  • An excellent series brought to life

    Leading off of "The Wizard's First Rule", "The Stone of Tears" maintains the standard of the first book. Terry Goodkind brought me into the world through an excellent use of descriptionall writing, not too boring and also doesn't lack detail. I found the story to be exciting, and I was unable to put the book down. Although it was predictable in places, he left me wondering what was going to happen in the end. He brought a final ending to the book, but is still able to carry on the series with other books. It is an excellent choice if you are willing to put in the time to read the entire series which now includes ten books.

  • Great Sequel to Wizards First Rule

    I know there is a lot of criticism of this book as not being very original etc. But as a work of Epic Fantasy this one does stand above the majority. There might not be much amazingly new here, but Goodkind is a real storyteller. Things move on at a nice pace and the book gathers momentum towards the end, just like a good book should. The characters are interesting and even though very powerful are not without their faults. Goodkind also creates an interesting magic system in these books. It's the second book in the Sword of Truth series but could stand alone as there are not that many back story threads from Wizards First Rule. Even though there is a satisfactory conclusion to the book, it's obvious that there is more to come. The story is continued in the third volume in the series, ...

  • Cheap thrills, but thrills nonetheless

    If you liked the first book, you'll probably like this one too. It has the same sexy sword and spell tone and the same focus on Richard and Kahlan's intense and angsty romance. It also has the same flaws. Overall, Stone of Tears is not very well constructed. Whenever Goodkind writes himself into a corner, some new magical spell or beastie that we've never heard of before shows up as a plot point ex machina. There's also a lot of sleaze. It isn't that the story involves sex, rape, violence and other prurient elements so much as that sex, rape and violence are slathered in on top of the plot for cheap thrills. Do NOT pick up this book expecting a universe that follows or even remembers its own rules. So when is it okay for authors to do this? When the book is still fun to read. If ...

  • Stone of Tears

    This is by far one of the best fantasy writers of this era, nest to tolkien and some of the other bests. Goodkind really keeps readers involved and anxious with his descriptive, and intriguing writing style. I have literally stayed up for hours trying to find out what happens next. Truly an original piece of work, filled with a whole new world full of new creatures and new ideas, morals, and moral decisions. He gives great depth to his characters without boring you to death with insignificant details. This book seems to me to be an equal to that of Wizard's First Rule, and I enjoyed it to the very last page. Recommended Authors: Robert Jordan (Wheel of Time Series) George R.R. Martin (A Song of Ice and Fire Series) L.E. Modesitt Jr. (The Saga of Recluce Series) Terry Goodkind (The Sword ...
