Ilustration In Pursuance Of Books The Law of Nines (Sword of Truth #15.5)

Turning twenty-seven may be terrifying for some, but for Alex, a struggling artist living in the midwestern United States, it is cataclysmic. Inheriting a huge expanse of land should have made him a rich and happy man; but something about this birthday, his name, and the beautiful woman whose life he just saved, has suddenly made him-and everyone he loves-into a target. A target for extreme and uncompromising violence . . . In Alex, Terry Goodkind brings to life a modern hero in a whole new kind of high-octane thriller.

Critique About Books The Law of Nines (Sword of Truth #15.5)

Can't say I typically bother writing reviews, but after finishing this book I'm having trouble not . . . well venting in some small way. I liked the idea of following the Rahl bloodline in this world, I enjoyed some of the little links between the Sword of Truth series and this book-Jennsen's, or Tom's old dagger, the idea of spells of three, Orden Nebraska, the Woman of mystery figurine, ect. Beyond this the book is sadly lacking. The characters just aren't up to par for Goodkind. In every

First, let me say I was very disappointed in the Sword of Truth finale. I was first drawn into his Sword of Truth series because of the descriptions of the characters and the world that just made it all feel real. Towards the end of the series, though, the books seemed to be shallow. I continued to read them, though, because by that point I had to know how it all worked out for Lord Rahl and Kahlan. The last book seemed to be written as though TG was tired of the whole thing and had one more

After reading "Wizard's First Rule" earlier this year, I wasn't inclined to pick up any more of Terry Goodkind's fantasy novels. So, when I heard that his new novel, "The Law of Nines" was an attempt to take his writing in another direction with a novel that was labeled as a thriller, I decided I'd give Goodkind another chance.Unfortunately, every issue I had with "Wizard" was on display here in "Nines." Alex is an artist, living painting to painting. On his 27th birthday, he rescues a beautiful

Terry Goodkind rushed the finale of his Sword of Truth novels... to write this?? I was really disappointed with Law of Nines despite the allusions to the novels I so love. I felt like the story was a direct parallel to Wizard's First Rule, except in today's world. However, unlike Wizard's First Rule, there was little character development in Law of Nines; I felt like TG was relying on readers to associate Richard and Kahlan's personalities with Alex and Jax. Their love seemed fake and convenient

The story is set in a world like ours where there's no magic, but there's technology that does the same sort of things that magic might accomplish in a fantasy world. There is a connection to that sort of fantasy world, and people of that world can cross over to our world. And they want something. That's the more or less spoiler free premise.Terry Goodkind is starting to repeat himself... The villain of this book Randell Cain is startlingly like emperor Jagang, espousing the same philosophy,
