Synopsis This epic fantasy is the ninth installment in the Sword of Truth saga, and the first volume of a trilogy intended to wrap up the larger series. During a battle, Lord Richard Rahl is critically wounded by a crossbow bolt. After days of magical healing, Richard finally wakes up, asking for his wife, Mother Confessor Kahlan. However, no one even remembers that Richard ever had a wife and everyone is convinced that Richard dreamed her up during his difficult recovery. While Richard's friends attempt to cure him of his apparent delusion, Richard searches for proof of Kahlan's existence and the conspirators who have robbed the world of her memory--because remembering Kahlan may be not only the key to Richard's happiness, but the key to the structure of reality itself.

Publisher's Note With WIZARD'S FIRST RULE and seven subsequent masterpieces, Terry Goodkind has thrilled readers worldwide with the unique sweep of his storytelling. Now Goodkind returns with a new novel of Richard and Kahlan, the beginning of a sequence of three novels that will bring their epic story to its culmination.
After being gravely injured in battle, Richard awakes to discover Kahlan missing. To his disbelief no one remembers the woman he is frantically trying to find. Worse, no one believes that she really exists, or that he was ever married. Alone as never before, he must find the woman he loves more than life itself....if she is even alive. If she was ever even real.
