Nothing beats the 1st book, but this one was much better than the 2nd. Im glad I didn't give up on this series!

It was ok, nothing more, nothing less. Second one of the series was much better. But it could be much worse too. I still had fun reading it.

Even better than book 2! And the narrator of this book is much better than the person who did book 2. Lots of character development. I got a true surprise in chapter 28 of the audio book. That doesn't happen often. Like book 2, the three main characters spend a lot of time separated from each other, but it works well. The writing continues to be very good. This is a series i find myself looking forward to every time i have a few minutes to listen to it. Even though the books are long, it never becomes the drudgery like the Wheel of Time books so often did.

So I am still enjoying this series, but I cannot help but notice how many parallels there are between this and the Wheel of Time series (for example, Rand is the car'a'carn and Richard is the Catharine, both are supposed to be the leader and savior of a lost people). That is a little disappointing and makes me annoyed with the series at times feeling it is less than original.

I'll admit I didn't read the whole thing - got to chapter 2 and got bored. I made it through the first two books just fine but I can't stand the Sisters, so... Sending this one back to the library!

Encore une fois je me suis laissée happer par les aventures de Richard et Kahlan. De nombreux rebondissements, de la bravoure et de l’honneur, évidemment une fidélité sans faille et un amour inconditionnel entre les deux protagonistes, voilà les ingrédients de ce troisième tome. A voir si je tiendrais sur l’intégrale...

Attention : spoiler. Il s’agit plus de notes de lecture que d’un avis.
Après avoir vaincu Darkhen Rahl ils affrontent un nouvel ennemi, Jagang, celui qui marche dans les rêves. Ce dernier domine les Sœurs de l’obscurité ainsi que Tobias, le commandant du Sang de la Déchirure, en les visitant et les torturant dans leur sommeil. Il arrive encore de nombreuses aventures à nos héros, et toujours pas de retrouvailles en vue...
Après avoir réveillé la Sliph, Richard parvient à traverser l’ancien monde en un temps record, juste à temps pour libérer les Sœurs de la lumière, Kahlan et Adie avant la disparition du palais des Prophètes. Mais ce faisant, il permet aux mriswiths d’envahir Ayindril. De son côté, Verna, devenue Dame Abbesse, a échappé à ses geôlières et a réussi à délivrer Warren, le nouveau prophète. Ensemble ils partent mettre en sûreté les sœurs de la lumière qui ont échappé à Jagang.
L’ouvrage se termine par une bataille finale grandiose en Ayindril, où Richard, seul contre une horde de mriswiths, doit son unique salut à Gratch son ami le Garn. Et nous laissons Zedd affublé d’un Rada Han (qu’il peut retirer à sa guise) en compagnie d’Annalina l’ancienne Dame Abbesse, alors qu’ils sont à la recherche de Nathan...

I hate how this man writes women and I hate how he’s constantly torturing them with sex and violent rape and revolving their entire characters around sex and jealousy generally. BUT the books are just so fucking good. I was so stoked on the end of this novel, everything coming together and happening all at once. So much suspense and mystery and frustration and annoyance. I love the banter and the silliness and the very dark and evil parts. It’s a good fucking series. I can’t get over it. Enough to make me forget all the rape, incest, carrying nipples around in a bag, and ridiculous amount of titty torture.

Also want to complain about the direct word to word translating going on of ancient languages. That’s not how it works.
