While the palace of famous people's wedding Cara and Benjamin, Richard and Kahlan welcome the return of peace. This seems to be short lived as a kid announces the coming of darkness clawing our two heroes. His predictions are only the beginning of an impressive series that scares all still present courtiers. Ludwig abbot of the bishop who governs the province of Fagin, a particularly dark area appears to be a turning stone, playing the fear to cause sedition among courtiers gathered at the People's Palace. To try to protect Richard and Kahlan took refuge in the Garden of Life. A collapse of the canopy discover a strange machine hidden since the creation of the palace and will he be able to defeat the insurgency, find the true source of these predictions, save Kahlan?
One can only rejoice to see Terry Goodkind return to his first love. There are the foundations that made the success of this series, a central element here reflect on the predictions and free will, which is included in a particular plot rhythmic. Humor too as this strange machine that despite cogs that appear from a technical medieval produces forecasts on metal bands. The events as sedition, or secondary characters are well described in a very fluid writing, to a heart or very well paced plot. For those who are fans of this series, and I am, it is with pleasure that we read this on, and if the book may terminate at last word, all the ingredients are there for us impatiently waiting for the after.
