The Wheel of Time is now an original series on Prime Video, starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine!

In The Path of Daggers, the eighth novel in Robert Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, Rand al'Thor engages in battle wearing the Crown of Swords and wielding Callandor against a force unprepared for the wrath of the Dragon Reborn.

The Seanchan invaders are heading for Illian—and Rand's army of Asha'man soldiers. When they meet in battle, some of the Asha'man are afflicted by madness, unable to control their channeling and unleashing raw power.

The madness extends to Rand himself. He has been hearing the voice of a man believed to have been the previous Dragon Reborn. Besieged by visions and debilitated whenever he uses the One Power, Rand chooses to attack the Seanchan with Callandor. The sword consumes him with a berserker rage, felling ally and enemy alike. And when he regains his senses, Rand finds himself less trusted by those who were once the most loyal.

Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time® by Robert Jordan has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters. The last six books in series were all instant #1 New York Times bestsellers, and The Eye of the World was named one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read.

“The Path of Daggers audio book is a captivating production that will engage the imagination of the listener and transport them to a far away place. Without doubt The Path of Daggers audio book is a must have for all fans of Jordan's work, as well as those who enjoy fantasy genre books in general.” —Article Dashboard

“Robert Jordan has come to dominate the world Tolkien began to reveal....The battle scenes have the breathless urgency of firsthand experience, and the...evil laced into the forces of good, the dangers latent in any promised salvation, the sense of the unavoidable onslaught of unpredictable events bear the marks of American national experience during the last three decades.” —The New York Times on The Wheel of Time

The story in itself is weaker than the other books of the series, so I would give it a 3 on average. About 2/3 of it was boring and felt like fluff. 1/3 was good and definitely worth the time, but that’s just my personal opinion.

The performance by Michael Kramer and Kate Reading is good as usual but unfortunately there isn’t an "audio editing" option, otherwise I would have rated performance higher.
Some of the issues:
- Mechanical Stuttering and glitches
- Sound cutting then repeating itself several times
- Chapters not being in their right place and being labeled as the wrong chapter
- Some words being completely skipped over

It’s a shame Audible would put something like that for sale without fixing it. A big disappointment in my opinion. If this wasn’t so glaring and persistent throughout the book it would be a solid 3. Until it’s fixed, I can’t give a better review.

If you’re invested in the series you can’t really avoid listening to this and as I said the story is not the worst, although it can drag on. I’d say go for it if you can get it for a credit but definitely don’t buy this at full price.

Very poor audio editing makes this a hard listen
