The Third Kingdom

In the gripping continuation of Terry Goodkind's 'Sword of Truth' series, Richard and Kahlan have narrowly survived the brutal Jit, only to face a new, insidious threat. Both are infected by an essence of death, slowly robbing Richard of his war wizard powers and Kahlan of her very life. Stripped of his magic and desperately racing against time, Richard must unravel an infernal conspiracy brewing behind the distant wall to the north, where his allies are already held captive. His only companions in this harrowing quest are his unwavering sword, his formidable intellect, and the extraordinary young healer, Samantha, who is just beginning to understand her own burgeoning powers. With Kahlan's life hanging in the balance, Richard must confront an enemy that threatens to consume not just their lives, but the very fabric of existence, forcing him to rely on courage and cunning when magic has failed.
