  1. La Roue du Temps tourne et les Âges naissent et meurent, laissant dans leur sillage des souvenirs destinés à devenir des légendes. C’est la Nuit de l’Hiver dans la contrée de Deux-Rivières et, en ce soir de fête, l’excitation des villageois est à son comble. C’est alors qu’arrivent trois étrangers comme le jeune Rand et ses amis d’enfance Mat et Perrin n’en avaient jamais vu : une dame noble et fascinante nommée Moiraine, son robuste compagnon et un trouvère. De quoi leur faire oublier ce cavalier sombre et sinistre aperçu dans les bois, dont la cape ne bougeait pas en plein vent… Mais, quand une horde de monstres sanguinaires déferle et met le village à feu et à sang, la mystérieuse Moiraine devine qu’ils recherchaient quelqu’un : pour les trois amis l’heure est venue de partir. Car la Roue du Temps interdit aux jeunes gens de flâner trop longtemps sur les routes du destin...

  2. Le Seigneur de l'Ombre a jadis voulu conquérir la Terre, mais les Aes Sedai, maîtresses du Pouvoir Unique, l'ont repoussé. Pour se venger, il a inspiré aux vainqueurs une folle meurtrière. Quant au Dragon qui guidait les Aes Sedai, on dit qu'un jour il renaîtra pour délivrer l'univers. En attendant, les serviteurs du Ténébreux abattent leurs cartes : un peu partout éclatent les rixes et les incendies. Sur les conseils de Moiraine, une Aes Sedai, Rand et ses compagnons, traqués par un cavalier sans visage, se mettent en route vers l'Œil du Monde, dont la surface limpide est source de " saidin ". Ils y trouvent la Bannière du Dragon et le Cor de Valère, dont le son - dit la légende - fera surgir de la tombe les héros du passé. Mais Rand osera-t-il souffler dans l'instrument magique ? Selon qu'il penchera - bon gré mal gré - vers la Lumière ou les Ténèbres, c'est une légion de héros... ou une armée de démons qu'il fera sortir des entrailles de la terre. Il se sait investi d'un pouvoir capable de tout anéantir et songe à fuir loin de ceux qu'il aime.
