Welcome to the next installment of WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST READ. Pull up a chair, and have a seat.So before we get to the explication of weirdness, a couple of things of note that might lend context to this review: 1. With the exception of 2013, Ive read one of these books a year. I cant handle more than one in a 365 day period. I think I skipped last year because I ran out of time and also I didnt care. 2. I spent all of last weekend finally watching season one of Legend of the Seeker, the TVI wish I could give negative-star reviews. This was the worse book I've ever read. I had to finish it to rightfully declaim how insufferably terrible it was and now I can say Goodkind is by far the worse writer (any genre) that I've read. For those of you that enjoy this stuff, if you give it some effort you can actually find good fantasy if you look for more than twenty seconds in the bookstore, or superb fantasy if you look online. Try Jack Vance, Gene Wolfe, George R.R. Martin, T.H. White,
ORIGINALLY POSTED AT Fantasy Literature.This review refers to the SOT series through book 9.Terry Goodkinds first book Wizards First Rule was great! Except for the actual First Rule ("People are Stupid"), which was...stupid. The story had so many unique and fascinating characters (especially the secondary ones). I was in love with Richard; I wanted to be a Mord-Sith. The next couple of books of The Sword of Truth were pretty good, too.Then...I dont know what happened...it just TOTALLY lost it.
An Opinionated Look At:Terry Goodkind's Blood of the FoldBy Eric AllenThis review is rated S for Spoilers.That's right, I actually finished it, finally. So I've been going through the Sword of Truth series (very slowly) and reviewing each book to see if they are actually as good as I remember them, or if I've simply been looking back through nostalgia goggles. So far, there have been a few things that my younger self was too stupid to notice that annoyed me now, but for the most part, they have
I'm not sure why I started re-reading these books. My initial read took place while I was in high school (my junior and senior year) and several new books have hit the shelves since then. I remembered Kahlan rather fondly, as well as Zedd--at least when he wasn't lecturing--along with Verna, Warren, Nathan, and Cara. I don't recall feeling terribly impressed on my first read of these novels, but in the intervening years (over a decade) I've figured out why: Richard's characterization lacks
The third volume in the, from what I understand, now completed saga of the Sword of Truth. Another good offering from Mr. Goodkind. I find it interesting how confused Richard seems to be much of the time. He makes decisions based on information and reason and passion, but spends much of his time regretting the decisions he has made, only to finally accept that, yes, he did do the right thing. I was elated at the end of the book when Gratch showed back up. I thought surely he had not died in the
I really liked this installment in the Sword of Truth series. Usually the third book is not the best but this one was better than the second I thought; more action, and plot and seemed to move more quickly. Even though Richard and Kahlan are separated through most of the book, there is enough action to keep it going and finally you feel like the Sisters of the Dark and even some of the Light get their commupance! The climax is very riveting and keeps you griping the edge of your seat----or pages
