Terry Goodkind is great at world creation and weaves the plot beautifully with parts fitting each other like a puzzle. The three drawbacks I found that lowered my rating was the pace being quite slow at times, characters being much more two dimensional than in the first book, and this one was a lot more gruesome, gory, and graphic. I had to put it away a few times cause I got too disturbed. The story itself is of course very interesting and having an audio book is definitely a plus for this book.
