Soul of The Fire: Sword of Truth, Book 5
by Terry Goodkind
 (8/12/2001)
Jennifer Wilder
I have been a fan of the Sword of Truth Series for quite a long time. I have long awaited the arrival of this book, and had high expectations for it. I found that I was slightly disappointed that Terry Goodkind did not take advantage of the fact that Kahlan …more

I would be a fool to suggest that Terry Goodkind is not one of the greatest fiction writers of our time. The man truly has a gift. The first four books of "The Sword of Truth" series are totally captivating and you can't say the adventures were anything but …more

Something More: Excavating Your Authentic Self

I have begun the search for my authentic self. The love of my life bought Simple Abundance, Ban Breathnach's previous masterpiece, for me so that I might find my true voice in this life. I never imagined what an impact these two books would have on my life. Finding …more

Something More is a terrific book. It helped me get over my depression. Each time I pick up the book I would realize that there is something more than meets the eye. I recommend this book to anyone that would like to discover the brilliance of their authentic self.

I also had to read this book for school, and found it incredibly slow going and boring. It doesn't seem relevant crime fiction at all, and is more a love story than a novel about anything else...I do think that the book was way too long, and the ending kind of …more

Look, this guy has a good story, but he just isn't a very good writer. He goes into LONG descriptions of scenery, etc. in a way reminiscent of Dickens but nowhere near as good. Dickens was cute when he tried to thicken his books, Guterson is just boring. He actually …more

The Snow falling on cedars is an Interesting book but I would say very overly detailed. There are some sections of the book which are not very well described at the same time they are too lengthy. But overall it's a new sort of story reflecting lots of …more

I am presently studying this book in an English class called 'Crime fiction'. Most of the people in my class found that the book is way too detailed and therefore is really, really boring. I really didn't like it and at the moment I have an essay to write on …more

This book combines mystery, historical fact, and moral message into a well written and exciting work. Although at times overly detailed, I felt the book was compelling and well-written. It was one of those book you do not want to put down and despite its length I remained interested throughout.

Seymour Butts
A relatively good story idea, horribly brutalized by too much unnecessary detail and imagery. It's not that it's long, it's that it's so long you find yourself reading over the same pages trying desperately to comprehend. Though it is absorbing at some sections …more

L. Littlewood
Having read this book three times, I feel I have a certain standing in making this contribution. The idea for the story is intriguing (which is why I bought it, along with the fact that it had won a PEN/Faulkner Award), however, the execution was poorly done, …more

Wonderful tale - wish I could have been one of the 160 partners. Had not heard of this gold recovery- thought it was fiction at first. Well done Tommy Thompson!!

Reading this book and also watching the "She said yes" video, has been so life changing for me. I encourage anyone to read this. Cassie's testimony is one that has brought so many people closer to God. I really look up for her for standing up for Jesus Christ. …more

Joe A Lopez
The book is good. I enjoyed it and plan to read other books by Sanford in the future.
However, the editing of the "Large Print" edition was very poor, as there is a blatant error in the 4th paragraph of page 144, where the murder victim is referred incorrectly by …more

Barbara Bishop Stovall
At last an author who can keep me engrossed, immersed, absorbed, enthralled, excited, puzzled, panting for the next chapter, wanting more, yet not wanting it to end. Those of you who love mystery with a twist you can't see coming, will love Saving …more

This book starts out very slow but picks up. Once you realize the flashbacks are relivant to the story it becomes more interesting. If you start to read it and decide to put it down, wait until you are at Chapter 10 or 11. I promise the story does pick up. I turned out to …more
