The Blood of the Fold refers to a cult that is very much anti-magic, a prelude to the Imperial Order that are on the way to the Midlands. The Blood of the Fold are brutal, nasty and stupid, and Richard has to get them out of the way before he can unite the Midlands. A testimony to what can be done by stupid people, and the power of repeating lies over and over until the same stupid people think they must be truth. In the overall theme of a series titled 'The Sword of Truth', the topic fits, but still not my favorite book. ( )book 3 of sword of truth, breaching the barrier between old world and new. Epic tale The third book in the series introduced a dream walker attempting to take over the world. The action moved very quickly in this installment of the series. This made for a fast and enjoyable read. Reads like your usual swords and sorcery fantasy novel. But distinguished by having a truly despicable villain. This book is about a sect of zealots who believe that magic is evil and so they are set to extinguish magic from everyone. Richard and Kahlan get swept up in all of the trouble. This book seems to be the start of something that will be a problem for Richard Rahl and all of his followers. It reveals abit more about Richard but at the same time more questions seem to pop up about him. This book is good for anyone who likes fantasy and mystery. no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0752806661, Paperback)An Epic of Two Worlds In a world as rich and real as our own, Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell stand against the ancient forces which besiege the New World-- forces so terrible that when last they threatened, they could only be withstood by sealing off the Old World from whence they came. Now the barrier has been breached, and the New World is again beset by their evil power. War and treachery plague the world, and only Richard and Kahlan can save it from an armageddon of unimaginable savagery and destruction. Terry Goodkind, author of the brilliant bestsellers Wizard's First Rule and Stone of Tears, has created his most masterful epic yet, a sumptuous feast of magic and excitement replete with the wonders of his unique fantasy vision.
