 |
|
Hello all,
I am selling the Sword of Truth novel series before I leave next month. Bought the first 9 in a box set about two years ago after the TV series and heard from a few friends that it was good, they didn't disappoint. Books are in excellent conditions, I read most of them once (the last few I never got a chance to read).
If you like epic fantasy then check it out. Books are usually around the 800 page mark so will keep you going for a while!

If you are interested in buying them then let me know. |

| The first several books are very good. Later, the author stops hiding his basic "Ayn Rand"-iness, and they kind of start to suck. Plot and character development kind of take a back seat to the philosophy of objectivism at that point. |

This happens after book 9 right?  |

Great series nonetheless. I'd recommend anyone to buy it.
However, it does get REALLY preachy after a few books. I still got as far as book 6 or 7 despite that. |
