I’ve always seen prologues in books but never really understood their purpose—until I read a fantastic blog on Self Publishing Guides. The blog answered my question, what is a prologue in a book, in such an easy-to-understand way!

It explained when and why authors use prologues, and now, I see them as an important storytelling tool rather than just an extra chapter. If you’ve ever wondered about prologues, this blog is a must-read!
