Terry Goodkind has outdone himself. I havn't enjoyed a book this much since I fist read Wizzards first rule. Unfortunatly I Can't tell you much about the story line or it would ruin the book but I can tell you this much. There is more magic in this book than the last two books combined. If you liked wizzards first rule you will love his latest book. It is the best book I have read to date bar none(That includes Stephen King).
