Season three is based primarily on The Shadow Rising, the fourth book in Robert Jordan’s best-selling Wheel of Time novels. Prime Video describes the season this way: “The powerful Aes Sedai, Moiraine Damodred (Rosamund Pike), is tormented by her visions of the future, and Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski) struggles to fulfill his destiny as the Dragon Reborn — will he choose the Light or let the Darkness consume him? Season three will take viewers to many new regions and cities across the fictional continent of the Westlands, including the vast deserts of the Aiel Waste, the intoxicating and dangerous port city of Tanchico, and the forbidden and fog-shrouded ancient city of Rhuidean, where Rand and Moiraine will both experience life-changing revelations. Meanwhile on the other side of the world, in Rand’s small hometown of Two Rivers, his lifelong friend Perrin Aybara (Marcus Rutherford) will also embark on a personal journey, one which will change him forever.”
