First Snow

So we had our first snow storm today. It kinda sucked but now the waiting game is over. It snowed a good 4 inches in the space of about 6 hours, from the time I went to sleep, at 6 am this morning to when I woke up at 12 pm it had the 4 inches. Then at around 3 or 4, I think, it started snowing again. It was not fun driving to work in that.

Crossroads of Twilight by: Robert Jordan (10th in series)

This was a really good book. I really enjoyed it. All of these books are really good and I can't wait for the very last book to come out next fall.

The world and the characters stand at a crossroads, and the world approaches twilight, when the power of the Shadow grows stronger.Fleeing from Ebou Dar with the kidnapped Daughter of the Nine Moons, whom he is fated to marry, Mat Cauthon learns that he can neither keep her nor let her go, not in safety for either of them, for both the Shadow and the might of the Seanchan Empire are in deadly pursuit.Perrin Aybara seeks to free his wife, Faile, a captive of the Shaido, but his only hope may be an alliance with the enemy.Can he remain true to his friend Rand, and to himself?For his love of Faile, Perrin is willing to sell his soul.At Tar Valon, Egwene alVere, the young Amyrlin of the rebel Aes Sedai, lays siege to the heart of Aes Sedai power, but she must win quickly, with as little bloodshed as possible, for unless the Aes Sedai are reunited, only the male Ashaman will remain to defend the world against the Dark One, and nothing can hold the Ashaman themselves back from total power except the Aes Sedai and a unified White Tower.In Andor, Elayne Trakand fights for the Lion Throne that is hers by right, but enemies and Darkfriends surround her, plotting her destruction. If she fails, Andor may fall to the Shadow, and the Dragon Reborn with it.Rand alThor, the Dragon Reborn himself, has cleansed the Dark Ones taint from the male half of the True Source, and everything has changed. Yet nothing has, for only men who can channel believe that saidin is clean again, and a man who can channel is still hated and fearedeven one prophesied to save the world. Now Rand must gamble again, with himself at stake, and he cannot be sure which of his allies are really enemies.

Finals Week

So it is finals week now. I am not looking forward to it. I have 5 finals to take. Tomorrow, I have my Accounting 2010 final at 11:30 am. On Tuesday I have my Biological Anthropology Final at 9:30 am. On Wednesday I have nothing. On Thursday I have my Calculus final. I am also going to take my Business Law and Creative Arts finals. Those are both online. I will update you when I have my final grades for my classes because I know you all want to know how I am doing.

Winter's Heart by: Robert Jordan (9th in series)

I really liked this book. They all keep getting better and better. I can't wait to see where the next book takes me.

Perrin Aybara and his followers pursue the Shaido Aiel who kidnapped his wife, Faile Bashere.
Elayne Trakand attempts to solidify her grip on the Lion Throne and put down rebellious nobles.
Mat Cauthon, making his return to the series after his absence in the previous book, is trapped in the city of Ebou Dar in Altara, which is under Seanchan occupation. He plans his escape, but in the end, his plans are disrupted by the interference of a Seanchan noblewoman named Tuon, who is revealed as the Daughter of the Nine Moons, heir to the Seanchan Crystal Throne. Mat, having heard a prophecy about him marrying the Daughter of the Nine Moons, kidnaps Tuon instead of tying her up and leaving her behind.



Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, is bonded as a Warder by Elayne Trakand, Aviendha, and Min Farshaw. He hunts down Asha'man traitors in Far Madding and kills most of them. Lan also kills Toram Riatin in a duel. Caught by guards, he is imprisoned for a short time but is set free by Cadsuane and the other Aes Sedai who followed him. Rand and Nynaeve al'Meara Travel to Shadar Logoth. There, defended by Cadsuane Melaidhrin's Aes Sedai and loyal Asha'man against the Forsaken, Rand and Nynaeve link and use the Choedan Kal to cleanse saidin of the Dark One's taint so that men who channel will no longer go mad. Whilst using so much of the one power, the access key (or female Choedan Kal) is destroyed.

Movie: Twilight

OMG!!! I so loved this movie! I had low expectations of the movie and so because of that, it turned out way better than I thought it would. I was so excited the whole time. You can ask Spencer, he's the one that took me. I would get really excited because I knew what would happen next, and I would just tense up and almost stop breathing from the excitement. Spencer even thought it was a good movie. I now have to read the books over again. Although that will have to wait until I finish the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan, but as soon as I'm done withthat, I'm reading the Twilight series again. I give this 5 stars.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!

Well Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I spent my Thanksgiving at the Barlow house. It was all chaotic and fun. I had to work the night before Thanksgiving and so couldn't go early to the Barlow house. Myself and my friend Stevie went up to Herriman. We drove her car, which was a lot smarter than taking my car because my car is a piece of junk that would have had a hard time getting down there. When we got to the Herriman house, it was crazy and loud and chaotic. Now Stevie comes from Chicago, IL and has never been around a lot of people in one house. So she was a little overwhelmed. There was so much going that even I get a little overwhelmed at times, and I experience the craziness once a year, at least.

I think the headcount for Thanksgving dinner was about 52 people there, give or take a person or two. We actually got to eat in the house this year. In the Riverton house, they always had to eat in the garage. So after eating dinner, we played games. Stevie ended up needing to come back up to Logan to work at 6 am the day after Thanksgiving. So Grandpa Barlow convinced me to stay the night. I stayed the night and had fun talking with my Grandpa and with Mother Ann. The next day, I talked with Mother Ann and Dezirae and Lydia. While we are talking, Grandpa Barlow, Carl (Heather's husband), Ryan (Carl's brother), and a couple of the other uncles are all down in the basement. They were down there because Grandpa needed to take out a wall down there and so they needed to replace one of the wooden support beams holding up the main floor with a steel support beam. So Ann, Dezirae, Lydia and I are all talking when Ryan and Heather come running up the stairs telling us to get off the kitchen floor, so we rush into the sitting room.

Now the whole time we were talking we could feel the floor bouncing up and down with the hits the guys downstairs were making. It was kinda scary. So we get over into the sitting room and finished talking. Ryan and Heather finally come back up and tell us everything was alright. I finally called Stevie to see when she was going to pick me up and she could only meet me halfway. So had James give me a ride down to Ogden and Stevie picked me up and that was my Thanksgiving day.

I will get pictures up as soon as I get them off of Stevie's camera.

Movie: Madagascar 2

Spencer and I went and saw Madagascar 2. It was a really cute movie and it was funny, but I like the story line of the first one. I didn't really like how Gloria and Melman hooked up, it was dumb and almost ruined the movie for me. But it was still a good movie. I give it 4 stars.

Movie: Quantum of Solace

Spencer and I went and saw Quantum of Solace, the new James Bond movie. I thought it was a really good movie, but I think I liked the first one better. It was still good though. I'll give it 4 stars.

African Children's Choir

So I got to see the African Children's choir today and omg was it good. I definitely cried at times during the performance. It is just heartbreaking thinking of what these children have gone through. All of the children who performed tonight are between the age of 8-10. They have seen and lived what they should not have. Many don't know their parents. At the very end of the performance, they tell the audience what they want to be when they grow up. There were quite a few teachers, lawyers, pilots, a doctor, a judge, a bank manager, a singer, and an optometrist to name a few. It was so sweet and I felt I had to do something to help out the children in Africa, so I ended up buying a $15 stuffed tiger that is so cute. I definitely considered spluging more on a t-shirt and some cd's but I limited myself. If anyone wants to do anything for the children in Africa, go to africanchildrenschoir.com and you can help donate to this worthy cause.

In 1978 Human Rights Worker Ray Barnett arrived in Uganda to research a book about the brutal years of dictatorship and terror that had devastated this beautiful country. What he found would change his life. A few years later, in 1984 he heard a BBC news report that told of 150,000 children starving to death in northern Uganda. And so began the journey that would start the formation of the African Children's Choir. Through their voice and their music, the children of the Choir are taking Africa to the rest of the world. They are victims of a terrible pandemic, but they are also the promise and future of Africa. For over 21 years, the African Children's Choir has been performing throughout North America and the United Kingdom.

Each year a new choir is selected from children who are not only musical, but who also come from some of Africa's most desperate villages. Many have lost one or both parents to poverty or disease. The children sing on behalf of their brothers, their sisters, their friends, and their village. Their songs bring great joy to those who hear them, but through their songs they are asking for help.

A Crown of Swords by: Robert Jordan (7th in series)

I really enjoyed this story. I don't know why I never really finished this series before. I think it is so interesting now. Sure there are the boring parts you skim over but it is a great series.

Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, prepares to attack the Forsaken Sammael in Illian while enjoying life with his lover, Min Farshaw, and attempting to quell the rebellion by nobles in Cairhien, during which Padan Fain severely injures him with the Shadar Logoth dagger. After recovering, Rand al'Thor, accompanied by Asha'man, attacks Illian and defeats Sammael in a duel of the One Power in Shadar Logoth. Rand then takes the crown of Illian, formerly the Laurel Crown, but now called the Crown of Swords.
Egwene al'Vere and Siuan Sanche attempt to manipulate the Aes Sedai rebels in Salidar to move against Elaida's Aes Sedai in the White Tower in Tar Valon. After Egwene and Siuan investigate Siuan's suspicions about Myrelle, Egwene exploits the transfer of Lan's Warder bond from Moiraine to Myrelle in order to force Myrelle and Nisao to swear fealty to her.
In the city of Ebou Dar in Altara, Elayne Trakand, Nynaeve al'Meara, and Mat Cauthon search for a ter'angreal, the Bowl of the Winds, to break the unnatural heat brought on by the Dark One's manipulation of climate. They find it and enlist the help of the Kin and the Atha'an Miere, or Sea Folk. They also confront a Gholam. Mat is left behind after searching for Olver, and is caught in the fighting as the Seanchan invade Ebou Dar.

Spencer Update

Ok so here is the news on what is going on with his shoulder.

Now I don't remember if I told you what is specifically wrong so I'll just say it again. He has a 3rd degree AC Separation in his shoulder. Which basically means he tore a bunch of stuff in his shoulder. We went and talked to a doctor on Tues, Nov 4 (I think) and the doctor said that Spencer had two options. He could either have surgery and be out for about 3 mos, or he could just leave it alone and let it heal by itself and be back playing hockey in 4-6 weeks. If you haven't guessed it he is leaving it alone.

So he has been on Percocet constantly to help with the pain until yesterday when his prescription ran out. So he has been feeling better but he is definitely ready for his shoulder to be fixed and to stop hurting.

School Performances

Ok, so I have decided to just put all of my school performances that I have been to so far onto one blog. It is easier this way for me. So here goes:

Nunsense:
I went and saw Nunsense on September 20. Nunsense begins when the Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook, SisterJulia, Child of God, has accidentally poisoned 52 of the sisters, and they are in dire need of funds for the burials. The sister decide that the best way to raise the money is to put on a variety shwo, so they take over the school auditorium, which is currently set up for the eighth grade production of "Grease." Here we meet Reverend Mother Regina, a former circus performer; Sister Mary Hubert, the Mistress of Novices; a streetwise nun from Brooklyn named Sister Robert Anne; Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is a wannabe ballerina; and the delightfully wacky Sister Mary Amnesia, the nun who lost her memory when a crucifix fell on her head.
This was a really funny play. I really liked it.

East Village Opera Company:
I went and saw the E.V.O.C. on September 23. The E.V.O.C. is a rock band that sings opera. They have toured the world with a unique live show, combining a seemingly incongruous classical string section with a powerhouse rock band. In a rare feat not many artists can claim, E.V.O.C. headlines the world in both eclectic rock clubs as well as some of the most prestigious classical concert halls.
I really liked the E.V.O.C. I am totally into stuff like that. The only thing is that the sound was off and so I had a hard time hearing the singers. Because of that, I fell asleep for about 20 min near the end. But it was still good.

The Fry Street Quartet:
I went and saw the Fry Street Quartet on October 10. They are a bunch of teachers at the University who are a musical group. They are really weird looking in the way they moved and everything. They played all 17 of Beethoven's string quartets over the space of 6 nights. I slept through the entire first half of the performance and was awake the second half. I was super tired and the classical music lulled me to sleep.

The TAIKOPROJECT:
I went and saw the TAIKOPROJECT on October 30. The TAIKOPROJECT is an ensemble of premiere taiko drummers dedicated to promoting and advancing the American art of taiko. Through public performances, education, and outreach activities, TAIKOPROJECT is committed to preserving taiko as a dynamic element of Japanese American culture and heritage. In addition to maintaining taiko as a community-based tradition, TAIKOPROJECT also incorporates unconventional and innovative concepts to expand artistic boundaries. Through these values, TAIKOPROJECT seeks not only to entertain audiences, but also to inform them about the history and integrity of taiko as an evolving art form.
They were really good, I was very excited to see them. I remember seeing Taiko when I lived in Japan. People would come and perform at my elementary school.

Canada's Royal Winnipeg Ballet:
I went and saw the Ballet perform Carmina Burana. Set to Carl Orff’s popular cantata, Carmina Burana: the Ballet takes its inspiration from a group of sacred and secular medieval poems celebrating the struggle of men and women against fate. The ballet depicts the story of 13th century minstrels who abandon their beliefs in favor of life’s pleasures. The action takes place in the fertile imagination of a young monk, who instead of writing "Ave Maria" in the margins of his prayer book, finds himself writing "Hail Venus." The classical composition is given a modern interpretation through sensual choreography, colorful costumes and minimalist set decoration.
This was really good. My favorite part of the ballet was the very beginning and the very end. They performed to the song "Oh, Fortuna". The dancing was really good.

It's been awhile.

Ok, so I know it's been awhile since I have posted on here. It's been a little hectic lately. A lot has happened and so I will update this while I can, but bear with me.

Not Good!

Ok, so on Saturday night, November 1, Spencer and I went to watch the USU hockey game. The Aggies won 14-2, I think, I don't remember the exact score but we creamed them. We played Utah Valley University. After the USU game, Spencer had a Men's League game. So he was my ride and so I stayed to watch him. It is only like 5-7 minutes into the game when I looked up and i saw Spencer leaning down to get the puck and his skate lost the edge. So he fell onto his stomach. He blocks the shot by the oppposing team, and he keeps sliding and just slams into the boards.



I was watching and as soon as he hit, I just knew something was wrong. I just had a feeling in my gut. When Spencer hit, all the impact went into his shoulder. When he got up, he saw the puck at his feet and swung at it. When he swung, he felt and heard a loud pop coming from his shoulder. He knew something was wrong and so went to the bench. (Now, you have to remember that I am watching all of this with a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach and worry on my face.) I am watching as he sits on the bench and then watching John (manager of the ice rink and a coach for the USU team) pull off Spencer's jersey. I am watching as Spencer and John leave the rink and go back to the lockers. As soon as he was off the ice, I gathered my blanket and purse and go to see what happened and they had disappeared into one of the lockers.



So I am sitting in the stands waiting to know what happened. John finally comes back out and waves me down. I get down to him and he tells me Spencer hurt his shoulder and I need to take him to the E.R. As he is telling me this my stomach just drops lower and lower. So I drive Spencer's jeep to the hospital and I am not wanting to go the speed limit. I didn't want to go fast over any bumps in the road and jar his shoulder. So I'm going at like 25 mph until Spencer just tells me to speed up so we get to the hospital before he passes out. So I start to freak, I am on the verge of tears with worry. It sucked.



So we finally get to the hospital. I had pulled into the drop off area the wrong way, I wasn't even paying attention, all I wanted to to do was get him in there. So he heads into the E.R. while I park the jeep. When I get into the waiting room with him, they have us wait like 10-15 min before they will admit him into a room. Then once we get into the room, it was another 10-15 min before they took him to get x-rayed. While he was getting x-rayed I'm just chilling in his room with nothing to do except worry.



When he finally gets back to the room, we had to wait another 10 min before the doctor came and talked to us. When the doctor came, he told us that Spencer had separated his shoulder and that Spencer had a 3rd degree AC separation. So there were two treatment options, 1) get surgery; 2) let it heal without surgery. But the doctor in the E.R. wouldn't tell us more than that, we had to see an Orthopedic surgeon about that. So the doctor put Spencer in a sling, gave him some drugs and gave him the name of an Orthopedic surgeon.



Now Spencer has been on Percocet for the last, almost week now. The doctors in the E.R. only gave him 16 pills, that was only enough until Tuesday morning. Spencer didn't see the Orthopedic surgeon until Wednesday afternoon. He didn't want to go a day and a half without any pain pills. So we drove to the E.R. to see if they would give him some more drugs, they wouldn't. Then he went to the hockey doctor to see if he would. The hockey doctor wasn't there. Then we went to see the Orthopedic surgeon to see if they would, and they wouldn't. Then Spencer got a call to say that the hockey doctor got the message and wrote out a perscription for more Percocet.



Ugh! This has been hectic. I'll keep you posted on what is going on.

Movie: Max Payne

This was a good movie. I had not much of an idea of what the movie was going to be about. All I knew was it was based off of a video game. It was good and the visual effects of the Valkyr drug hallucination give it a whole different twist from a regular good cop/bad cop movie.

Max Payne, a cop in the NYPD, returns home one day to find his wife and baby daughter murdered at the hands of drug addicts, high on a designer drug called Valkyr. After 3 years of working on the case, Max and his best friend Alex go undercover to bust a V-deal. However, things go wrong: Alex is suddenly killed, and Max is framed for his murder. Hunted by the cops and driven by determination to avenge his family, Max Payne sets out to uncover the truths behind his family's murder.

Lord of Chaos by: Robert Jordan (6th in series)

This was such a good book!!! By the end of the book I was shaking from the excitement from the book. It was so good.

While the armies of Rand al'Thor, a farm boy cast by destiny into the world-changing role of the Dragon Reborn, continue their progress toward the Last Battle against the forces of the Dark One, other powers seek to exert control over the reluctant hero. Panoramic in concept, yet always focusing on the individuals whose actions make up the unfolding drama, the complex interweaving of plots and counterplots continues to gain momentum.

Personal Demon by: Kelley Armstrong (8th in series)

This was such a good book!!! Oh my gosh was it good. There is one point in this book where I was just frozen in shock. I could not believe what I was reading. Oh the twists and turns and mysteries of this book.

Tabloid reporter Hope Adams appears to live the life of an ordinary working girl. But in addition to possesing the beauty of a Bollywood princess, Hope has other unique traits. For she is a half demon--a human fathered by a demon. And she's inherited a hunger for chaos. Naturally, when she's chosen by a very dangerous group for a very dangerous mission that will take her through Miami's hot spots, she jumps at the chance. But Hope is a little too good at this job. And soon she's in a little too deep. To save herself, she'll have to unleash her most primal instincts--and open herself, mind and body, to everything she most fears...and desires.

Beautiful Pictures

Now I don't remember when I took these pictures. But I thought they were really beautiful.

San Jose Sharks vs. L.A. Kings

So I got to go see the San Jose Sharks and the L.A. Kings play on Sunday. It was an ok game. It was a good hockey game, but it was kinda boring. The fans were split in who they were cheering for. So the fans were not very loud or exciting. Spencer, me, Eric (Spencer's brother), and Chris (their roommate) all went to watch the game. The score was Sharks 3, L.A. 1.

Catching Up

Ok, so if you have been watching my blog lately, you will see a bunch of blogs on certain days that weren't there before then. That is because I am now catching up on my blog. Mom got on me today because I have been lazy and haven't blogged lately. So I repented and did this during work. And sorry it has been so long since I have blogged, I have been lazy, but I have also been busy. It seems like all I do is school and work. I seem to be buried in heaps of homework, especially from my accounting class and my calculus class. I enjoy accounting, I don't enjoy calculus.

The Fires of Heaven by: Robert Jordan (5th in series)

Definitely a good book. If you look between this book and the last one, you will notice that it has taken me awhile to finish the book. Not because the book wasn't good, but because I have been busy with school and work.

Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, continues his effort to unify the diverse people of a discordant world against the Dark. While the Aes Sedai, women who channel the One Power, and the Forsaken, ancient disciples of the Dark One, strive to bend him to their purposes, Rand leads the clans of the Aiel in a war of unification. Rand must try to master his powers as a man who can channel, while eluding the concomitant madness, as two groups of women attempt to come to his aid. His love, Elayne, Daughter-Heir of Andor, and Nynaeve, both Aes Sedai in training, join a circus to evade an angry sisterhood, and Siuan Sanche, former leader of the Aes Sedai now stripped of her powers, and two companions seek other rebels in an attempt to avert the final doom.

Yellowcard!!!

So I got to see Yellowcard in concert last night!!! It was totally awesome! It was unplugged, which basically means that it was all acoustic. It was really cool. There were two bands that played before Yellowcard. I don't remember who played first. It was just one guy, he was from Salt Lake, and he played one song that was just 15-30 seconds from other people's songs all combined into one. The next band was called Jason Reeves, he was ok, I don't know if I liked him or not. And then came Yellowcard. It was really cool seeing him. I have 2 pictures and 2 videos from the concert that I will put on here. I had taken like 8 videos, but only 2 actually came out, which sucks but oh well. The really neat thing about this is that I get to use the concert for extra credit for my creative arts class.

Got a New Hairdo!

So I got my hair colored blonde and got it cut again today. It is crazy to see my reflection because I am not used to seeing myself as a blonde. I will get pictures up here as soon as I can. I think it looks good.

Movie: Tropics of Thunder

A horrible movie, Spencer wanted to see this, and it was his birthday, or at least a couple of days after his birthday, so I gave in, against my better judgement, and watched it with him. It is a really retarded movie. I will only give it 1 *. That is how bad it was.

East Village Opera Company

This was really cool. The E.V.O.C. is a rock band who sings opera. They take songs from old operas from like the 1600-1700's on and they give them a rock flavor. It was really cool. Most of it was in the original language, so there was a lot of italian, french, german, and spanish songs, but they did have like 2-3 english songs. I did buy one of their cd's, and I'm glad I did. It is a great cd. I guess you could almost compare them to Il Divo or Josh Groban, but not really.

Nunsense

This is another play that I had to go to. This was actually really funny. It is about a group of nuns who are trying to raise money because their cook had accidentally killed 52 sisters by accidentally poisoning the food. It was funny because they are holding a benefit fundraiser and they run into all sorts of problems trying to raise this money. It was a musical and I loved it, especially the first act, that was the best.

High School Musical

So I am in a Creative Arts class and as a requirement of this class we have to see musical productions and stuff like that. So I had to see High School Musical, the play. It was interesting, there were a couple of songs that were not on the movie, but other than that, it was basically the same. It was ok.

The Shadow Rising by: Robert Jordan (4th in series)

A very good book, my favorite so far. I love the twists and turns and the surpises that are revealed.

The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.

Let the Dragon ride again on the winds of time.

And when the blood was sprinkled on ground where nothing could grow, the Children of the Dragon did spring up, the People of the Dragon, armed to dance with death. And he did call them forth from the wasted lands, and they did shake the world with battle.

School Has Started!

Ok so I know that I am a week late in blogging this. I have been pretty busy and kinda lazy. School started on Monday, August 25. I am taking 15 credits this semester plus an Institute class. I am also working 30 hrs a week, so I am pretty busy this semester.

Since I am sure everyone is curious, here are the classes I am taking this semester: Civilization: Creative Arts, Calculus, Accounting I, Biological Anthropology, and Business Law. My institute class is Book of Mormon: 1 Nephi thru Alma 29.

My teacher for institute is Spencer's old mission president. He is a really good teacher, I'm very excited and I think I will be learning a lot with him. I am excited about my accounting class and my creative arts classes, I think they will be interesting.

In my Creative Arts class, I have to go to different performances. So I have to see "High School Musical" and "Nunsense". They are musicals. I have to go see "East Village Opera Company" and the "Fry Street Quartet". They are concerts. I have to see "Taiko Project" which is an Asian performance that is unique to that region, I'm excited to see that. I get to see the Royal Ballet perform "Carmina Burana" and I get to hear the African Children's Choir. I am pretty excited to see these, it will be interesting.

And then as a side note, because I can't remember if I blogged this. I have a calling in my new ward. I am on the Self Reliance Committee, anybody heard of this? Me neither. Basically what the committee does is help the students here become more self reliant and to become more prepared for emergencies. What we will do is like do things for canning, help people with their 72-hr kit, ect... I haven't had anything to do yet, but I'm interested as to what we will do.

If anybody wants to know anything else about what I've been doing, just drop me a comment and I will get back to you.

The Dragon Reborn by: Robert Jordan (3rd in series)

I think these books are getting better as they go on.

The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.

Rand Al'Thor is the Dragon Reborn--able to touch the One Power, but unable to control it. Rand knows only that he must face the Dark One in a battle to the death. Ahead of him lies the next great test for... THE DRAGON REBORN
