The Great Hunt: Book Two of 'The Wheel of Time' ( Wheel of Time #2 ) by Robert Jordan (Mass Market)

 

"Robert Jordan's #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time(R), continues as Rand al'Thor and his companions set out to retrieve a powerful magical artifact from The Dark One's Shadowspawn in The Great Hunt.
 
For centuries, gleemen have told the tales of The Great Hunt of the Horn. So many tales about each of the Hunters, and so many Hunters to tell of...
 
Now the Horn itself is found: the Horn of Valere long thought only legend, the Horn which will raise the dead heroes of the ages.
 
And it is stolen.
 
In pursuit of the thieves, Rand al'Thor is determined to keep the Horn out of the grasp of The Dark One. But he has also learned that he is The Dragon Reborn--the Champion of Light destined to stand against the Shadow time and again. It is a duty and a destiny that requires Rand to uncover and master magical capabilities he never imagined he possessed.
 
Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time(R) has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters. The last six books in series were all instant #1 New York Times bestsellers, and The Eye of the World was named one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read."
