Robert Jordan

Robert Jordan (nome real James Oliver Rigney Jr.) foi um escritor norte‑americano nascido em 17 de outubro de 1948, em Charleston, Carolina do Sul. Ele se tornou mundialmente conhecido como o criador da série de fantasia épica A Roda do Tempo (The Wheel of Time), uma das obras mais influentes do gênero.
Antes de se dedicar à escrita, Jordan serviu no Exército dos EUA durante a Guerra do Vietnã, experiência que influenciou seu interesse por história militar. Após retornar, formou‑se em Física pela academia militar The Citadel e trabalhou como engenheiro nuclear.
Jordan começou sua carreira literária escrevendo romances históricos e livros de Conan, o Bárbaro, até iniciar The Eye of the World em 1984. O primeiro volume foi publicado em 1990, dando início a uma saga que se tornaria um fenômeno global, marcada por um mundo vasto, mitologia complexa e centenas de personagens.
Em 2006, Jordan foi diagnosticado com amiloidose cardíaca, uma doença rara. Mesmo assim, continuou trabalhando no final da série até sua morte em 16 de setembro de 2007. Ele deixou extensas notas para que sua esposa e editora, Harriet McDougal, escolhesse alguém para concluir a obra — o escolhido foi Brandon Sanderson, que finalizou os três últimos livros.
Hoje, Jordan é lembrado como um dos grandes nomes da fantasia moderna, com um legado que continua vivo em livros, jogos, quadrinhos e na adaptação televisiva da Amazon.
