Book Review: The Great Hunt

The Great Hunt by Robert Jordan

This is book two in the Eye of the World fantasy series I promised myself I would reread this year.

Okay, so it's October and I just finished book 2 of 11, but whatever.

This series is pretty much all I read in college between classes, and I feel a blend of sentimentality and excitement in rereading them - seeing some of the plot lines beginning to twist, and knowing more about the outcome of certain characters. Though a very LONG series (this is one of the short books, at 700 pages), the depth and development, and lots of detail, make it a great one.

My friend Eric just alerted me to Jordan's health woes, however. :-(

If you want to try a fantasy series, and only one, try this one.
