Synopsis

Terry Goodkind returns to the lives of Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell—in The Third Kingdom, the direct sequel to his #1 New York Times bestseller The Omen Machine.“Richard saw the point of a sword blade sticking out from between the man’s shoulder blades. He spun back toward Richard after throwing the woman out of the opening, ready to attack. It seemed impossible, but the man looked unaffected by the blade that had impaled him through the chest.“It was then, in the weak light from the fire pit off to the side, that Richard got his first good look at the killer.“Three knives were buried up to their brass cross guards in the man’s chest. Only the handles were showing. Richard saw, too, the broken end of a sword blade jutting out from the center of the man’s chest. The point of that same blade stuck out from the man’s back.“Richard recognized the knife handles. All three were the style carried by the men of the First File.“He looked from those blades that should have killed the big man, up to his face. That was when he realized the true horror of the situation, and the reason for the unbearable stench of death.”Sequel to the #1 New York Times bestseller The Omen Machine

About Terry Goodkind

One would never think that a person with dyslexia would become a writer of novels. However, American author, Terry Goodkind crossed the usual boundary and wrote his first novel, even though he did not receive a formal education. He began his adult life building cabinets and violins, as well as was a marine/wildlife artist. His first novel, Wizard's First Rule, was published in 1994, thus beginning his illustrious career. He is now also a part-time race car driver, and is also a devoted husband and a friend to animals.

To quote Author Terry Goodkind........My privilege in life is the joy of writing books and telling stories about people who fascinate me, the good and the bad.

Goodkind's newest novel is NEST, where readers will be drawn into a world that is dark and evil. He remains one of the most controversial thriller writers of our time.

Goodreads review by Eric on February 10, 2017

The Third Kingdom By Terry Goodkind A Review by Eric Allen I was NOT looking forward to this book. I will freely admit that. The Omen Machine was boring, repetitive, laughably stupid, and it turned all of my favorite characters into brainless fools dancing on the strings of the plot rather than driving......more

I absolutely loved The Third Kingdom. I was itching to write a review for the past few days, since i first started TTK, but i felt I would not be able to do the book (or anyone reading the reviews) justice until I had finished it! Having said that, once again, Terry Goodkind takes the reader on a m......more

Goodreads review by David on August 27, 2013

Truly disappointed in this new series. I don't know what all these rave reviews are about but I for one have lost my faith in Goodkind. The sword of truth series was the first fantasy series that really got me into the fantasy genre, and for the longest time Goodkinds books were the standard by whic......more

(updated August 20, put most behind the spoiler tag, but they're not detailed spoilers). Two years after The Omen Machine, Terry Goodkind returns with the second novel in the "Richard and Kahlan" series. If you’re not familiar with The First Confessor, you may want to read this novel before reading T......more
