The voices had nothing to do with them being pristinely ungifted. It was pretty heavily hinted that it was the voice of the keeper of the underworld corrupting them. Similar to the voices that all...
That's being generous!
The movie was so bad that I could only suffer through roughly 10 minutes of it before changing the channel in the hopes of finding virtually anything else. I'd honestly...
The ending of the book is definitely not one of my favorites. I'm not an objectivist by any means, but Paolini's ending takes the idea of self-sacrifice to an extreme and left very few characters...
I read It by Stephen King when I was 9 and did a book report on it. My teacher was horrified it was awesome!
The Mother, not Jensen, was the one capable of sensing the Lord Rahl. To be honest I'm not sure that her protecting Jensen from being slaughtered would be construed as being completely disloyal the...
I still don't think the bond works quite that way. For instance Drefan Rahl could not use the bond to sense the location of Richard the way that those loyal to him could in TOTW. If Blood alone was...
The Sisters of the Dark proved that's not true when the bond failed for them because they were not loyal to Richard.
There is not necessarily 1 ungifted Rahl per a generation only a minimum of 1. The pristinely ungifted were just the balance for guaranteeing that 1 gifted Rahl was born. As we saw with Drefan they...
Well we needed Richard to have been told exactly what a Hedgemaid was. With that information it would have been a logical interpretation for him to arrive at. Without knowing what it was in advance...
The problem is that doesn't work. Remember the bond did not function correctly for the Sisters of the Dark due to the fact that they were not truly loyal to Richard and these Mord Sith would be...
I doubt Drier is a sorcerer. Richard knows what it feels like to be in the presence of one and therefore would have been able to tell. It seems that he is some kind of 3rd category.

Yeah and it was fine at the very beginning, but even up to the last portion of the book in the People's Palace they were all on edge and STILL acting strange, irrational, and loose with Kahlan's...
I agree on the fact the book feels a lot like Laws of Nine instead of a Sword of Truth novel. The main things I didn't like was that I felt like many of the protagonists were behaving out of...
After reading the entire book I would say that it is at least going to be a trilogy.
I'd only warn not to think about the demand. I'm honestly not sure I would even describe it as a demand.
It isn't psychos that are dropping dead it is weak minded people similar to the Hakens. One of the things that is frustrating about this book is that it is difficult to believe that people of this...
I just finished the book myself. Although I have several issues with the book I still don't think it is the weakest in the series. I can see your point about certain things, yet I was able to come...
I would probably choose Mord Sith, but it's a tough call. Confessor seems to carry the same kind of pain, but in a different soul crushing way.
BTW in terms of Denna I would think she certainly...
I just got my hands on it and will probably have it finished by Wednesday night.
Edit: Already about halfway through. So far I have to agree with your assessment it starts very strong and had...
I've finished ADWD and yeah there is never full confirmation of that and a lot of deaths are up in the air. Even a couple of the confirmed deaths are kind of up in the air since they come from...
Just finished rereading WFR and SoT. Going to start BoF again today. Hoping reread the entire series before the new book arrives. Really want to read A Dance with Dragons, but don't think I would...
FYI Barnes and Noble started their summer clearance so there are some pretty good hard cover books 5.99 and under. Didn't see any SoT books unless you count Laws of Nine, but there were some other...
That would make sense. I tend to avoid interviews because they often include spoilers.
It's possible that his start age is 3 I haven't read GoT in a while, but I know when Catelyn calls him 4 in a later book. Sometimes it is difficult to tell exactly how much time has passed so it's...
