Debt of Bones - Book Review
One of the most interesting Terry Goodkind novels settled in the world of The Sword of Truth except that it’s set in an alternative time frame from the rest of The Sword of Truth storyline. Debt of Bones focus more on the First Wizard Zeddicus Z’ul Zorander but through the eyes of a non gifted individual a woman by the name Abigail who explores the world of magic after the D’Hara kidnapped her daughter and husband & destroyed her village. The center of the story focus on the interaction between Abby and the First Wizard and how two different individuals can work together to improve the world even if the have little in common. Debt of Bones is a good novella to start with the series of The Sword of Truth because it offers a good way to introduce to the reader to the universe created by Terry Goodkind and as many novels by Terry it includes heavy elements of “objectivism” where reality it’s explored through epistemology and Metaphysical concepts of the spiritual world and the empiric world much like people of the Renaissance were trying to put peace between spirituality and science.
I really think this is one of Terry’s best work so far and I highly recommend reading Debt of Bones if you want to be initialized to Terry Goodkind work.
