White Cloaks, a red wedding and an ancient relic? Things are only getting warmed up in The Wheel of Time’s newest installment. Prime Video’s lavish TV adaptation of Robert Jordan’s epic fantasy novel series is back, with season 3 promising more power struggles, new alliances and unpredictable villains.
While production on its first season was hampered by the pandemic and fanbase-dividing diversions from the intricate plot lines of Jordan’s books, The Wheel of Time has been a big hit, nestling in nicely alongside Amazon’s other mega-budget show The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
Season 3 drops us back into the story Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski) and his journey from a simple shepherd to a destined hero known as the Dragon Reborn. The threats against Rand and his allies of The Light are multiplying.
The White Tower, home of the all-female order of magic users, the Aes Sedai, stands divided, while the Black Ajah — rogue Aes Sedai sworn to the Dark One — operates unchecked. Meanwhile, Lanfear, a Forsaken with a deep past with Rand, is set to force a defining choice between Light and Dark for the show’s protagonist.
