What this book is about
The thirteenth Wheel of Time novel intensifies preparations for Tarmon Gai'don as multiple storylines converge. Perrin Aybara wages war on two fronts — against the Whitecloaks in the waking world and against Slayer in the Wolf Dream — while Mat Cauthon leads a desperate rescue mission into the tower of the Aelfinn and Eelfinn. Epic battle sequences, dark prophecies, and the psychological weight of impending apocalypse define the book. The series' characteristic large-scale violence escalates considerably here.
