Faith of the Fallen
4.1
Part of "Sword of Truth" series
"Faith of the Fallen" is the eleventh book in Terry Goodkind's epic fantasy series, The Sword of Truth. In this installment, the series' protagonist, Richard Rahl, finds himself in a precarious position, forced to serve the evil Emperor Jagang or watch as the world is destroyed. Throughout the novel, Goodkind explores themes of faith, free will, and the power of ideas to shape reality. The title of the book itself is a reference to the idea that faith, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, can be a source of strength and hope. This is exemplified in the character of Richard, who must maintain his faith in himself and his cause, even as he is surrounded by darkness and despair. Goodkind's world-building is also on full display in "Faith of the Fallen," as he delves deeper into the complex history and culture of the D'Haran Empire. The reader is introduced to new characters, including the enigmatic Nicci, who adds a fresh perspective to the series. One of the strengths of this book is Goodkind's ability to create tension and suspense, as the reader is left wondering whether Richard will be able to outwit Jagang and save the world. The pacing is well-balanced, with action-packed scenes interspersed with moments of introspection and character development. However, some readers may find the philosophical discussions and moralizing to be heavy-handed at times. Goodkind's political views are also on full display, which may not align with those of every reader. Overall, "Faith of the Fallen" is a satisfying addition to The Sword of Truth series. It is a thought-provoking and engaging read that will appeal to fans of epic fantasy. While it may not be the strongest book in the series, it is a worthy entry in this expansive and imaginative world...
