Bestselling author Terry Goodkind's epic Sword of Truth series continues with the next stunning installment, Phantom
On the day she awoke remembering nothing but her name, Kahlan Amnell became the most dangerous woman alive. For everyone else, that was the day that the world began to end.
As her husband, Richard, desperately searches for his beloved, whom only he remembers, he knows that if she doesn't soon discover who she really is, she will unwittingly become the instrument that will unleash annihilation. But Kahlan learns that if she ever were to unlock the truth of her lost identity, then evil itself would finally possess her, body and soul.
If she is to survive in a murky world of deception and betrayal, where life is not only cheap but fleeting, Kahlan must find out why she is such a central figure in the war-torn world swirling around her. What she uncovers are secrets darker than she could ever have imagined.

"Finally, things are starting to pick up. The penultimate volume in this series starts accelerating towards the final showdown. Less time was spent going on in endless tedium about stuff we already understood, and more time was spent actually advancing the story.One more book to go. "
— Tim (5 out of 5 stars)
" The book is very good, great addition to the series but a little slow and drawn out. "
— Bridget, 10/18/2017" I have to admit that I prefer the more action packed books in this series and I feel this book could have been pared down a bit, but I still enjoyed it. "
— Betty, 2/16/2014" Unlike Jordan's series, I think it is long past time for this series to end. While the first books were good, they've become preachy and slow and annoying as the series progresses. There are a couple of books in the middle of the series that are especially bad. "
— Michelle, 2/6/2014" Drags on and on as thing change and events happen because the writer deems it so. "
— Nai, 2/4/2014" The quest for Kahlan continues...only one book left! The ending of this one is definitely unexpected...bring the series full circle for the last book. "
— Kelly, 1/29/2014" Another great book in the series, looking forward to the conclusion on the next book "
— Caley, 1/25/2014" I love the series and can't wait for the net (and final) book to come out. "
— Andrea, 1/17/2014" See Wizard's First Rule "
— Me, 12/24/2013" A good continuation, since I've now listened to 9 books in this series I do find the inclusion of backstory tedious at times, but I still enjoyed it, there are still strong points that I get fully wrapped up in the drama. "
— Kevin, 11/22/2013" Not my favorite by Terry Goodkind. What happened? I thought his first set of books were action-packed interesting novels. Now he just seems to have his characters talk and talk and talk. "
— Meghan, 10/11/2013" This is an acceptable improvement after Chainfire, but nothing overly enjoyable. "
— Todd, 9/4/2013" Book #10 in the "Sword of Truth" series. Continued good stuff, if you're into the series. "
— Sean, 8/4/2013" It's a sequel and since this was a gift, the gifter didn't know that. But it was good enough that I'll go back and start from the beginning of the trilogy. :) "
— Janet, 4/5/2013" I liked it, but at times it felt that the story was dragging on. "
— Steven, 1/22/2013" A bit disappointed in this one "
— Shawn, 1/17/2013" Ridiculously preachy in spots and sometimes I just wanted to kick Richard in the teeth so he would stop talking...but I still really enjoyed it. "
— Caroline, 7/13/2012" excellent book! cant wait to read confessor! "
— I.B.M., 5/3/2012" I love this entire series, I just can't get enough. "
— Molly, 4/12/2012" This is where The Sword of Truth starts to trail off my interest. You'll see what I mean. If you wanna finish the series, go for it. But you won't miss out on much if you don't. "
— Christopher, 2/22/2012" A continuation of the Sword of Truth series so of course it's great literature! However, I was unsatisfied with the abrupt ending... it wasn't even a cliffhanger! It just kind of ended without good cause. "
— Caleigh, 11/9/2011" The story begins picking up speed to the final book. "
— Remy, 10/16/2011" I liked how things are becoming full circle with Wizard's First Rule, and how Goodkind is revisiting past moments. "
— Travis, 7/18/2011" I'll save my comments for the last book of the series..... "
— Carol, 5/19/2011" This book was a little bit more challenging. It was "heavy" but I could, none the less, put it down. "
— Julie, 4/25/2011" I like how the mysteries get solved and the tangled web all fits together. However, I am so sick of Jagang. Argh! :) "
— Tracy, 4/6/2011" (Tom)<br/><br/>Good vs Evil Life vs Death<br/>Richard(Wizard in training) and Kahlan(Mother Confessor) save THEIR world. "
— Toni, 3/29/2011" A good continuation, since I've now listened to 9 books in this series I do find the inclusion of backstory tedious at times, but I still enjoyed it, there are still strong points that I get fully wrapped up in the drama. "
— Kevin, 3/27/2011" I love this entire series, I just can't get enough. "
— Molly, 3/12/2011" This book started to get good. "
— Joe, 3/7/2011" i was surprised to find out that this actually had more content than fluff, and the content was indeed fun!<br/>one star off for ending in the middle of a story though "
— matejcik, 2/24/2011" Holy crap Goodkind! Anyone who has read this far knows that the people of the Imperial Order are a-holes. I don't need to listen to it described for four hours straight. "
— Josh, 2/5/2011" This one pulled my back into loving the series. "
— Justine, 12/31/2010" It's still basically just building up to the (hopefully) big finale! Time to find out how it all ends! "
