Format:Hardcover
A very good short story. It's nice to see Zedd as the centre of the action. Only problem is that it's too short,I wanted it to go on and find out what happened afterwards! Worth a read if you have been following the series. But beware this has already appeared in the Legends anthology!!

It would have been nice to have found out that this was exactly the same as the short story published in Legends (1998). I've now got two copies of the same story and while it's ok it certainly wasn't worth paying for twice!...

...This should never have been published like this. As a fan of Terry I feel short changed and I didn't even pay for it.. (Gift from my GF) I am used to getting a good book thats worth reading....
I must say thou that this is a good story, the characters are drawn with all of Terry's usual skill and style, the story flows very nicely and it is well told. However when I put the book down I felt cheated/robbed because I wanted so much more from this book and didn't get it.
As has been said by another reviewer this would have made a great main peice in a collection of short stories... I feel I must come back to the fact that I am used to getting a great big wedge of a book from Terry and this was just a sliver. I am not saying I want quantity over quality... I just want what Terry has given us before which is quality AND quantity.
This is a must read for any fan of Terry's work, but wait till it comes out in paperback or you see it in a sale... or even second hand. The less you pay for it the less you will feel ripped off.

Fantasy Book.
I have all Terry Goodkind books and this was an excellent addition for me. A good read, too. Also excellent value for money from Amazon, as usual.

Although it's not necessary to read Debt of Bones in order to read The Sword of Truth series the book is beneficial to the overall story by adding dimension to Zedd's character... Read more

a good read not suitable for under 13yrs as there is a sexual content to the book .this book follows the collection of books.

Let down
Should have checked before purchase as to how many pages this book had.For the cost it was a very small purchase.

Nice novella concerning Zed
Goodkind is known for writing real behemoths of fantasy books, the kind that fills volume after volume. Read more

Debt of Bones
Lovely little story, but too short, as it can be easily read in just a couple of hours.
It was nice to get to know Zedd a little more, as he's probably my favourite... Read more

I really liked this book, it was a page turner. Only problem was I ran out of pages too quick.

Short but worth reading
The only negative comment about this book is that it isn't a novel - it's a short story. But it is 'this' story that originally made me want to read the rest of the books, so... Read more
