One of the biggest creation of Robert Jordan i.e the Wheel of Time talks about different legends and different eras. In each part of this long series we meet different heroes in different time zones. The concept of the author is that everything in the world lives on it for a specific period of time, even heroes and legends don’t live forever. Firstly the heroes or legends after dying go into the history books and then even those history books get vanished after a particular span of time.
It is the third age of which Kate Reading and Michael Kramer narrates. The age of Prophesy has finally approached the land and everything is under the shadow of doubt. It was the seals of Shayol Ghul that has kept the evil away from the land for so long and now they are weak enough to break.
One thing is clear i.e the dark forces are about to return to the land once again. Legends from the valleys now wait for the Dragon Reborn to come and handle the situation. Dark time has come on the land yet again and the heroes can just wait now. Get a copy of The Eye of the World and The Dragon Reborn also in the voice of same narrators.
These two books will help you understand things which Robert Jordan has presented here. One book of the series will leave some incomplete thoughts in your mind and to understand the concept further you got to go through at least three to four books. Different Ages and eras are discussed in these books which are united with one another through a proper channel.
