Stone of Tears

Terry Goodkind's Stone of Tears is the second installment in his "Sword of Truth" book series. After defeating Darken Rahl, Richard has now become a Rahl himself and has discovered that being the Seeker is not his only destiny. Upon learning of his new found power and the destruction he unintentionally caused by destroying Darken Rahl, Richard must now leave with The Sisters of the Light in hopes of controlling this new found power and also saving the world from utter destruction at the hands of the Underworld's Keeper. Can he succeed once again, or are his abilities going to be thwarted? 


Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was rather lengthy and some parts moved slowly (or so it seemed, it could be because I got in a phase of where I didn't want to read), but the slow parts were essential to the overall story and its ending. Once again, there is love, destruction, torment, hope, loss, and many other elements that the reader will experience throughout the events that fill the pages of this book. The end picked up considerably and I found myself holding back some tears as I reached it. It was a very good read and I cannot wait to read the next installment of the book.
