Synopsis "the shadow rising"

The Wheel of Time is now an original series on Prime Video, starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine! In The Shadow Rising, the fourth novel in Robert Jordan's #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time(R), Rand al'Thor now wields the sword Callandor. He is both the Champion of Light and the Dragon Reborn. Now, he seeks answers to another prophecy that lies with the warrior people known as the Aiel to put him on the path of learning how to wield the One Power. Accompanied by Moiraine Damodred, Rand arrives at the Aiel Waste and is granted permission by the Wise Ones to enter the sacred city of Rhuidean. After passing through a doorframe ter'angreal, Moiraine gains foresight while the Aiel await Rand's return, either with both arms marked by dragon symbols, validating his identity as He Who Comes With the Dawn, the Chief of Chiefs of all the Aiel--or to never emerge at all. Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time(R) 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.

Robert Jordan, pseudonym of James Oliver Rigney Jr., was a prominent American writer born in Charleston, South Carolina, on October 17, 1948. He is mainly recognized for his epic fantasy series "The Wheel of Time", which began with "The Eye of the World" in 1990. Before turning to writing, Jordan graduated in physics from The Citadel, a military college in South Carolina, and served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War.

In addition to "The Wheel of Time", Jordan wrote several novels about "Conan the Barbarian" in the 1980s, contributing to the heroic fantasy genre. After his death in 2007, author Brandon Sanderson completed the last volumes of "The Wheel of Time" based on notes left by Jordan. The series has been translated into multiple languages and has established Jordan as one of the most influential authors in contemporary fantasy literature.
