Summary

NAKED EMPIRE. It begins . . . "You knew they were there, didn't you?" Kahlan asked in a hushed tone as she leaned closer. Against the darkening sky, she could just make out the shapes of three black-tipped races taking to wing, beginning their nightly hunt. That was why he'd stopped. That was what he'd been watching as the rest of them waited in uneasy silence. "Yes," Richard said. He gestured over his shoulder without turning to look. "There are two more, back there." Kahlan briefly scanned the dark jumble of rock, but she didn't see any others. Lightly grasping the silver pommel with two fingers, Richard lifted his sword a few inches, checking that it was clear in its scabbard. A last fleeting glimmer of amber light played across his golden cape as he let the sword drop back, in place. In the gathering gloom of dusk, his familiar tall, powerful contour seemed as if it were no more than an apparition made of shadows. Just then, two more of the huge birds shot by right overhead. One, wings stretched wide, let out a piercing scream as it banked into a tight gliding turn, circling, once in assessment of the five people below before stroking its powerful wings to catch its departing comrades in their swift journey west. This night they would find ample food.

  • I always enjoy Goodkind's writing, and this series is truly remarkable. "Naked Empire: Sword of Truth, Book 8" is yet another thrilling story filled with suspense, bloodshed, and triumph. I love listening to the adventure of Richard and Kahlan as they battle to protect the freedom to live life on one's own terms.
  • I really liked the first six books in the Sword of Truth Series. However, Pillars of Creation was a disappointment as it became repetitive and could have used some more editing. Despite this, I decided to give the series another chance after a couple of years, as I was going on a road trip. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a bad decision and a waste of my service credit. The scenes in Naked Empire dragged on and the writing felt lazy and preachy. As a result, I have decided to give up on the series.
  • There are many individuals who seem to have issues with book 8... Terry is, in his unique manner, challenging the lack of interest that is prevalent in our society. If you struggle to comprehend the arguments and reasoning he presents, or if you're unable to grasp the straightforward analogy he draws between the antagonists in the story and the current Progressive movement, then you're even more misguided than the society Richard rescues.
