The First Confessor (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

I have loved every entry in Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series, but the honest truth is I wasn't sure what to expect from Terry's first self-published ebook. It was a new experience for us both, me as a reader, and Terry as an author. But after just minutes with The First Confessor I was roped right back into the lovable and memorable world Terry Goodkind has created. Even without Richard and Kahlan present, the story of Magda and Merrit is just as endearing and these two characters are just as likable. Magda is as strong and determined as Kahlan and Merrit is as noble and chivalrous as Richard. I feel that Terry Goodkind was able to write this ebook with apparent freedom from any restraints that may come along with a publishing company. To be fair, I know little to nothing about publishing but I do know that they have some control over the final product whether it be good or bad. But here with The First Confessor I felt that the story being told was going exactly where Terry wanted it to go and never let up, was simplified, or was rushed, whatever was happening. This is a book written from the heart with no strings attached and it is so evident that it's one of Terry's most loved works. this book is a fantastic concept, and if you ignore some of the dialog between characters, is a pretty good story. This book explains much about the past of Aydindril and the new/old worlds, the war and the creation of many of the forms of magic encountered in SoT series. However, it was not well executed. The characters go back and forth in a conversation, saying the exact same thing, over and over, for pages at points...it was a bit painful in parts. Due to this Magda Searus is painted as a bit of a bumbling moron. Wizard Meritt is a great character, but unfortunately falls victim to the same repetition, especially when conversing with Magda Searus.
