Wizard's First Rule (Bookcassette(r) Edition)

Bookcassette, 1994

Best I've read
I'm going to try to explain the folly of the 1 star reviews for this book. #1. WORLD vs CHARACTER Goodkind did not set out to make a world first (as did Tolkien) and then tell a story centered around an event in that world. Goodkind is a character builder and as he himself has said could have written this book in any style or genre, his focus is on the characters and their experiences. NOT ...

Tor Books, 2000

Great stories for anybody!
Let me start off by saying that I do not normally like Fantasy novels. I've tried to read a few, and I find most of them extremely boring. I do like the fantasy genre, i.e. movies, and I like Tolkien, but for the most part, fantasy novels in and of themselves are boring to me. Anyways, my husband is a fan of the fantasy genre, and we were together for 2 years before he finally convinced me to ...

Second set is even better than the first
This set contains books 4-6 of Terry Goodkind's wonderful epic fantasy series The Sword of Truth: Temple of the Winds, Soul of the Fire, and Faith of the Fallen. Temple of the Winds - 5 stars. This is the installment of the Sword of Truth series in which Terry Goodkind really comes into his own as a mature stylist and plotter. It is noticeably the best-written of the series up to this ...

Goodkind's best novel yet
I would rank this book up there with Faith of the Fallen as the best book in the series so far. While not as explicitly philosophical as Faith of the Fallen (which, aside from Richard's first premature and out-of-place philosophy speech at the beginning, seamlessly integrated philosophy with dramatic action so that by the climax I was on the edge of my seat not in spite of, but because of the ...

From high fantasy to alternative reality, there's something for every fantasy fan within the pages of this collection. Included are: "The Hedge Knight" by George RR Martin.

TOR BOOKS ST MARTINS MASS, 2007

The perfect conclusion
While the biggest complaint about this book has been that it contains (gasp!) philosophy (followed closely by the fact that it contains not just a protagonist, but a hero, though the charge that Richard is "perfect" is blatantly false, as are most of the other criticisms), most of the critics seem to have missed most of it. It is not just "life good, religion bad," as they claim--although that ...

Faith Of The Fallen - A Sword Of Truth Novel

Terry Goodkind

Tor: Tom Doherty Associates, 2000

A truly uplifting and inspiring work
By far the most ambitious Sword of Truth novel yet, Faith of the Fallen makes big promises...and delivers. This is a novel about the indomitability of the human spirit that takes the reader on an astonishing philosophical journey along the way. Metaphysically, it addresses whether this world or some supernatural realm is the ultimate reality; epistemologically, whether faith or reason is the ...

Wonderful to see some old friends
LEGENDS is a wonderful collection of new, short novels that tie into the most established, well-loved fantasy series, written by the premiere authors of the genre. Stephen King leads off with THE LITTLE SISTERS OF ELURIA, an ancillary to THE DARK TOWER line. There are prequels and additions to other wonderful series, and seeing some of them, like Ursula LeGuin's EARTHSEA addition and Robert ...

Naked Empire (Sword of Truth, Book 8)

1 review
Terry Goodkind, Jim Bond, 2003

How novel...intelligent fantasy
In Naked Empire, Terry Goodkind weaves a plot that, through the action of the story, illustrates increasingly deeper themes with great relevance to our culture today. Politically, and most superficially, it is a story about the hopelessness of the doctrine of pacifism for establishing genuine peace, but that it rather leads to tyranny. Ethically, it is about whether people are justified in ...

Excellent sequel surpasses the original
After finally finding a way to be together at the end of Wizard's First Rule, Richard and Kahlan are separated by sinister forces beyond their comprehension. Each must undergo a perilous journey: Richard through the Wilds and beyond the great barrier into the Old World, a vast land beyond the three introduced in the first book; and Kahlan northward to Aydindril, through the harsh winter climate ...

Not as good as Chainfire, but...
...does it ever set up for what will surely be a spectacular conclusion! I can't wait for the next (and, sadly, final) book in the series. This book contains several great new characters and plot developments, including Richard's new foreign policy direction for the D'Haran empire (it's about damn time!) which is highly relevant to the real world today, and a shocking twist at the end. ...

Goodkind hits his stride
This is the installment of the Sword of Truth series in which Terry Goodkind really comes into his own as a mature stylist and plotter. It is noticeably the best-written of the series up to this point, and the plot leads to a climax so brimming with conflict that it is physically uncomfortable to read. I found myself in the position of hardly being able to bear going on, but at the same time ...
