Soul of the Fire by Terry Goodkind

Soul of the Fire is the fifth book in the epic fantasy series- Sword of Truth- by Terry Goodkind. I was rearranging my bookshelves recently when I came across this series hidden behind some newer purchases. I haven’t read them for quite some time and remember really loving the series when I first read it. So I thought I would re-read the books- and the best thing about that was I got to read them pretty much back to back- no waiting in-between for new books to release. I have enjoyed the series, almost as much as I did the first time- although there were a few minor issues I noticed this time around that I didn’t the first time I read them. These issues didn’t really detract from my enjoyment of the story- but proved that our tastes and expectations do evolve over time.
The story is filled with dark secrets, traps, fate, an important journey, intensity, fantasy, adventure, action, magic, danger, suspense, good vs evil, and so much more. I found it to be original and well written- with wonderful world building- Mr. Goodkind creativity resulted in a truly fascinating world, where every detail came to life before my eyes.
A great adventure that I am happy to have rediscovered again.

Thank you, Mr. Goodkind.
