Richard Rahl has traveled far from his days as a simple forest guide. Emperor of D'Hara, war wizard, the Seeker of Truth - none of these roles mean as much to him as his newest. For Richard Rahl is now husband to Kahlan Amnell.
But their wedding is the key that unlocks a faraway spell, and now a deadly power pours forth across the world.
Separated from the Sword of Truth, stripped of their magic, Richard and Kahlan must journey across the Midlands to confront a secret from their past, and a trap that could tear them apart. For there's no place so dangerous as a world without magic.
I still enjoy this series, but boy there was a lot of sermonizing and politics in this installment! I'm sorry, I don't care to read about politics - not even fictional politics.
Apart from that, I did enjoy the book though. I'm glad that Richard and Kahlan actually got to spend most of this one together for once! I did miss Zedd though, and hope we get to hear more about him, Ann, Verna and Nathan in the next book. Oh, and whatever happened to Addie? Anybody remember?
