New Releases by Terry Goodkind

Depuis qu''elle a tout oublié de sa vie et de son identité, Kahlan est potentiellement la femme la plus dangereuse de l''univers. Et pour tous ceux qui ne se souviennent plus d''elle, la fin du monde a déjà commencé, même s''ils ne s''en doutent pas... Seul contre tous, Richard garde en mémoire l''image de la femme qu''il aime. Refusant de capituler face à une extraordinaire machination, il a réussi à convaincre ses plus fidèles amis que sa quête n''est pas une pure folie. Mais les choses se compliquent encore, puisque Kahlan, si elle découvre la vérité à son sujet, deviendra à son corps défendant la plus sûre alliée des forces démoniaques qu''elle a passé sa vie à combattre. Si elle veut survivre dans un monde où la trahison et la manipulation sont la règle, l''épouse du Sourcier doit absolument savoir pourquoi elle est un des personnages centraux du conflit qui oppose deux civilisations, deux philosophies et... deux hommes aussi différents qu''il est possible de l''être.

A publishing event— #1 New York Times bestselling author Terry Goodkind turns in a new direction and delivers a stunningly original thriller. Turning twenty-seven may be terrifying for some, but for Alex, a struggling artist living in the midwestern United States, it is cataclysmic. Inheriting a huge expanse of land should have made him a rich and happy man; but something about this birthday, his name, and the beautiful woman whose life he just saved, has suddenly made him—and everyone he loves—into a target. A target for extreme and uncompromising violence . . . In Alex, Terry Goodkind brings to life a modern hero in a whole new kind of high-octane thriller.

Twilight has fallen upon the Three Kingdoms: a grey time that could foretell either dawn or descent in bitter night. Richard Cypher, woodsman and warrior, is chosen to bear the powerful Sword of Truth, but his enemy, Darken Rahl, is a royal mage who commands armies, hideous beasts and--more terrible by far--a twisted magic.

Descending into darkness, about to be overwhelmed by evil, those people still free are powerless to stop the coming dawn of a savage new world, while Richard faces the guilt of knowing that he must let it happen. Alone, he must bear the weight of a sin he dare not confess to the one person he loves...and has lost. Join Richard and Kahlan in the concluding novel of one of the most remarkable and memorable journeys ever written. It started with one rule, and will end with the rule of all rules, the rule unwritten, the rule unspoken since the dawn of history. When next the sun rises, the world will be forever changed.

Richard Rahl, portador de la Espada de la Verdad, se enfrentó con un mal que ni siquiera él podía combatir: una pavorosa plaga anunciada por la luna roja y desatada por el enloquecido emperador Jagang. Para frustrar los planes de Jagang y salvar la vida no sólo de su amada Kahlan, sino también la de todos los habitantes del Nuevo Mundo, Richard tuvo que entrar en el Templo de los Vientos. Cuando el mal quiso acabar con la vida de Richard, Kahlan invocó a los repiques mágicos e involuntariamente liberó un azote mucho peor del que Jagang pudiera soñar. Ahora el destino quiere que las almas de Kahlan y Richard se templen en el ardiente caldero de la batalla. Para ellos ningún lugar es tan peligroso como un mundo sin magia donde los repiques andan sueltos. El espíritu del fuego es el noveno volumen de La Espada de la Verdad, una de las más grandes sagas de fantasía épica de los últimos tiempos, que ha hecho de Terry Goodkind un autor tan reconocido como Robert Jordan o Tad Williams.

Richard struggles to find his missing wife Kahlan in spite of the bizarre fact that no one else seems to believe she actually exists or that he is married to her.

Jusqu''à ce que Richard Cypher sauve cette belle inconnue des griffes de ses poursuivants, il vivait paisiblement dans la forêt. Elle ne consent à lui dire que son nom : Kahlan. Mais lui sait déjà, au premier regard, qu''il ne pourra plus la quitter. Car désormais, le danger rôde en Hartland. Des créatures monstrueuses suivent les pas de l''étrangère. Seul Zedd, son ami le vieil ermite, peut lui venir en aide... en bouleversant son destin. Richard devra porter l''Epée de Vérité et s''opposer aux forces de Darken Rahl, le mage dictateur. Ainsi commence une extraordinaire quête à travers les ténèbres. Au nom de l''amour. A n''importe quel prix. «Ce roman va tout balayer sur son passage, comme le firent ceux de Tolkien dans les années 60.» Marion Zimmer Bradley.
