The Wheel of Time is broadly recognized as a cornerstone of the fantasy genre, lauded for its intricate world-building, profound metaphysical themes, and its distinctive approach to societal norms, setting it apart from its contemporaries.

Robert Jordan initiated The Wheel of Time series, authoring 12 of its 15 novels between 1990 and 2005. Following his passing in 2007, Brandon Sanderson (known for Stormlight Archive and Mistborn Saga) completed the final three books using Jordan`s extensive notes. The series also saw an adaptation into a Prime Video series, which ran for 24 episodes over three seasons before its cancellation by Amazon in May.

The Wheel of Time Hardcover Editions Feature Nostalgic Cover Art

While the paperback box sets present an economical entry point into the series—particularly with the first set costing about four dollars per book—it`s worth noting that The Wheel of Time includes several substantial volumes. For instance, the hardcover edition of Book 1, The Eye of the World, is nearly 700 pages, and most books in the series exceed 600 pages, with Book 14, A Memory of Light, reaching 912 pages in hardcover. Budget-friendly mass market paperbacks often feature smaller fonts, thinner paper, and less robust bindings. In contrast, hardcover or trade paperback editions typically provide a more comfortable reading experience and are more durable over time.

For current fans or collectors of classic fantasy, all 15 Wheel of Time books remain available in hardcover, featuring their original cover and jacket designs—a treat for enthusiasts. Amazon frequently offers these hardcovers significantly below their retail price, though a single hardcover often matches or exceeds the cost of an entire paperback box set.

Beyond its original design, The Eye of the World is also offered in a 30th Anniversary Edition for $20 (down from $43). While its cover differs from the standard series, this special edition boasts four full-color endpaper maps, a ribbon bookmark, a striking new dust jacket, and the iconic snake-wheel emblem embossed on the cover. It also includes an introduction by Brandon Sanderson.

As another option, consider the trade paperback editions of The Wheel of Time for a more budget-friendly purchase. Although their page dimensions are slightly smaller than hardcovers, the overall reading experience is quite comparable. Many trade paperbacks are priced around $15, with some even lower—for example, The Eye of the World is just $9 (previously $19) in paperback. The main drawback is the absence of the fully illustrated covers found on other editions.

For those who have already journeyed through the series and wish to delve deeper into Jordan`s captivating fantasy realm, The Wheel of Time Companion offers a wealth of lore, character histories, and even details on elements removed during the series` creation. Another recommended title is The World of Robert Jordan`s The Wheel of Time, which serves as both a helpful companion guide with background information and an art book featuring over 80 paintings.
