Mon avis sera le même pour chacun des tomes. Honnêtement, je ne comprends pas pourquoi ce ne fut pas un seul livre. J’ai trouvé que l’histoire s’étirait pour rien et que c’était redondant avec les autres séries. Ça suit le schéma classique: il arrive quelque chose à Kahlan et Richard sauve tout le monde. De plus, j’ai trouvé que la résolution finale a été beaucoup trop facile.

Main plot completely interrupted by a shoehorned in side plot about the Mord-Sith and their torturer and rapist. Could not continue reading.

Another good book by Terry Goodkind. Yes, there was a couple chapters that had a bloodbath, but that was expected. The biggest downside is the amount of time he spent explaining what he was trying to get across. Sometimes, the explanations take too long to get across and slows down the story. The cliffhanger was good and made me want to move on to the next book.

Typical Goodkind. Richard Rahl is on a mission to save Kahlan from the Golden Goddess and the Glee who want to murder the mother confessor and future generations.

But, as Richard is coming up with a viable plan to rescue Kahlan, he gets sidetracked by ANOTHER evil witch man who lives in a secret maze that is really a complication or spell underneath and part of the palace that causes chaos.

Also, there are unknown spies and a lot of evil creatures, people, things that throw a wrench into everything. Richard may be as powerful as ever, but he still falls into many traps and the novella ends in a cliffhanger. I’m cheering for Richard and Kahlan, but it is not looking very good for them.

Toujours des intrigues et péripéties qui s'enchaînent beaucoup trop rapidement. Le conflit est un peu plus présent dans ce livre et la tension mieux construite que dans les précédents tomes.

An amazing novel and an amazing plot. It's gripping and entertaining.
The ending came unexpected.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
