The Fires of Heaven

The Girl on the Train, The Martian, Ready Player One, 1984

Robert Jordan’s writing style is characterized by its dense descriptive passages, its intricate plotting, and its often slow pacing. Jordan often employs long sentences with many clauses, and his paragraphs are often several pages long. This can make his writing difficult to follow, but it also creates a richly detailed world for the reader.

The Fires of Heaven is the fifth book in The Wheel of Time series. It was published in 1993.

The Wheel of Time series is Robert Jordan’s magnum opus, and it is recommended that listeners start with that series. However, Jordan also wrote a number of other stand-alone novels and short stories that are worth checking out. These include The Eye of the World, The Great Hunt, The Dragon Reborn, The Shadow Rising, The Fires of Heaven, Lord of Chaos, A Crown of Swords, The Path of Daggers, Winter’s Heart, Crossroads of Twilight, Knife of Dreams, The Gathering Storm, and Towers of Midnight.
