One of me favorite books, I have read the series several times and listened to this several times. I hope whoever gets this will enjoy it as much as I have.

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 birth returns again. In the Third Age, and Age of Prophecy when the World and Time themselves hang in the balance, a wind rises in the mountains of mist......
It is a year of strangers; of a lady; and a gleeman with his tales of heroes; and a peddler with news of the present----of war with Ghealdan, far away, and of the rishing of a false dragon----the savior whose coming, foretold and dreaded, will bring a new Breaking to the World. But the worst strangers are monsters Rand thought only legend---the bestial Trollocs, and the horrifying Halfman, whose eyeless gaze is fearless.
They want a boy on the brink of manhood, born within a span of months. They want Rand himself, or his burly, deliberate friend Perrin, or the prankster Mat.
The Dark One, imprisoned by the Creator at the moment of creation, is stirring ion Shayol Ghul. It is time for prophecies to be fulfilled. The Wheel of Time is weaving a Web the Pattern of Ages, a Web to entanble the Worle. It is a time when Time itself may die, when the Eye of the World may be blinded. What was, and what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.
