A Truly Terrible Book - [27 Apr 2010]
I tried to think of some redeemable qualities to this book before writing a review, but I honestly couldn't think of any. This is by far one of the worst books I have read in my life. I was introduced to this book by a family member because her daughter...

amazing is the only word for it - [27 Apr 2010]
Rarely am I so captivated by a book. I was fascinated by the characters and found the plot line enthralling. I am only 14 and yet I made time to read this amazing book. This is not to be passed up.

Rehashed poorly - [20 Apr 2010]
The book is identical to thousands of other horrible Tolkien knock offs. The plot is arduous and the characters inconsistent. For instance the second main character is supposed to be a bad ass, mysterious and powerful creature. Yet she acts like a dainty...

Looking for a good read? - [17 Apr 2010]
If you like action, adventure, and romance, this book has it all. I got hooked in the first chapter. Terry Goodkind does a great job of fleshing out his chacters. Each book brings new surprises. Also, look out for the Mord-sith! The first season of Lengend...

More than a fantasy novel - [11 Apr 2010]
First of all, I really love this series, it has changed the way I see life and the world in a number of ways. It's true that maybe the writing isn't the best, and the character development, pieces of the plot being taken from other writers, etc may be...

Good story, enjoyable characters, but beware - [07 Apr 2010]
I really enjoyed this book. It isn't literature, but I didn't expect it to be. It does seem to have very similar plot elements to Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time series which only grow stronger in the second book, but it is a good classic fantasy book...

A Massive Disappointment - [26 Mar 2010]
I purchased Terry Goodkind's Wizards First Rule, the first book of his Sword of Truth series, based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews it has received from other users. I read the book over a year ago and my dislike of the novel has remained so strong...

disappointed - [25 Mar 2010]
People kept recommending the Sword of Truth series to me, so I finally picked this up. Actually, I bought it twice, once as a paperback and once as an e-book, an irony I now regret. Comparisons to The Lord of the Rings are inevitable, since (like it or...

Great start to a series won't release the remaining books on kindle. - [23 Mar 2010]
I'll make mine short. I loved the book. So why would I give it a one star rating you ask. Because it is just a teaser so you will buy the rest of the series as a bound paperback or hardbound. I must have been mistaken when I thought authors cared about...

Miserable attempt at fantasy - [20 Mar 2010]
I typically really appreciate a decent fantasy book and will at least sit through mediocre ones, but I couldn't make it through this miserable attempt at a book. The story is written at about a 3rd grade level, but with some uncomfortable sexual tension...
