About this listen

Now an original series starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine!

Robert Jordan’s number one New York Times best-selling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, continues as Rand al’Thor and his companions set out to retrieve a powerful magical artifact from The Dark One’s Shadowspawn in The Great Hunt.

For centuries, gleemen have told the tales of The Great Hunt of the Horn. So many tales about each of the Hunters, and so many Hunters to tell of....

Now the Horn itself is found: the Horn of Valere long thought only legend, the Horn which will raise the dead heroes of the ages.

And it is stolen.

In pursuit of the thieves, Rand al’Thor is determined to keep the Horn out of the grasp of The Dark One. But he has also learned that he is The Dragon Reborn - the Champion of Light destined to stand against the Shadow time and again. It is a duty and a destiny that requires Rand to uncover and master magical capabilities he never imagined he possessed.

Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time® has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters. The last six books in series were all instant number one New York Times best sellers, and The Eye of the World was named one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read.

Critic reviews

I’m hooked

Started with bk 1 and now I’m stuck in the wheel, Rand and the gang are up to their necks in trouble and no outcome seems good for the young adventurers. Book 3 here we go…

Amazing narrators to a great book!

Apart from the book being one of the best fantasy books I've read (and I have read many), the narrators makes listening an amazing experience! The pov shifts between several characters and the narrators excel at making each one different and unique!

An amazing read, truly.

Gripping from start to end, an emotional journey. I was awe struck by the tales climax.

Put simply... one of the greatest fantasy books I've ever read.

The journey continues...

The story returns a little time after the events of book one, Jordan begins to explore the development of the central characters here and very much opens the world up thourghout the story. You begin to fully appreciate the narrators class here as the influx of new characters brings along new voices that they both pull off beautifully.
