time series as though starting book 1.

It's even better on audible allowing me to listen on my 45 min commute. The voice narrating/acting is great! I like the way they switch up readers based on the sex of the main character perspective each chapter. A males' inner thoughts reflect a mans and a females' a woman's respectively.

A great series! One of the best!

Conflict between men and women and low opinion of men by women seems to mark this story. Plot is superb and action scenes excellent.

Not the best of the series.... prolly the worst so far. Also the narrators suddenly changed pronunciation of names in this book for some reason.... Tar Valon, Mogedeon...

The most boring of the series so far

I'm really enjoying this series. I tried the physical copy a few years ago but couldn't get into it but the audible version hits differently somehow. Lord of Chaos might be my fav book so far.

so intrigued

Been through 6 books now and the first is still the best in the series thus far. This book is good but typically not much excitement until the last 5-10 chapters.

Good Stort, Not the Best

the twists and turns of this book made wanting to listen 'just one more chapter' for every chapter very enticing. worth a read - great series!!

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.

Kudos to the narrators
