Title: Goodkind progresses nicely
Review: I was quite pleased with Terry Goodkind's latest effort; Blood of the Fold. The third book in the Sword of Truth series, Blood of the Fold shows Goodkind's development as a writer. Gone are the rough edges and occasional pointless scenes that sometimes broke the mood of the first two books. Blood of the Fold is nicely contained, all of the plot lines come together well in the end. I was somewhat disapointed that Kahlan and Zedd did not play a bigger role and the ending lacked some of the punch that it was intended to have. Too many events happening too quickly took away from the suspense of the final battle. Overall, I found Blood of the Fold to be the best of the Sword of Truth series. Goodkind's world is richly detailed and I could easily lose myself in it. If his progress as a writer continues, the Temple of the Winds should be well worth reading
