Wizard’s First RuleBy: Terry Goodkind

• Wizard’s First Rule was first published in the September of 1994.

• Terry Goodkind is the #1 New York Times Bestselling Author and wrote the Fantasy novel series, The Sword Of Truth.

This fantasy novel is set not when, but where. The story takes place on one mainland, the Old World, divided into three territories. The three territories are Westland, the Midlands, and D’Hara. These three provinces are divided by magical boundaries. Westland is a land of no magic, whereas the Midlands and D’Hara are full of magic from dragons to prophecies.

The Warriors

Richard Cypher, The Seeker

Richard Cypher was a simple woods guide raised by a trader. He has known nothing of magic all his life. Now to know that he is part of an ancient prophecy, Richard has to give his all in defeating evil.

Kahlan Amnell, The Mother Confessor

Kahlan Amnell is a Confessor, a woman who has the power to make anyone do her bidding. As the last of her kind, Kahlan feels very alone and in love with Richard. She is also afraid to love him, because if she were to love him, Richard would be lost. As powerful as she is, she has one weakness, certainty.

Zeddicus Zu’l Zorander, Wizard of the First Order

Zedd is a “retired” wizard who keeps his past to himself. He used to live in the Midlands, but left to Westland once the council had made a big decision without him. As stubborn and hungry as he is, Zedd will always have room for much more.

Darken Rahl, Evil Ruler of D’Hara

Darken Rahl is a tyrannical ruler from a long line of wizard kings. As his father did, Rahl wants to conquer all. So he seeks the ultimate power source. Rahl may be very powerful, but no one can conquer prophecy.

The LegendThis story starts out with Richard, who comes upon Kahlan, neither of them knowing that she is searching for him. As friends, they go to Zedd for help to lead them to the boundary. Trying to protect himself, Richard comes face to face with a Mord’Sith, a woman soldier working for Rahl. The Mord’Sith orders Richard recite the steps to gaining control over the world to Rahl. And the ending well, it’s pretty darn interesting, I’ll tell you that. But you’ll have to know the ending for yourself. I recommend this book for anyone who likes

adventure, romance, and action.
