Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind
I really loved this book. This is my second time reading it. The first time I actually read it. That was many years ago and I never really continued reading the rest of the series. As I decided that I want to read the rest of the series, I decided to go back and reread this one. I'm glad I did. I had forgotten so many details from the first time around. I am also fortunate to have stumbled upon the audiobook for this book. The narrator did a fantastic job! I loved it! Makes me want to listen to the rest of the series in audio.
The flow of this story was so smooth. I can't even begin to elaborate. The only thing I can say I had an issue with is the time span. It's kind of unclear how much time actually passes during some parts of the story. That's the only real issue I had with everything. I loved the flow of it. I was kept on edge for many parts of this book.
The characters were pretty amazing themselves. It was impossible not to love the protagonists and despise the antagonists. There was an antagonist in the book that I couldn't help connecting with, though. I'm not going to say who because I don't want to spoil the story. All I can say is that when you read it, you'll understand.
I give this book a full five-star rating. It was a great book. I'm sure that the rest of this series will be just as fantastic. I can't wait to dig my teeth into them. I want to find out what happens to all of the characters from here. To say I'm fully invested in this story would be pointing out the obvious to the millionth degree.

If you can find Debt of Bones by Goodkind you might consider reading it before proceeding further in the “Sword of Truth” series. It is Zedd’s story and will help outline the series and specifics of how certain roles of the players within the series are structured and the purpose of them. It is an actual outline of the series that explains why things occurred and who was involved. Plus, you get to read about a young Zedd and his role.
You may also enjoy the Gemma Doyle Trilogy by. Libby Bray. That is an outstanding series with a new spin on the fantasy plot, characters, and generational similarities.
Read on and Enjoy
