The anime would be based in the WOT universe, not the series of books I don't think.
I havent read winters heart yet, I am still waiting to read the 3rd and 4th books I am getting for xmas!
Here is some info on the series for people that want to know...
The best way to introduce this series is to quote Robert Jordan, the author himself:
"Imagine a world that never was. Imagine the late 17th century where gun powder is a secret of the Illuminator's Guild. Imagine Tolkien's Middle Earth without elves, no unicorns, no dragons, no hobbits, and with people who actually grow and change. Imagine a world that was destroyed 3,000 years ago by men channeling the One Power. Imagine a world where, for 3,000 years, the worst thing that anyone could imagine was a man who could channel the One Power; touch the male half of the True Source. Because he will go mad, and he will die. Before he dies he will be a madman who can touch the One Power which turns the Wheel of Time which drives the universe. So they have been hunted down for 3,000 years. The prophecy says that the Dark One will break free and enter the world. The Dark One who was bound away by the Creator at the moment of creation. The prophecy says that a boy child will be born to grow up to face the Dark One in the Last Battle. That boy child, that man, will be able to channel and he will face all of the doom that those men face. The prophecy says that he will save the world and destroy it. And that is the beginning. That will set you up to begin reading The Eye of the World."
Here is some extra stuff, this is all from
www.dragonmount.com
The driving force within this universe is called the One Power. It turns the Wheel of Time, which makes time happen and events run their course. The One Power is divided into two halves: saidar, the female half, and saidin, the male. They are alike, yet very different, working for and against each other at the same time. Certain rare people can channel the One Power and create wonders with it. Only women can touch saidar, and only men can touch saidin.
