Summary: repackaging
Comment: This and part 1 is merely repackaging of the 1st hard-bound book [Eye of the World]. The advertisment reads as if it is a prequel. Wrong. The publisher just figured another way to make a few more dollars. The Eye of the World and all of the remaining books of "The Wheel of Time" are outstanding. They didn't need / require this treatment!

Summary: Continuing a grand tradition
Comment: Yes, yes, I know that this is merely the second part of a book that was written more than a decade ago, but that book, "The Eye of the World", is one of the greatest works of fantasy in history, and the series which follows it isn't too shabby either. The one purpose this book, and it's counterpart, "From the Two Rivers," serves is to get people that are intimidated by the size of The Eye of the World to work up their courage and try it.
Although the storyline is reminiscient of a few hobbits we all know, the genre that the Lord of the Rings started was turned on its head witht the soryline written here. Through narrow escape after narrow escape, Rand, Mat, Perrin, and Egwene come of age in this trial by ordeal. Incredibly rich detail drips off of each page, and the climax is worthy of standig alone against any other fantasy epic.
ALthough I can't give 5 stars to a remake of another book, I heartliy endorse the book and the series.
However, can someone explain to me why Egwene, in the middle of a pitched battle with twisted trees and fierce Blightcreatures, appears to be cutting off her hair, on the cover?

Summary: A Book To Treasure
Comment: The book was about was just the continuing story of the first book. I thought that the book was really good. But, from what I've seen in the reccomendations, not a lot of people like it. The book is closly related to the Lord of the Rings series except that this novel has a lot more magic, adventure, and scenes that make you panick to death. I really reccomend this book to the people out there who have the same tastes in books like me.
My favorite person in the novel was Mat. He is one of Rand's best friends. He likes to joke around and acked silly. But, he only does it in appropriate times and he makes the readers have a laugh at the most scary part of the book of all. Mat is also very mischievious and likes to play pranks on people which comes in handy when they are fighting the Trollocs.
For those of you out there that like this novel, you will like the secound book of the eye of the world called The Great Hunt. It also picks off where the book To the Blight left off. From there on the excitment builds on and and adventure, magic, and action takes place.
