Book 4 in the Sword of Truth series reads a bit more like a “who done it” type of mystery than a pure fantasy novel.  This works nicely and progresses the story line nicely.  I enjoyed this one the character development, which focused mostly on Richard and Kahlan this time.  It did get a bit tedious reading over and over how much they loved each other, but it was actually important to the story so I can understand.  Most annoying thing about this book is again the page long explanations of what happened in the previous books.  This is truly annoying and is getting worse with each book.  At this pace, book 10 will be mostly a rehash of the previous 9 books.  But still a great story and I really do want to see how this all plays out, so onward we go to book 5.  7/10
