Embers Falling on Dry Grass- Prologue to Knife of Dreams - 4 stars (A good start to Knife of Dreams

Embers Falling on Dry Grass: Prologue to Knife of Dreams review:4 stars (A good start to Knife of Dreams. We'll see if it holds up) - Embers Falling on Dry Grass is probably the best prologue to the Wheel of Time since perhaps the scenes with the Dark One in Lord of Chaos. While it lacks the drama of some of the other prologues, it does advance plot nicely. Without ruining things, in this prologue we have Galad (identical to the publicly available free preview), Rodel Ituralde carrying out an attack, Suroth playing Seanchan high politics, Red and Black Ajah intrigues in the White Tower, Perrin plotting strategy, and last but not least Egwene. At 140 pages this more of a couple of chapters than a prologue, but in larger text it is far less of a burden than that of Crossroads.

It's hard to tell if this is more than just a good start for Knife of Dreams, but at least Jordan hasn't made the mistake as in previous books of introducing substantial new characters and plotlines in the prologue (although if Ituralde's plotline only appears in prologues one wonders why Jordan even bothered.)

Is it worth $3.50? Arguably, and at least with Amazon you can download it as many times as you want as opposed to other sources. I do take a star off for the fact this is discounted elsewhere where Amazon is asking full retail. Also keep in mind you can't save this on a local hard drive or print it, so make sure you have a good solid internet connection and plenty of time to read before downloading.

Still, we'll see if the trend advancing plots in the prologue holds up for KoD. Certainly better edited than the past, which makes me hope for the rest of the book.
5 stars (Finally, a Great Prologue!) - I finished up the prologue in a few days and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by how focused the story was. I felt as if the story lines are finally weaving their way back into final thread.

The prologue is broken up into little stories and I was happy to see some of them involved major characters such as Egwene and Perrin.

Embers will surely give you your fix before Knife of Dreams (KoD) hits the shelves in Oct. If Knife of Dreams reads as well as Embers did, KoD will be the best book since Lord of Chaos, for sure... if not The Dragon Reborn. Highly recommended!
