About this listen
Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan has captivated millions of readers and listeners around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters.
The Wheel of Time turns and ages come and go, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the age that gave it birth returns again. In the Third Age, an Age of Prophecy, the World and Time themselves hang in the balance. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.
For three days battle has raged in the snow around the great city of Tar Valon. In the city, a Foretelling of the future is uttered. On the slopes of Dragonmount, the immense mountain that looms over the city, is born an infant prophesied to change the world. That child must be found before the forces of the Shadow have an opportunity to kill him.
Moiraine Damodred, a young Accepted soon to be raised to Aes Sedai, and Lan Mandragoran, a soldier fighting in the battle, are set on paths that will bind their lives together. But those paths are filled with complications and dangers, for Moiraine, of the Royal House of Cairhien, whose king has just died, and Lan, considered the uncrowned king of a nation long dead, find their lives threatened by the plots of those seeking power.
New Spring begins Moiraine and Lan's quest to find the Dragon Reborn that will lead to the events of The Eye of the World...and their fateful meeting with Rand al'Thor.
New Spring is a perfect jumping-on point for fantasy listeners wanting to know more about The Wheel of Time and the forthcoming TV show.

Featured Article: The Best Female Narrators You Can Listen To All Day
When considering a new audiobook, one of the biggest questions listeners have is whether they’ll enjoy the narration style. This is understandable as audiobooks span at least a few hours, and sticking with one person’s voice for that period can feel like a big commitment. Luckily, there are so many excellent voice actors performing audiobooks that you might just find yourself gravitating to certain audiobooks based solely on the narrator’s strength.

Great entry to the series or as extra story
I read this book long after I had started the wheel of time series and I think it’s amazing. It answered so many questions for me and gave me a more in-depth story behind one of my favourite characters.

The Birth of a Legend
Reading this book after “A Memory of Light” you get goose bumps at all the things began here. You should definitely read this book for it’s sake alone.

Less than expected
If you were expecting a book in which has the same scope of multiple characters, telling a thrilling and epic story, you will only be mildly disappointed.
The book set out and did it’s job, as it is a prequel to the series, setting up how the mentor characters Lan, and Moraine met.
Though I must confess I was expecting Tam Althor, I was expecting rands mother, I was expecting some chapters focusing on the aiel war, with the death of the king of carhieon, battles, and the like.
What we got was accepted Moraine, and Swan, becoming Aes Sadi, some bland white tower politics, the search for the dragon, a little bit of Lan, then finally a showdown with some dark friends.
In all honesty I was expecting the last chapter, or the epilogue to be the dragons birth.
Overall it was good but I feel like it could have been more.

love the series.
This is a great series and the narrators did an excellent job, but I can help thinking Graphic Audio would have made it even better.

Headline not optional
Good book, but was expecting more. Book is aimed at people who haven't read the series, so you really won't learn anything new.

Difficult
I struggled to finish it, but that's just because I don't like politics. Trust me, it's really good.
