Since its debut in 1990, Robert Jordan's epic fantasy series has captivated millions with its expansive world, originality, and memorable characters. In the Third Age, a time of prophecy, the fate of the world hangs in the balance as legends fade into myth. Amidst a fierce three-day battle around Tar Valon, a crucial Foretelling emerges. On the slopes of Dragonmount, an infant is born, destined to change the world, but he must be found before the Shadow can strike. Moiraine Damodred, a young woman on the cusp of becoming Aes Sedai, and Lan Mandragoran, a soldier in the thick of battle, find their lives intertwined. Their journey is fraught with peril, as Moiraine hails from a royal lineage recently shaken by the king's death, while Lan is viewed as the uncrowned king of a long-lost nation. Both face threats from those who seek power for themselves. "New Spring" recounts these events in a condensed form, while "New Spring: The Novel" expands on the full story, setting the stage for the epic saga that follows. The series promises an intricate tapestry of adventure, intrigue, and the timeless struggle between light and shadow.
