The Gathering Storm

Author: Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson

As a lifelong Wheel of Time fan, I was both excited and apprehensive about “The Gathering Storm.” Could Sanderson do justice to Jordan’s legacy? I needn’t have worried. This book reignited my passion for the series, seamlessly blending Jordan’s intricate world-building with Sanderson’s knack for pacing. The character arcs, especially Rand’s descent into darkness, are masterfully handled. It’s a bittersweet read, knowing it’s partly Jordan’s final work, but also a triumphant continuation of his epic vision.

The sun is still there. It is only the clouds that are in the way.
