Plot
Moiraine, an Aes Sedai from the White Tower, is in search of a reincarnated hero destined to save, or possibly destroy, the world. With her Warder bodyguard, Lan, she dedicates her life to finding and protecting this hero, following rumors and obscure clues wherever they may lead. When their travels bring them to a sleepy rural town called the Two Rivers, they discover not one, but five ta'veren, and any of them could be the prophesied Dragon Reborn. They're not the only ones searching, though, and the looming threat of the Dark One and his minions forces Moiraine, Lan, and their new companions on a life-and-death journey to uncover the truth, fight against evil, and -- against all odds -- prevent a second Breaking of the World.
