About this listen

With Wizard's First Rule and seven subsequent masterpieces, Terry Goodkind has thrilled readers worldwide with the unique sweep of his storytelling. Now, in Chainfire, Goodkind returns with a novel of Richard and Kahlan, the beginning of a sequence of three novels that will bring their epic story to its culmination.

After being gravely injured in battle, Richard awakes to discover Kahlan missing. To his disbelief, no one remembers the woman he is frantically trying to find. Worse, no one believes that she really exists, or that he was ever married. Alone as never before, he must find the woman he loves more than life itself....if she is even still alive. If she was ever even real.

Epic edge: listen to more in the Chainfire Trilogy and the Sword of Truth series.©2005 Terry Goodkind (P)2004 Brilliance Audio

Critic Reviews

"Bond's somewhat understated style and relaxed, steady pace keep the story moving and help listeners sustain interest from start to finish. The characters' secrets and political maneuverings are in good hands with Bond." ( AudioFile)

Frustratingly wonderful

Absolutely frustrating for 75% of the book but that extra 25% is brilliant. Once it gets good it gets really good!

Such a good series Such a boring chapter

The story was too protracted and by the end of the book I was about ready to kill Sister Niki. The end came clarifying points but in truth it was too drawn out and too slow.

Jim Bond was his usual self being interesting, with a voice that I enjoy listening to. Well done Jim
