The Wheel of Time: Origins

Enjoyed watching this only to get to the end of episode 8, to find that the end of the story is a long long way away!

Totally ruins it, as we are left in a situation where it's, will there be another series or not.

Looks like another series of books to read.

14 books OMG!

The Wheel of Time Origins was Incredibly Good and In-line with The Wheel of Time books by Robert Jordan.

I enjoyed every minute of watching this.

Unlike the 8 Part Series which 3/4 of it was the Director / Producers / Screenplay Writers LGT, Girl-Power, Misconstrued re-imaging of Robert Jordan's Masterpiece and I found myself having to shut the final episode off after 10 minutes because of how badly they twisted the end of Book One!

I would suggest all of you who are readers and lovers of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of time to watch this and not to watch the Amazon 8 part series because that was in no way in keeping with the Books!

Or Give the Series the rightly bad ratings it deserved in order to force Amazon to Produce an ACTUAL Presentation of The Wheel of Time!

I hope they don't make the mistake to stop another great production. It's really good! The visuals, the acting, the storyline. Hope to see more of the wheel of time, time travel, space travel, star gate concept.

Through much confusion and digging I was finally able to watch these historical shorts for the FIRST Season! They are are a set of animated short stories to give some background of the story. I liked them! As other comments have said many are confusing these shorts with the actual episodes so there is some confusion. I really like the show also. I understand they have them but I have not found them. They do, however have a little "inside" under the X-Ray "Bonus Content" with clips and a background of what is going on. Super handy and informative.

How to watch: I have a Sony Smart TV - I was unable to access the shorts in the Prime app on my tv - Sorry folks. I am not sure if this is for all smart TVs or if it has something to do with the Google Store app or Sony. But it does has something great under X-Ray and that is little bios under "Characters". This gives you great back ground info something like what you get from video game characters. There is other great "Bonus Content" - good to check out and a QR link to the Amazon Wheel of Time Store for buying of goodies.

IPhone Amazon App - Yes!! In S1 each episode has a short - Go to the X-Ray feature and then go to "Bonus Content" - then "Origin Stories". Each episode has them cumulative so episode 8 has all of them.

Amazon Kindle Fire tablets Amazon Video App: Of course the EASIEST PLACE TO WATCH!🤣🤣 Well it is an "Amazon Original" so go figure. Pretty much the same thing - X-Ray then Bonus Content and violá - it's at the top of the page for easy access!! There are lots of little goodies under "Explore". I am just now finding this after owning a Kindle for years!! 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

But if you don't mind being out of context and just want to watch them all at once, I found them on YT and on "OSTBGM OnDemand" channel you will find them as

I hope this helps others. Happy watching and FYI - you can ALWAYS read/listen to the books written by Robert Jordon. They have a prequel that gives some information that is great to know and doesn't appear in the storyline so far.

Looks like most the reviews here are for the show itself. Not the origin stories.

These origin stories really capture the feeling of the books lore.

Enjoyed these a lot more than the show and if they had this sort of story telling + narration throughout the show, (and actually stuck to the main story) then it would have been a lot better.
