Resumen del Editor

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Terry Goodkind comes The First Confessor, the prequel to the Sword of Truth series.

In a time before legends had yet been born....

Married to the powerful leader of her people, safe among those gifted with great ability, Magda Searus is protected from a distant world descending into war. But when her husband, a man who loved life and loved her, unexpectedly commits suicide, she suddenly finds herself alone. Because she is ungifted herself, without her husband she no longer has standing among her people, and she finds herself isolated in a society that seems to be crumbling around her.

Despite her grief, she is driven to find the reasons behind why her husband would do such a thing - why he would abandon her and her people at such a profoundly dangerous time. Though she is not gifted, she begins to discover that there may be more to her husband's suicide than anyone knew. What she finds next, no one is willing to believe.

Without anyone to help her, she knows that she must embark on a mission to find a mysterious spiritist, if she even exists, so that she may speak with the dead. This quest may also be her last chance to unravel what is really behind the mysterious events befalling her people. What she discovers along the way is that the war is going far worse than she had known, and that the consequences of defeat will be more terrifying for her and her people than she could have imagined.

As mortal peril begins to close in around her, Magda learns that she is somehow the key to her people's salvation.

Journey with Magda Searus into her dark world, and learn how true legends are born.

What a woman!

Love now knowing more of Magda. Also being able to attach bits and pieces to the previous books was very satisfying. will listen to it again very soon.

Amazing

A perfect prequel that tells the story I wanted to hear ever since learning of the first confessor! and the narrator is possibly the best I have heard in the entirety of the series so far!

A must read prequel.

provides great back story to the series.

loved the performance and it was best to have a woman's voice.

Amazing

Such a beautiful story! The First Confessor closes soo many gaps and questions that went unanswered!

Christina did this book absolute justice in her performance!

I highly recommend this book to ALL Terry Goodkind fans, sword of truth fans, and fantasy fans in general!

Brings the Series Full Circle

This story is a masterpiece. If you are a long time reader of the series you will be in for many fulfilling moments. Don’t delay reading or listening today. Just do it. You’ll thank yourself later.

wow

I want to listen to the whole series of Kalan and Richard all over again. The sword of Truth explained. Great story!!0

The First Confessor

This is my first Audio Book .. Looking forward to more to Audio Books from this Author. Christina's narration is great!

Always a great book

I have listened to all of the books that have been written by this author. All have been great and this one is no exception. Hope there are more to come!!

One of the Best Preformances of the Entire Series!

I laughed, I cried, I invested so much into these characters. Being able to have so much explained from the original series has been so satisfying. And although I am left wanting more, it was shear perfection in its simplicity. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I do and will for years to come. This is my 3rd time rereading/listening to it.

Read this instead of omen machine!

This was an amazing book to tie into the sword of truth series. The SoT series should've stopped with confessor and then recommended this book. It tied in all you learned from SoT, but you see it from its origin. Omen machine = not good. This book = great!
