La Roue du Temps tourne et les Ages naissent et meurent, laissant dans leur sillage des souvenirs destinés à devenir des légendes. C'est la Nuit de l'Hiver dans la contrée de Deux-Rivières et, en ce soir de fête, l'excitation des villageois est à son comble. C'est alors qu'arrivent trois étrangers comme le jeune Rand et ses amis d'enfance Mat et Perrin n'en avaient jamais vu : une dame noble et fascinante nommée Moiraine, son robuste compagnon et un trouvère. De quoi leur faire oublier ce cavalier sombre et sinistre aperçu dans les bois, dont la cape ne bougeait pas en plein vent... Mais, quand une horde de monstres sanguinaires déferle et met le village à feu et à sang, la mystérieuse Moiraine devine qu'ils recherchaient quelqu'un : pour les trois amis l'heure est venue de partir. Car la Roue du Temps interdit aux jeunes gens de flâner trop longtemps sur les routes du destin... Ce volume comprend la première moitié du roman L'Oil du monde, premier tome de La Roue du Temps.
This is the first book in a 15-book series and, as such, it can feel a bit overwhelming; however, The Wheel of Time is not in the top-10 ranking of most fantasy booktubers for no reason. This is proper fantasy, and feels fresh even now, many years after its original release. I’m very glad to have started this journey ☺️Reread 20/10/2024I have enjoyed this book even more on a reread. I was able to understand everything much better and really appreciate all the foreshadowing. This time I’ve mostly listened to the audiobook narrated by Rosamund Pike, and it’s truly outstanding.
OMG i forgot i had read this book and it was sooo awesome must read it again!!
