In KNIFE OF DREAMS, the dead are walking, men are dying impossible deaths, and it seems as though reality itself has become unstable: all are signs of the imminence of the Last Battle, when Rand al’Thor, the Dragon Reborn, must confront the Dark One as humanity’s only hope. But Rand dares not fight until he possesses all the surviving seals on the Dark One’s prison. And he
faces other dangers—there are those among the Forsaken who will go to any length to see him dead . . . The winds of time have become a storm, and things that everyone believed were fixed in place forever are changing before their eyes. Now Rand must ride those storm winds, or the Dark One will triumph.
I am a huge fan of Robert Jordan and the Wheel of Time series. The last book Crossroads of Twighlight however did not really advance the plot much. Knife of Dreams is back in the form of the previous top knotch story telling earlier in the series.
This book focuses largely on Perrin, Matt, and Elayne with some exciting sections about Rand. In this story one can finally begin to see the end of the series which we can only hope Jordan is well enough to complete. The book also contains an interesting twist regarding a character which was thought to have died earlier in the series. All in all a very enjoyable installment of a great series.
