    About this audiobook

    New York Times bestselling author Terry Goodkind has created his most lavish adventure yet. Tormented her entire life by inhuman voices, a young woman named Lauren seeks to end her intolerable agony. She at last discovers a way to silence the voices. For everyone else, the torment is about to begin.

    With winter descending and the paralyzing dread of an army of annihilation occupying their homeland, Richard Rahl and his wife Kahlan must venture deep into a strange and desolate land. Their quest turns to terror when they find themselves the helpless prey of a tireless hunter.

    Meanwhile, Lauren finds herself drawn into the center of a struggle for conquest and revenge. Worse yet, she finds her will seized by forces more abhorrent than anything she ever envisioned. Only then does she come to realize that the voices were real.

    Staggered by loss and increasingly isolated, Richard and Kahlan must stop the relentless, unearthly threat which has come out of the darkest night of the human soul. To do so, Richard will be called upon to face the demons stalking among the Pillars of Creation.

    Discover breathtaking adventure and true nobility of spirit. Find out why millions of readers the world over have elevated Terry Goodkind to the ranks of legend.

    • 1/5
      Boring,never has the sword,getting really old.
      He's rather not the seeker
    • 2/5
      this should've ended several books ago. It feels dragged out. Most of the story feels boring. for the past several books the only cool stuff is at the end.
    • 5/5
      It was great , I don't understand the bad reviews on this page , this book was pretty good. It introduced new characters and unlike some of the other previous books , wasn't annoying with the main characters being idiots . All in all it was great
    • 4/5
      Slow going but worth listening to as this novel ties a lot of information together regarding the “truly non-gifted offspring of a Rahl. The audio quality of the narration is very poor. So much so that the narrator often sounds like a computerized voice, which really put a damper on listening to the story.
    • 2/5
      Terrible. Everything that made the first books great was completely missing in this one. Also, the storyline became so unbelievable it defied reason. A girl hidden away from the world suddenly becomes all knowing and then we throw the main characters in at the end to wrap it all up quickly with a convoluted monologue about the virtues of life, blah blah blah. Whatever happened to letting the reader peel away the meaning in their own way rather than spoon feeding them your intentions. I listened to this in audiobook and literally had to listen at 150% speed to just get through it. I am so far into the series that I will probably continue to the next book, but it’s getting harder and harder to stick with this series.
