by Terry Goodkind Naked Empire —
The Naked Empire by Terry Goodkind is the 8th book in the Sword of Truth series.
Richard and Kahlan are down in the Old World. Richard is poisoned and told that to get the antidode he must help free the empire of the pristinely ungifted from the invasion of the Imperial Order. At the same time, the D'Haran army is defending D'Hara from the Imperial Order army. Zedd and Addie are captured in the Keep and taken to the heart of the Imperial Order army and face the wrath of Jagang.
This book starts out rather slow. Way too many times the author spends way too much time talking about different subjects and not just getting into action. Eventually the action picks up tho and it is typical absorbing Terry Goodkind. Goodkind is a master at making his characters come to life. You grow to love them dearly and want nothing bad to happen to them.
If you have read the other books in the series, you will love this one too. No matter how many books he adds to the series, they all are absorbing and you can't put it down till you've gotten to the last page.
