About this listen

Terry Goodkind returns to the epic Sword of Truth saga in a tale of sweeping fantasy adventure bound to enthrall his growing legion of fans. In Temple of the Winds, the New York Times best selling fourth novel in the series, the Seeker of Truth Richard Rahl and Mother Confessor Kahlan Amnell risked their lives and souls to free the land of D'Hara from the scourge of a magical plague. But in doing so they accidentally unleashed the Chimes, a magic whose threat will reach far beyond D'Hara.

Now it has become terrifyingly clear that the Chimes have the potential to bring down all that Richard and Kahlan have worked to protect, and even the power of the Sword of Truth may not be enough to stem the tide of their unleashed magical force. But if the Chimes cannot be stopped, first they will ravage Richard and Kahlan, then all of D'Hara, and then the entire world.

Exciting..

These books get more and more gripping. Considering that the biggest strength of our main character so far has been his magic (and his character of course but magic is his big weapon) that strength is taken away from him. Not only that but he also ventures into a new land with very strange customs and has to convince them to join with his empire.

This book had me on the edge of my seat, the narrator was really good and all the names were pronounced right. Nothing not to like in my opinion.

Fantastic Listen

I really enjoyed the twists and turns the story took in this book. The introduction of the Anders with their history, culture scheming and everyday lives was enthralling.

Boooooring

Book starts at chapter 60. Its boring as hell but last 10 chapters make up for that. Narrator's performance is great. Would only recommend if you're a fan of the series...

Sort of like the bible but more American

Terry is back to his good form after the previous disaster. The main story arc is exiting and keeps you hooked, although the ending is not entirely unpredictable...
The story and the tone has an obviously christian ethos to it, but in an American sort of way. Sometimes a bit preachy but I don’t mind too much.

It’s a good listen, would recommend!

Boring, it was boring

This has to be the least exciting book in the series so far.

The story hardly had Richard and Kahlan in it - at least not in the first 3rd after the whole chicken part.
