Gollancz Soul of the Fire: Book 5 The Sword of Truth : Goodkind, Terry: desertcart.ae: Books Review: very good interesting to read Review: I have to say I was warned that the series took a bit of a downturn after the first 4 book. But I disagree! I really enjoyed this installment as Goodkind again draws on so many threads to weave a brilliant story. It has everything, love, violence, magic, and a few scares for me too! The 'lurk' at the beginning was quite scary, though believe me, everyone will laugh if you try to explain that to them. My usual criticism is that the stories are often quite slow in the beginning until you hit the turning point and can't put it down. Not so with this one, from the beginning you have an idea of the direction of the story and are drawn in. There are a few slow patches, but overall it keeps you engaged. The actual story continues immediately from the events of the previous book. Richard and Kahlan really can't seem to catch a break and separate from Zed again. In fact lots of the characters seem to branch off into their own missions and occasionally this can be a bit irritating, as the chapter finishes on a cliffhanger with one character and onto another! On the bright side, the chapters seem shorter and sharper than previous books and it doesn't take long for your character to resurface. Wonderful stuff. You won't be disappointed!

I began this amazing series of books by picking this up in a hotel when I had nothing to read - have since read it twice more. Yerry Goodkind knows how to weave a story and I really enjoyed getting lost in the world of the sword of truth. Not for the faint-hearted but very exciting.

What arrived was the another book in the cover over Soul of the Fire. Opened up the cover of the book and the actual content beneath is for a book titled: All the Rivers Run by Nancy Cato.
