DESCRIPTION:
"A weak link in the chain" according to Annie Butterfield. This is not the strongest installment of the Sword of Truth series. I really adore this series and can generally stick with Goodkind while we go on seemingly unconnected tangents (he always weaves it all together in the end). However, in this book, it takes about 85% of the book until it starts to get good. I can understand why he thought it was necessary to introduce a particular character in such length, but I would have liked to have seen more of the characters we already know and love. So while I got through it and am now happily on the to next book in the series, I have to say that this was a bit of a struggle. J. "Mooncat" according to Amazon Customer.

The past can teach us, through experience, how to accomplish things in the future, comfort us with cherished memories, and provide the foundation of what has already been accomplished. But only the future holds Life. To live in the past is to embrace what is dead. To live life to its fullest, each day must be created anew. As rational thinking beings we must use our intellect, not a blind devotion to what has come before, to make rational. Even better Amazon Customer Donna Isbell I read this series so many years ago . So many that I've forgotten so much so it's like reading it for the first time . This was fabulousI've been reading this series non stopI'm off to the eighth book now
Told in vivid and often gruesome detail, Goodkind's fable grabs the reader with a familiar archetypal theme: a young woman, Darken Rahl's illegitimate daughter Jennsen, flees her home in the wake of murderous forces rising from her lineage. She runs in the shadows of Lord Richard Rahl's domain with a spy sent by Emperor Jagang, the enemy of D'Hara. The change in perspective works up to a point. With his help, she journeys across the entire realm, chasing rumor and misinformation to ultimately discover the truth of her heritage. --Jeremy Pugh. Loyal readers, who know the truth that Jennsen seeks, may find this book tedious as they wonder when Lord Richard Rahl and Mother Confessor Kahlan are going to swoop in and save the day. Seven books into his Sword of Truth series, author Terry Goodkind continues to expand and enlarge the fantasy realm D'Hara. But Goodkind appears to be chal
