The second in the Sword of the Truth series is not outstanding in any way, but there was more action than the first which made the pace better for me. The world is very detailed – I assume it gets only more so as the series goes on. While the undying love story does not dominate the story completely, it is over the top and produces some cringe-worthy dialog. ( )

Has many of my favorite scenes from the series.
I really thought the series started sucking after this book though. I'm not even going to list them here. ( )

This book is about Richard Rahl tearing the veil and him being unwilling taken to the Palace of Prophets where he is supposed to learn how to control his gift. This book is just as good as the first and everything is getting more complex than before. This book also has a good lesson about people: kindness and good intentions can be an insidious path to destruction. If you like fantasy then this is a good book for you to read.

The author seems absolutely determined to just keep stacking the deck up against the good guys until it just gets ridiculous. He strives perhaps overly hard to make their quest seem absolutely hopeless in the hope that that will make their ultimate success that much more... moving, thrilling, what? Anyway, it does seem a little forced at times but I still enjoyed it. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0812548094, Mass Market Paperback)

An Epic of Awesome Power

Kahlan has at last gained the one goal she had always thought was beyond her grasp ... love. Against all odds, the ancient bonds of secret oaths, and the dark talents of men long dead, Richard has won her heart.

Amid sudden and disastrous events, Richard's life is called due to satisfy those treacherous oaths. To save his life, Kahlan must forsake Richard's love and cast him into the chains of slavery, knowing there could be no sin worse than such a betrayal.

Richard is determined to unlock the secrets bound in the magic of ancient oaths and to again be free. Kahlan, alone with the terrible truth of what she has done, must set about altering the course of a world thrown into war. But even that may be easier than ever winning back the heart of the only man she will ever love.
