description: In Winter's Heart, the prophesied Last Battle (Tarmon Gai'don) between the Light and the Shadow is imminent. But Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, stands in the Shadow's way. Darkfriends, Shadowspawn, and the Forsaken will try to kill Rand to keep him from fighting. The forces of Light fear that Rand will go mad and cause another Breaking of the World. Male and female magic clash to dazzling effect in the colorful tapestry that the New Statesman and Society called Jordan's "entirely convincing and compelling alternative world."
