Summary: They just get better and better!
Review: Words can't describe how much I enjoyed this book! I was impressed with the first two, but Blood of the Fold is fantastic. It is so easy to get swept up in the characters emotions that I feel as though I am actually part of their incredible world. Few books I have ever read can even begin to be compared with this one. If you haven't read it yet, buy a copy now! You have really been missing out

Summary: Best in the series so far
Review: It was hard to put down this latest installment of Goodkind's series...they just keep getting better and better. The characters' personalities are richer and more humorous (especially Zedd Zorander). Impatiently awaiting the release of Temple of the Winds

Summary: Goodkind and Jordan Are One And The Same?
Review: Well, I just finished Blood Of The Fold and I am firmly
convinced that Terry Goodkind and Robert Jordan are actually
the same person. Hey, that's not bad! I love both
Seriously, I feel that Goodkind has borrowed more than
his fair share from Jordan, but he still tells a great story.
The action is nonstop(although I could do with less brutality)
and my breathing quickens as I turn each page. As fast as I can.
My biggest problem now is waiting for BOTH Goodkind
and Jordan to publish their next book! Three cheers for Master Rahl!! Mark Luuug Raaaach aaarg

Summary: Did Terry ever have an original thought?
Review: With Wizard's First Rule Goodkind had a little promise. It was not realized in the sequel and it is all but gone in this, the third installment. The theme of rape running through all three novels is also quite disturbing, with the exception of the female lead, every woman in the novels has been in the past, or is presently being raped. It's a very powerful emotional device to throw around so casually. But this is all moot, the plot is trivial - stealing pieces from Jordan and Eddings - the characters are morons and worst of all Goodkind has lost all hope of ever growing as an author. Too many fans (aka book-buyers) are more than happy to read this recycled trash. Some people complain about Robert Jordan dragging out his novels, after you read this book -think to yourself, what actually happened that couldn't have been put in 50 pages

Summary: Continues the addictive tradition!
Review: "By the time I took a breather I was on page 117!""I THINK I can read another paragraph before the doors on the train open!""This guy is addictive!"That's just a sampling of what my friends and I have said about the Sword of Truth series. BLOOD OF THE FOLD stands right up there with the best of the genre. I was a little put off at first by the number of plot elements that Goodkind was juggling, but was pleased at how he tied them all together at the end. It was nice to see Richard developing into a deeper, more multi-faceted, flawed but ultimately sympathetic and likable character. I'm very curious to see what happens with Kahlan in the next volume, seeing as how she and Richard both hold a measure of sway over the Midlands.All in all, I have to say that WIZARD'S FIRST RULE is still my favorite of the bunch so far, due primarily to the aura of a new series, and the ending of STONE OF TEARS was one of the fastest reads I've ever experienced. But BOTF shows no abatement in the energy of the series and is well worth any fan's time. Keep 'em coming, Terry!!!!

Summary: Goodkind progresses nicely
Review: I was quite pleased with Terry Goodkind's latest effort; Blood of the Fold. The third book in the Sword of Truth series, Blood of the Fold shows Goodkind's development as a writer. Gone are the rough edges and occasional pointless scenes that sometimes broke the mood of the first two books. Blood of the Fold is nicely contained, all of the plot lines come together well in the end. I was somewhat disapointed that Kahlan and Zedd did not play a bigger role and the ending lacked some of the punch that it was intended to have. Too many events happening too quickly took away from the suspense of the final battle. Overall, I found Blood of the Fold to be the best of the Sword of Truth series. Goodkind's world is richly detailed and I could easily lose myself in it. If his progress as a writer continues, the Temple of the Winds should be well worth reading

Summary: I liked it.
Review: Well. What can I say? I liked it very much and I think that Terry Goodkind is an interesting author. In my opinion, there are only so many ways of creating fantasy--you can do high fantasy with quests and all that, or Arthurian, or contemprary. All the books in each of these categories are based on the same ideas, just stated in different ways unless the author is especially fantastic. Like it said in the Mallorean by David Eddings, "The first rule of scholarship is plagurism" (I think I quoted that right.) Anyway, I thought it was a very good book and I can't wait 'till the next one

Summary: A grand tale from the mind of a genius.
Review: I have read the three books that Goodkind has written and theyjust keep getting better and better. The way he writes has a mindgrabbing persuasion that makes putting the book down almost impossible. The characters have true feelings and characteristics that I find hard to find in other authors. His writing makes it seem like the tale is actually true and not just a fantasy. Goodkind is at the top of the list in his writing genre. The only reason I did not rate him and his books a 10 was because true perfection is impossible. He does come close though.

Summary: Very enjoyable.
Review: I am definitely looking forward to the next book in this series. That Richard Rahl's rage can lead to poor decisions is refreshing. Mr. Goodkind would seem to have a knack for "twisting the knife" at the appropriate moment. I wish more heros had such an easily identifiable dark side.
I would, however, like to see the characters of Chase and Zed expounded upon a bit and let Kahlan take a slightly smaller role. Kahlan's magical powers seem to have left her with nothing else to evolve into.
It can be difficult to inject the proper amount of humor into the characters of such a tale but I think that Mr. Goodkind scored high in this respect. A very good read.

Summary: Goodkind may not be original, but he is very good
Review: Terry Goodkind has been criticized for taking items from otherwriters works and using them as plot devices, but you can say thisabout nearly any writer in the science fantasy genre. The one big difference about Goodkind's work that a number of fantasy writers (ala Jordon) have forgotten is humor. Goodkind will take you on a grand roller-coaster of a ride, but there will be a cathartic scene to release the tension within sight. One of the items I found to be most refreshing about Goodkinds characters, is that most of them are adults. There are few 'coming of age' scenes in Goodkind's work of the type that seem to predominate other fantasy series. Most of his characters have had the dew removed from their eyes and can thus point out a number of sights that other authors would not have been able to show us. With 'The Blood of the Fold', Goodkind's main character, Richard Rahl, is beginning to use some of the power base that has developed during the previous books in
