Jackie's Book Review

My book Phantom is the newest edition to Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series. It is about a man named Richard. Richard is a war wizard the first war wizard to be born in three thousand years in fact, but there is one small problem. He doesn’t know how to use his magic except through need or anger and whenever he uses that magic an underworld beast, sent by Jagang (Emperor of the Old World), appears and unlike living creatures it can’t die. Richard, the man named in prophecies must find away to somehow save the New World form the ever advancing forces of the Old World. If he fails the whole world will fall under the shadow of their twisted rule. Along with that Richard is in search of his wife Kahlan, whom nobody remembers except him, because of a spell called Chainfire that was placed upon her by three Sisters of the Dark.

One of my favorite things about this book is reading the way the characters get themselves in and out of impossible situations.
