The Great Hunt is Book 2 of The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan.
This book starts with a hunt for the Horn of Valere, a horn which is said has the ability to call ancient heros from the grave, which has been stolen by Dark friends (people who have sworn their lives to the Dark Lord). There is also a theft of a Dagger which if not found will kill Mat.
This book follows all of the individuals we met in Book 1, as they continue their journeys towards their destinies.
Egwene is taken by the Sanchean, as a “leashed one” where she learns she has a strong connection with Earth & Fire which are the weakest elements for women who can channel.
One of our young men is proclaimed The Dragon Reborn. The man destined to save the world, and break it, a man who is destined to go crazy.
Very well writen, even with the few dry spots along the way. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys fantasy. As before I recommend you read prior to reading this book, A New Spring followed by The Eye of the World.
