I knew when Drefan violated Cara while she was out of it, that he was another villain under the disguise of being Richard’s nice guy brother. On that same thought, I knew early on that he was bad. In this case, Bravo to Goodkind for making such strong female leads as Kahlan, Cara, Berdine (I really like her), Raina, and even Denna (who I did not like early on). I have come to love Cara, as one of the strongest female characters that I have read. I loved their interaction with their sister of the agiel, Kahlan. I loved how he was able to soften them up with feeding the chipmunks.cute. I adored the beginning with Richard, Kahlan and the mord-sith girls. So if you don’t want to know, then do not read further. I do have to note, for those who have not read this series, there are some spoilers in this review.
What made this great was that it got my attention from the beginning, which I enjoyed and continued to move forward at a rapid pace, and a humdinger of an ending. Temple of the Winds is Terry Goodkind’s 4 th Sword of Truth book.
Temple of the Winds by Terry Goodkind – a Review (Oct.We begin the 4th night of our Sword of Truth 13 Night Marathon. Even so, the many readers who have traveled this far in the series should wander happily through this addition. Goodkind's prose sometimes lags, but his ingenuity rarely does (his magical-traveling sliph is a gem), though the roles he assigns to women sometimes languish at the level of pop-feminism. Sundry subplots involving the wizard Zedd and other well-drawn characters fill out the book.
To stop this pestilence, Richard must find the long-lost Temple of the Winds and in order to do that, he and Kahlan must forswear their love and each marry another. The schemes go far beyond mere invasion or assassination: their centerpiece is a magically spread plague that brings hideous death, particularly to children. The evil Emperor Jagang is not dead, after all, but is still scheming against Richard Cypher, bearer of the Sword, and against Richard's betrothed, Kahlan Amnell, the Mother Confessor. The fourth entry in Goodkind's Sword of Truth fantasy saga opens only weeks after the close of Blood of the Fold (1996).
