Unabridged Audiobook
Dont base your opinion on the reviews before this...... YES it repeats a lot of information laid out previously! but as a first time listener it still has the ability to twist what you thought was coming!!!!!!!!
This is a wonderful book full all kinds of magic and stuff it's great love story I would tell all my friends to read it over and over again thanks for taking your time too read it
As mentioned in other reviews there is a lot of repetition in this book, I have come to expect this in what is a large series with many characters to keep track of. This was not the best book in the series but I very much enjoyed it all the same. In my opinion, it rounded the series off nicely. The narrator was excellnt.
The repetition is back, but here we are at the end. At some parts, it feels like the story is running break neck to the end while at others, it feels like we will get there when we get there. That happens in life, but in this story, it can give the listener whiplash. That can harm any listener. You could skip it knowing everything works out, sure, but HOW things work out actually is fun. Sadly, this story never hits the heights that Faith of the Fallen soared to, and that is the part that kind of hurts the most. You hoped it would, but it never does. For those looking for deeper magic, there are other books with magic and sword that go the distance. As always, the narrator did the best with what they were given.
good book. Loved the whole series.
I loved the ending of the book series! It was a bit repetitive, but not to much like other reviewers have said. It had a couple of interesting surprises in there. Even though you could guess how it was going to end, there was definitively still tension in the story and it had some heart-warming elements in there to. Would definitely like to read the entire series a second time in the future.
No confessions necessary. This was awful. Try Eragon instead.
To be honest, you could probably skip this entire book and believe that everything turns out alright in the end. The sheer quantity of repetition and rephrasing of the same talking points from ALL the other books was numbing. The concepts weren't particularly deep and the characters weren't particularly complex, so I truly didn't understand the need for beating the listener over the head with every narrative point. One of the most disappointing (and overly long!) books I've rented.
Truly a fantastic story. What a way to wrap it all up. I had so much fun reading all the novels and getting myself all immersed in Richard Rahl. I cant wait till the tv series starts in August of this year.
Once again Terry Goodkind delivers! One thing I've noticed with other authors as story lines stretch across multiple novels is a loss of story clarity and muddied plot lines. Not so here. The plot lines remain clear, the story flows at a nice pace, and the characters become even more solid in the mind of the reader. Another reviewer likened the stories message to those in Ayn Rand novels and the parallel is a good one. Sword and sorcery and a deeper message? Can't ask for more.
