Locus reviewed it as “A great read… Some surprising new developments… A spectacular kidnapping and rescue bring this volume to a (temporarily) satisfying conclusion. With multiple characters and plotlines, the book contains several more points of view than the previous novels. The battle with the Dark One rages on, as his powers grow stronger and revives his minions that torment the land. In Cairhien, Rand is also approached by an envoy from Elaida led by Gawyn Trakand and his Younglings. The plot develops further once he receives emissaries from Salidar in Caemlyn where Rand attempts to make an accord with female mystics, Aes Sedai. The novel finds Rand al'Thor as the ruler of both Caemlyn and Cairhien alternating his time between both thrones. The book was nominated for Best Fantasy Novel in the 1995 Locus Awards. It consists of 55 chapters with 1007 pages, a prologue, and an epilogue –the first book in the series to have one. The book is the sixth in the Wheel of Time series and was preceded by the New York Times bestseller The Fires of Heaven. Lord of Chaos is an epic fantasy novel written by American author Robert Jordan and was first published and released by Tor Books on October 15, 1994.
