About this listen
From the internationally bestselling author of the Sword of Truth series, comes a new Richard and Kahlan novel, sequel to The Omen Machine.
The bloodthirsty Jit is dead, and against all odds Richard and Kahlan have survived. But a new menace has attacked them in the Dark Lands. Infected with the essence of death itself, robbed of his power as a war wizard, Richard must race against time to uncover and stop the infernal conspiracy assembling itself behind the wall far to the north. His friends and allies are already captives of this fell combination, and Kahlan, also touched by death's power, will die completely if
Richard fails.
Bereft of magic, Richard has only his sword, his wits, his capacity for insight – and an extraordinary companion, the young Samantha, a healer just coming into her powers.
Compelling, fast-moving, and intense, The Third Kingdom is a powerful tale that welcomes new readers to Terry Goodkind's world, while opening up new vistas of worldbuilding for longtime readers of the adventures of Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell.

‘Few writers have Goodkind’s power of creation’
Publishing News
‘Goodkind’s greatest triumph: the ability to introduce instantly identifiable characters. His heroes, like us, are not perfect. Instead, each is flawed in ways that strengthen rather than weaken their impact.’
SFX
‘A real born storyteller'
Anne McCaffrey
'Everything one could ask for in an epic fantasy'

Would you consider the audio edition of The Third Kingdom to be better than the print version?
No both are equally as goodWhat did you like best about this story?
I liked how it sort of continued from the sword of truth series but in a slightly different wayHave you listened to any of Sam Tsoutsouvas’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The story is all over the place, the characters have lost their heart, the prose is incredibly repetitive. I sat through 15 hours of The Omen Machine (a credit I will never see again) and am giving up on The Third Kingdom a few hours in. Incredibly graphic and gory without the gripping plotline to justify it.
A huge disappointment.
Cashing in on The Sword of Truth.

Is there anything you would change about this book?
Too much repetiton of facts it is over and over again becomes hard listeningSam Tsoutsouvas is not a patch on Nick Sullivan
What was most disappointing about Terry Goodkind’s story?
Too long too much constant repetition of same factsHow could the performance have been better?
Get Nick Sullivan to narrate he makes the stories come aliveCould you see The Third Kingdom being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?
