Book Four of The Sword of Truth—the series first begun in Wizard's First Rule—returns listeners to the world of Richard Cypher, a simple woods guide who never dreamed he would be named the Seeker of Truth and become caught up in magic, war, and dangers so extraordinary that the fate of his entire world would hang on his actions and decisions.
The dangerous, fanatical Imperial Order, under the leadership of the power-mad Emperor Jagang and his multitude of demonic underlings, unleashes a deadly plague. To find a cure Richard Cypher and his beloved Kahlan Amnell must seek out the legendary Temple of the Winds, a fortress of evil sealed away for three thousand years. But the path of the Seeker of Truth is never an easy one—even if he can reach the Temple at all, there is no guarantee he'll ever return.

I just love the Sword of Truth series❤️. Terry Goodkind has an amazing sense fantasy, his world is totally unigue and the story keeps you captured book after book.
If you dont mind long intimate scenes narrated by an old man its excellent even if that sort of thing bothers you its still a wonderful read
boring and it got old quickly, a lot of preaching and very dumb conversation. i found myself not caring what happens to anyone.
Just trash. Ok I know this series was the ultimate in the 80s and 90s, but this book was the final straw. The emphasis on Kahlan's period, the betrayal of her supposedly having sex with Richard but thinking he was not Richard. Her whiny Oh Richard every ten minutes. Ugh. I am done with this series. The writing is poor. The book dragged. The authors love of s&m is tiresome. Done.
First off the narrator is difficult to get used. Some of the pronunciations are off. If you have been listening to the previous audiobooks its difficult to make the change to his style. That being said, he does have quite the range for voices and gives energy to the characters. It does get better as you go. As for the stroy i found it quite entertaining a few moments especially in the back half of the book really hit me. Cough... Entering the temple cough.. cough.. over all I would recommend it.
The narrator changes the pronunciations of the names (for example instead of Kahlan he pronounces it almost as Collin, as well as others...) from the previous narrators. I still enjoy the story but it's a bit difficult to listen to the changes in the pronunciations. However, there are other voice effects that are used that add to the experience, such as an eerie echo when the spirts talk.
Different voice as previous audiobooks, pronounces names differently. Really annoying.
Great story. Traditional fantasy but very much missed in it's ferocity, rage and gore. My I've major critique is the main characters are so naive it's frustrating. They make the same mistake, even after vowing to never do then again, always heading to disaster and always saved by a stroke of luck or destiny or spirits. Narration was awesome.
ugh! narrator doesn't pronounce names correctly. it's frustrating instead of kahlan he pronounces it almost as collin. also, narrator pronounces Addy as aide-y.
Terrible narrator. Obviously he has no clue about the series of books. had to quit listening 6 chapters into the book. Very disappointing.
