Product Description

Product Description
In denying his heritage,Richard Cypher,grandson of the last true Wizard,ignores the Wizard's Second Rule.It may be his undoing and the Lands'.One person holds the power to make Richard accept what he hates-Kahlan Amnell,Mother Confessor.To save her people,her world,and Richard,from the Keeper of the Underworld she mustsacrifice everything she holds dear and begin a war she knows can only end in death. This is a world where the creatures of nightmare will find you by the movement of a shallow breath and waking dreams will decide your soul's fate...Where magic is both a boon and a bane to those who use it and those who merely feel its touch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fanatastic, brilliant charaterisation and compulsive reading, 14 Nov 1998
By A Customer
Stones of Tears is the second in the Sword of Truth Series and I have read the book twice already. The author has created characters you really care about and you want to win through. The story is well thought out and fast paced with barely a pause between adventures. The imagination of Terry Goodkind leaves you breathless and gasping for more. Stones of Tears is a flowing story following the main characters, Richard, the Seeker of Truth and newly realised wizard, and his love Kahlan, the Mother Confessor, go through trials and tribulations in their quest to defeat the evil of Darken Rahl and his master. Stone of Tears has some of the creatures and characters you will find in other fantasy books, a dragon, wizards but several morenever heard of before. Each hero and villain is unique in themselves. The story is overflowing with magic and adventure and creates a story with is a must for fantasy readers old and young alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terry Goodking's books are just amazing, 29 Jul 2000
By A Customer
I used to think nothing could be better than Lord Of The Rings until I picked up the Sword of Truth series. Once you pick up these books you will be lost for days in Richard and Kahlan's world. Mr Goodkind's writing is simply amazing he can introduce new characters with ease making you feel as though you have been reading about them for ages when in actual fact you have only read two pages about them and then other times he will leave you sweating and unable to put the book down. This is such a long book but make no mistake you will hang on to every word! . If you only buy one Fantasy book make sure you buy this one it's buy far and away the best out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant again!, 3 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This book is as good as the first, maybe even better! You simple cannot put the book down. There is 1 adventure after another without it being too much or too dramatic.
Goodkind has created a world and characters you could almost beleive are real, the book is excellently written.
Never predictable and never boring. Its a must read for all fantasy lovers.
I eagerly await the next book, Blood of the Fold, which i have already ordered!
