About this listen
Richard Rahl and his wife, Kahlan, have been reunited after their long separation, but with winter descending and the paralyzing dread of an army of annihilation occupying their homeland, they must venture deep into a strange and desolate land. Their quest turns to terror when they find themselves the helpless prey of a tireless hunter.
Exploited by those intent on domination, Jennsen finds herself drawn into the center of a violent struggle for conquest and revenge. Worse yet, she finds her will seized by dark forces more abhorrent than anything she ever envisioned. Only then does she come to realize that the voices were real.
Staggered by loss and increasingly isolated, Richard and Kahlan desperately struggle to survive. But if they are to live, they must stop the relentless, unearthly threat that comes out of the darkest night of the human soul. To do so, Richard will be called upon to face the demons stalking among the Pillars of Creation.

One-time lieutenant of the evil Emperor Jagang, known as “Death’s Mistress” and the “Slave Queen”, the deadly Nicci captured Richard Rahl in order to convince him that the Imperial Order stood for the greater good.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 34
From the internationally best-selling author of the Sword of Truth series comes a new Richard and Kahlan novella. "They are the monsters under the bed when you are little, the shape just caught out of the corner of your eye when you thought you were alone, the shadow of something in a dark corner that surprises you and then isn't there. They stop you dead with a knot of unexpected terror in the pit of your stomach. I think that the star shift has brought us closer to their realm so that they now have the power to step into our world and hurt us."

Worst book in series
The narrator was solid but the story was boring. This is the paperback that made me lose interest in this series years ago.

Gah! Jim Bond is back in his monotonous narration
Again, as in book two, the monotonous, pregnant pausing, Robo-narrator is back.
The story is fantastic but is completely destroyed by Jim Bond.
I listen on 1.5 speed and the dramatic pauses are too long...I don’t get why they went back to this guy after the book 2 reviews.
So frustrating.

Jim Bond finally gives a performance that is acceptable. the story was nice and didn't repeat itself nearly as much as most of the TG novels do.

Excellent!
This is a good book.
You just have to go in knowing that Richard, Kahlan, and the gang, are not in this book for the most part, if you can get past that, this book is very exciting!
I enjoyed it very much!

Least favourite
The first 90% of the book is all about new characters. No a single chapter about anyone we know until the last few hrs. For the series as a whole, you must listen to it, but it could have been shorter.
