Lord of Chaos : Book Six of 'The Wheel of Time'

The Wheel of Time ® is a PBS Great American Read Selection! Now in development for TV!

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 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.

On the slopes of Shayol Ghul, the Myrddraal swords are forged, and the sky is not the sky of this world;

In Salidar the White Tower in exile prepares an embassy to Caemlyn, where Rand Al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, holds the throne--and where an unexpected visitor may change the world....

In Emond's Field, Perrin Goldeneyes, Lord of the Two Rivers, feels the pull of ta'veren to ta'veren and prepares to march...

Morgase of Caemlyn finds a most unexpected, and quite unwelcome, ally....And south lies Illian, where Sammael holds sway...

Praise for The Wheel of Time


“The Wheel of Time [is] rapidly becoming the definitive American fantasy saga. It is a fantasy tale seldom equaled and still less often surpassed in English.” – Chicago Sun-Times


“Jordan’s multi-volume epic [is] a feast for fantasy aficionados.” – Library Journal


“The most ambitious American fantasy saga… [may] also be the finest.” – Booklist


“For those who like to keep themselves in a fantasy world, it’s hard to beat the complex, detailed world created here.” – Locus


Book Six: Lord of Chaos


“Jordan’s talent for sustaining the difficult combination of suspense and resolution, so necessary in a multi-volume series such as this one, is nothing short of remarkable.” – Library Journal


“A great read… Some surprising new developments… A spectacular kidnapping and rescue bring this volume to a (temporarily) satisfying conclusion. This series is so complex, I Can’t recommend starting anywhere but at the beginning, but the volumes only get richer as they go along.” – Locus
