Female readers who are tried of Jordan's rape scenes & general misogyny will probably like this book much better. He only discusses beating women a few dozen times in this one. 🙄

I am a huge Robert Jordan fan, brought on by my youngest son's love for his Wheel of Time Series. While I do still love the books finished by Brandon Sanderson, I was missing the wonderfully descriptive Robert. I love the fact this is a prequel to WOT and gives an insight to a pre-Lan Moiraine, begining in the Aiel War, that we could have only imagined before. There are many familiar cheracters, and relationships, that this book has neatly wraped up giving a concrete insight to most of the speculations one had to make while reading the WOT series, and done accuratly in true cheracter that only the creator of WOT can do. If you are a WOT reader...this is a must have to complete your knowledge into the world Robert opened to us all. It is a brief 334 pages of true bliss.
I purchased this for my daughter to complete her collection of this author so this is a second hand review although she has let me know through the years how much she enjoys this author & his entire collection of this continuing saga. She had read most of them while in school & she is now re-reading them for the 3rd or 4th time & she is 31. She had worn out all 9 of the series & had never read the prequel which was written later. While talking with her on the phone she mentioned she was going to try & read them again but they were falling apart so I bought her the whole series & then found her the prequel. Since she received them she has read the first 4 so far. She reads a lot of venues from Mitchner & Hemmingway to Asimov & Edgar Rice Burroughs. For a series of books to have kept her interest for an 18 year span should say something good for the subject matter & the writer.Read full review
Book was in Excellent, nearly mint condition upon arrival to my doorstep. The story line in this fictional book is one that spans decades in a 11-book series called "Wheels of Time" by an author, Robert Jordan, now deceased, that had exceptional creativity and an amazing grasp of the English language. It is a a very interesting series. I bought this particular book to complete the full set and will gift wrap them for my daughter for Christmas. These books are her favorite since she claimed that the works of Shakespeare were taking second place when she read this series 2-3 years ago.
