Rating: Summary: Spectacular book! Review: This is one of the greatest fantasy series out right now and Terry Goodkind keeps his exciting pace with book six. Terry Goodkind's spectacular character development and his impeccable story telling combine to make one book that is absolutely wonderful. From the first page you turn to the final words you read, this book will keep you hooked. Ive read it twice, and still it is a pleasure to read. You will be begging for the next book when you're halfway through this book. I highly recommend this book. One of the best of the best I've read.
Rating: Summary: When will it end ? Review: I really enjoyed the first few volumes on the series. The Pace was fast and the story was excellent. Now, it seems that Mr. Goodkind has caught the Jordan's virus and that the serius will drag on and on and on. It always surprises me that people with such vivid imagination will get stuck within one story and never move on.I really think that Mr. Goodkind is good. But the series should finish and he should move on to something else.
Rating: Summary: You gotta love it ... Review: Faith of the Fallen is by far the best in the series. Goodkind really takes a hold of you and makes you feel more for these wonderful characters. He has really evolved as a writer and his approach in this book leaves you captivated and anxiously waiting for the next book. I personally feel that you have to relate to the characters and feel with them so I have become a great admirer of Kahlan and Richard's strength and morals. I am truely in love with these characters and if you really want to experience this series you have to let it go and just let the story take you.
Rating: Summary: The best sof far Review: This is so far the best book in Goodkinds fascinating tale. After the rather boring 5th part, Goodkind finally ties up loos ends and bring the story near it's conclusion.
Rating: Summary: Have faith! Review: WOW! Do I need to say more...I guess I do. If you're getting bored with Robert Jordan, swing on over to the Midlands and join the fun! Goodkind delivers a perfect sequel to Soul of the Fire (awesome!). The way the story develops, leaving a person hanging on every word until the end...WOW! Goodkind usually starts off slow, which was okay, picks up a little speed, dies down, and then at the end, races right by you! I loved this book, because for the first time since Stone of Tears, it broke up the lovers! This book is like a duology in itself! Two separate adventures, come together at the end...awesome! When I closed this book, I instantly jumped on the internet, searching for the release date for the next one...you will be too. So have faith!
Rating: Summary: Simply Amazing Review: This is easily one of the best books I've ever read. The best of the series thusfar. As an avid fan of Wheel of Time, I will even go so far as to say Faith of the Fallen is better than any of the WoT novels. It's simply amazing. I'm at a loss for words at how powerful a book this is. By the time you read the final page you'll come to understand.
Rating: Summary: faith - in the human spirit Review: it's interesting to note some of the (harsher) criticisms of this latest installement. Sounds like Crossfire or something... (election year fever?) Clearly, book II began an incredible journey through lands of magic, while filling in the historical setting for the "New World." Book IV saw this tour of magic reach it's ultimate conclusion - literally. It was exciting there for a couple of pages... (but how interesting would all the power really be anyway?) From there, both the Magic and the Historical setting converged at a point - where to go? I applaud Mr. Goodkinds latest installement - by far the richest prose in the genre, the creation of imagery is truly unparalleled. The opening of this book, I assure you, is some of the most beautiful imagery I've ever had the honor or reading. From there, I must say that the search for "the human spirit," (it can only be termed as such) was an excellent evolution of the story line. Richard takes a turn at Prophet, and says the New World cannot win the war. (we, ofcourse, see why later). Besides, he's lost his faith in people. And why shouldn't he? The treachery of some, the gullibility of the many and their inability to distinguish from good and bad. etc, etc. And he and Nicci take a journey together. An extraordinary one, when you consider the matter of who and what THEY are and I'm sure the diehard folks see that as a lamentable conclusion. But I see it as an ingenious one. That magic isn't just a fireball from a guys palm or other such tangibles. I look forward to the next one. I do wish these folks could get some time to themselves, some peace a quiet, for atleast a while! They need and deserve their rest. :-) So what do you say, Terry? Let's reunify, live in harmony, crush the dreamwalker, and then skip a generation for a little R&R? I'd like to meet that Male Confessor sooner rather than later...

Rating: Summary: A powerful book. Review: I really haven't been much of a fan of Goodkind in the past because long series tend to bore me. I want finite stories(I know that in real life stories have no end, that is why I read books) That said, this book was notable because it really was a story unto itself...And I loved it. It brought tears to my eyes. Goodkind said it was it a novel of ideas and it really was. I wanted to go out and change the world after reading this book. I read it about 6 months ago and I still feel energized. It really got to me. Don't turn away from this book.
Rating: Summary: boring! Review: This book is boring, there are better books(Like wheel of time, or song of ice and fire.) Richard is boring and Kahlan is boring. And i don't like goodkind. bye a fanatic Jordan fan, who hated Goodkind
