  <default_description>Robert Jordan's bestselling Wheel of Time epic is one of the most popular fantasy series of all time for a reason. Jordan's world is rich and complex, and he's assembled an endearing, involving core of characters while mapping out an ambitious and engaging story arc.&lt;p&gt; The Age of Prophecy is a time of magic and peril, when everything hangs in the balance and one man, Rand Al'Thor, may hold the key to time's wheel. Rand is the Dragon Reborn, the living embodiment of prophecy. The Wheel of Time series tells his story, a fantastic adventure and a journey of discovery beyond compare. &lt;p&gt; This exciting gift set includes the first eight books of the Wheel of Time series: &lt;I&gt;The Eye of the World&lt;/I&gt;, &lt;I&gt;The Great Hunt&lt;/I&gt;, &lt;I&gt;The Dragon Reborn&lt;/I&gt;, &lt;I&gt;The Shadow Rising&lt;/I&gt;, &lt;I&gt;The Fires of Heaven&lt;/I&gt;, &lt;I&gt;Lord of Chaos&lt;/I&gt;, &lt;I&gt;A Crown of Swords&lt;/I&gt;, and &lt;I&gt;The Path of Daggers&lt;/I&gt;.</default_description>
