Blood Of The Fold: Sword Of Truth

by Terry Goodkind
As told by: Terry Goodkind

Tom Doherty Associates | July 2, 1997 | Mass Market Paperbound

An Epic of Two Worlds

In a world as rich and real as our own, Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell stand against the ancient forces which besiege the New World-- forces so terrible that when last they threatened, they could only be withstood by sealing off the Old World from whence they came. Now the barrier has been breached, and the New World is again beset by their evil power.

War and treachery plague the world, and only Richard and Kahlan can save it from an armageddon of unimaginable savagery and destruction.

Terry Goodkind, author of the brilliant bestsellers Wizard''s First Rule and Stone of Tears, has created his most masterful epic yet, a sumptuous feast of magic and excitement replete with the wonders of his unique fantasy vision.

    I have read all of this series by Terry Goodkind and find them to be a nice way to escape and relax. I've read a lot of books and yes i will agree that a lot of fanatasy's have gone with the cliche of poor person finding unknown power. however even though this is a fantasy book i find that there are morals and relevances to our everyday lives.
    The first is simply this that even though you may not be rich and famous you can still become great as long as you work hard. Never give up and let other share your load, plus trust others and rely on their experience as well as words of wisdom. I wold recommend this books to anyone who loves to place them selves in what they read there are amazing roles and these book really help to relax and put you in a place where all else is forgotten. I would recommend this series to anyone who loves the thrills of a good medival/ modern fanatasy read.

    From someone who has read a good deal of fantasy, I was disappointed in this series...I read the first 3, then decided not to go further.
    - Good vs Evil
    - a peasant grows up to find they have magical abilities etc..
    ...sigh, canned fantasy cliche after cliche...there is nothing new or original here. Someone looking for a fantasy epic would do better to try Tolkien, Brooks, Jordan (the first few anyway), or better yet, some Canadians like Guy Gavriel Kay, or Steven Erickson...then you'll see a little bit more intelligence in a fantasy novel...that being said though, these do move along pretty good, I did read 3 of them before discarding this series after all :-)...but it's just that it's stuff that I've read before, and it's been done better.

    Halfway through this book that I bought 2 days ago, and I love it. Goodkind has not let me down so far in this series as to inventiveness and creativity, and this book certainly does not lack it either. I'll come back with a 5/5 when I'm done, I'm sure

About the Author

Terry Goodkind is a #1 New York Times bestselling author. His books include the eleven-volume Sword of Truth series, beginning with Wizard's First Rule, the basis for the television show Legend of the Seeker. Goodkind was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, where he also attended art school. Alongside a career in wildlife art, he has also been a cabinetmaker and a violin maker, and he has done restoration work on rare and exotic artifacts from around the world -- each with its own story to tell, he says. While continuing to maintain the northeastern home he built with his own hands, in recent years he and his wife Jeri have created a second home in the desert Southwest, where he now spends the majority of his time.
