La Bannière du Dragon
Le Maître en personne, Ba'alzamon, préside l'assemblée de ses fidèles : la Dernière Bataille s annonce, le jour du Retour est proche et le Ténébreux savoure d'avance l'avènement imminent de la Nuit Eternelle. L'un des compagnons - Rand, Mat ou Perrin - est le Dragon Réincarné, mais prudence ! Il peut encore se convertir à la cause de l'ombre et trahir les Aes Sedai, qu'il avait autrefois conduites à la victoire; le mieux est l'ennemi du bien, il ne faut pas jouer avec les prophéties. D'ailleurs Rand doit sa puissance au Cor de Valère et l'instrument magique disparaît dans des circonstances dramatiques. Les compagnons vont le chercher jusqu'au port de Falme, où les Seanchans, venus de l'autre rive de l'océan, ont anéanti toute résistance grâce aux terribles "sul'dams". C'est là aussi que les deux belles, Egwene et Nynaeve, victimes d'une traîtrise, sont retenues prisonnières. Rand et ses amis sont cinq pour affronter toute l'armée ennemie, bientôt rejointe par les Amis du Ténébreux. Alors, à l'assaut, et pas de quartier !

James Oliver Rigney Jr. (October 17, 1948 – September 16, 2007), known by his pen name Robert Jordan, was an American author known for his epic fantasy series *The Wheel of Time*. Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Jordan developed a passion for storytelling and served two tours in Vietnam before pursuing a writing career in 1977. Jordan is best known for *The Wheel of Time*, a sprawling fantasy saga that combines intricate world-building, complex characters, and a richly detailed magic system. The series spans fourteen books and a prequel novel, with the first volume, [*The Eye of the World*][1], published in 1990. The narrative explores themes of prophecy, destiny, and the struggle between good and evil, set in a meticulously crafted world with its own history, cultures, and languages. After Jordan's passing in 2007, fellow fantasy author [Brandon Sanderson][2] was chosen to complete the series using Jordan's extensive notes and outlines. The final three books were published between 2009 and 2013, bringing the epic saga to a conclusion. Jordan was one of several writers who contributed to the *Conan the Barbarian* series, with his works considered among the best by fans. He wrote seven Conan novels, and compiled a well-known Conan Chronology. In addition to his fantasy writing, Jordan used various pseudonyms for different genres: Reagan O'Neal for historical novels set during the American Revolution, Jackson O'Reilly for a western novel, and Chang Lung for his dance and theater criticism. Jordan's ability to create immersive worlds and compelling characters has earned him a dedicated fan base and numerous accolades. His work on *The Wheel of Time* series has sold over 90 million copies worldwide and was adapted into a television series by Amazon Prime Video in 2021. His favorite authors included: [Robert A. Heinlein][7], [John D. MacDonald][8], [Louis L'Amour][9], [Jane Austen][10], [Charles Dickens][11], [Mark Twain][12], and [Montaigne][13]. Fantasy authors he enjoyed included: [Tad Williams][14], [Robert Holdstock][15], [Raymond E. Feist][16], [Janny Wurts][17], [Barry Hughart][18], and [C. S. Friedman][19].
