"The solid performances by Kate Reading and Michael Kramer add a new dimension to the story, especially in the way these veteran narrators breathe life into the inner thoughts of the many major players." --AudioFile magazine on Wheel of Time - Book 10 - Crossroads of Twilight

"Jordan has come to dominate the world Tolkien began to reveal..." --New York Times

"Reading and Kramer are perfect vocal counterparts to the main characters. Reading invites readers into the politics and mystery of the world of Aes Sedai. She gives Moiraine's quirks full attention and makes the most minor of characters distinct. Kramer sounds as battle-worm as Lan Mandragoran is described to be. Effective at making Lan no-nonsense, weary, and observant, Kramer adds further life to the character beyond the military prowess. Fans will not be disappointed..." --KLIATT

From America's premier fantasy writer—#1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author of CROSSROADS OF TWILIGHT—comes a prequel to The Wheel of Time Series.

For three days battle has raged in the snow around the great city of Tar Valon. In the city, a Foretelling of the future is uttered. On the slopes of Dragonmount, the immense mountain that looms over the city, a child is born, an infant prophesied to change the world. That child must be found before he can be killed by the forces of the Shadow. And Moiraine Damodred, a young Accepted soon to be raised to Aes Sedai, and Lan Mandragoran, a young soldier fighting in the battle, are set on paths that will bind their lives together. But those paths are filled with complications and dangers, for Moiraine is of the Royal House of Cairhien, whose King has just died, and Lan is considered the uncrowned king of a nation long dead, and the plots of those seeking power threaten their lives. The novella “New Spring” told a part of the story, in compressed form...the novel New Spring tells the whole story.
