The peaceful villagers of Emond's Field pay little heed to rumors of war in the western lands until a savage attack by troll-like minions of the Dark One forces three young men to confront a destiny which has its origins in the time known as The Breaking of the World. (synopsis from Reed Business Information, Inc.)

It's been awhile since I've read the book, but I do remember it being a decent read. Although the usual stereotypes of fantasy are in here (the young hero who doesn't know he has powers, etc.), I still felt like there was enough here to make it somewhat fun to read.

This is part of a *huge* series called The Wheel of Time, which I think is up to about 12 books (but don't hold me to that ;-)).
