4.0 out of 5 stars The winds of time, November 16, 2003

This review is from: The Winds of Time (Library Binding)
I was at a used book store and came across many books I had read over 20 years ago at the age of 10.
I bought this book called The Watching Eyes, but the original title was The Winds of Time.
This book was originally written in 1974, but the way the author wrote it is timeless.
This is the story of Gail who is forced to go with her Uncle whom is not as nice as others think he is. Since her mother is unable to over come her mental issues, Gail has no choice other than going with her Uncle. When he crashed the vehicle she escapes into the wilderness. She stumbles on a family that shows compassion, friendship, loyalty, and such.
This is a good book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still memorable two decades later, March 31, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Winds of Time (Library Binding)
I read this book when it was first published (23 years ago), and many of the scenes, images, and certainly characters are still vivid. This book was a little eerie, but also very comforting in its own way. It is also reflective of a more trusting world than the one which we currently inhabit. The occasional illustrations were equally haunting. I'm disappointed that The Winds of Time is no longer in print
