A MEMORY OF LIGHT
Book Fourteen of THE WHEEL OF TIME®
And it came to pass in those days, as it had come before and would come again, that the Dark lay heavy on the land and weighed down the hearts of men, and the green things failed, and hope died.
From Charal Drianaan te Calamon, The Cycle of the Dragon
In the Field of Merrilor the rulers of the nations gather to join behind Rand al'Thor, or to stop him from his plan to break the seals on the Dark One's prison - which may be a sign of his madness, or the last hope of humankind. Egwene, the Amyrlin Seat, leans toward the former.
In Andor, the Trollocs seize Caemlyn.

For twenty years The Wheel of Time has enthralled more than forty million readers in over thirty-two languages. A Memory of Light brings this majestic fantasy creation to its richly satisfying conclusion.
Working from notes and partials left by Robert Jordan when he died in 2007, and consulting with Jordan's widow, who edited all of Jordan's books, established fantasy writer Brandon Sanderson has recreated the vision Jordan left behind.
-From Cover Flap
This is an incredibly satisfying conclusion to the series.
There really isn't much more I can say without spoilers. If you've gotten this far you're committed, and presumeably you like the series. If so, you won't be disappointed at all by its conclusion.
I FINISHED IT.
Y'all, I finished it. This series had been so important to me for so long, and I've finished reading it, and now I don't know what to do with myself.
There were times in the last few chapters that I was on the verge of tears. I only kept them at bay because I'd have had to stop reading. Worth the wait.
The whole issue with the digital edition being delayed still leaves a bad taste in my mouth. However, I finally got to read it!
It's sad to say goodbye to so many old friends, but there were also a few laugh out loud moments. It was an ending, a fitting ending. Farewell, my friends, and good luck.
