ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Shadow Rising" by Robert Jordan is a fantasy novel that delves into a world where the battle between light and darkness is ever-present. The story follows the journey of Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, as he grapples with his destiny and the immense power he wields. He is surrounded by allies and enemies who are trying to use him for their own purposes. The narrative also focuses on Perrin Aybara, Nynaeve al'Meara and Elayne Trakand as they confront their own challenges and fight against the Shadow. They journey to distant cities, battle dark forces, and face personal trials that test the limits of their courage and determination. The novel explores themes of prophecy, destiny, and free will, as well as the struggle for power and the consequences of choices made. It introduces the concept of Tel'aran'rhiod, or the World of Dreams, which is a dangerous space that many of the characters learn to use. The fate of the world and its people hangs in the balance as the heroes must confront their destinies.
