This book took me FOREVER to read. It was a slow start and I was irritated because the main two characters did not appear within the first seventy pages. When Richard and Kahlan do enter the the story, they are taking steps that are super cliche and predictable because the end of the Wizard's First Rule set the plot for this. Then some annoying changes occur and Kahlan, Zedd, and Richard get separated and the story takes three different routes.The story after the beginning takes off and was about 600 pages of complete suspense, thrills, and action. One of my favorite themes about the book was woman vs. testosterone crazed heathen idiots. I loved watching Kahlan learn to balance compassion, love, and becoming a strong leader for a people who turned their backs on her.
