"Jordan has come to dominate the world Tolkien began to reveal." --The New York Times on The Wheel of Time(R) series

Explore never-before-seen insights into the Wheel of Time, including:
- A brand-new, redrawn world map by Ellisa Mitchell using change requests discovered in Robert Jordan's unpublished notes
- An alternate scene from an early draft of The Eye of the World
- The long-awaited backstory of Nakomi
- 8 page, full color photo insert

Take a deep dive into the real-world history and mythology that inspired the world of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time(R). Origins of The Wheel of Time is written by Michael Livingston, Secretary-General of the United States Commission on Military History and professor of medieval literature at The Citadel, with a Foreword by Harriet McDougal, Robert Jordan's editor, widow, and executor of his estate.

This companion to the internationally bestselling series delves into the creation of Robert Jordan's masterpiece, drawing from interviews and an unprecedented examination of his unpublished notes. Michael Livingston tells the behind-the-scenes story of who Jordan was, how he worked, and why he holds such an important place in modern literature.

The second part of the book is a glossary to the "real world" in The Wheel of Time. King Arthur is in The Wheel of Time. Merlin, too. But so are Alexander the Great and the Apollo Space Program, the Norse gods and Napoleon's most famous victory--and so much more.

Origins of The Wheel of Time provides exciting knowledge and insights to both new and longtime fans looking to either expand their understanding of the series or unearth the real-life influences that Jordan utilized in his world building--all in one, accessible text.

A little thin but very cozy and comfortable, soft fabric
Size: Large, Color: Navy
Thin but super soft and extremely comfortable. I would have liked the fabric to be a tad bit thicker, thus the four stars instead of 5. I wore this with a denim blazer. It is a beautiful navy. I think I will order a size larger than normal and maybe then the thinner fabric won't be such an issue. Nice sleeve length, not too clingy.

Fit Comfort and no high slits which spoil long dresses
Size: X-Large, Color: Dark Green
Why such high slits? Why 2 splits? Always have to sew them up for more coverage and modesty, especially when seated. The manufacturer/seller could appeal to more, and all ages of customers considering this dress purchase, if not for these too long slits either side.

Cute but clingy
Size: X-Large, Color: Coral Orange
The dress is bright orange which I love. It is cute, very plain, true to size... but sadly not for me because the material is clingy and shows all my "chubby rolls". I'm returning it.
