Death's Mistress
Death's Mistress: Sister of Darkness: The Nicci Chronicles | Terry Goodkind
13 posts | 8 read | 2 reading | 18 to read
Onetime lieutenant of the evil Emperor Jagang, known as "Death's Mistress" and the "Slave Queen", the deadly Nicci captured Richard Rahl in order to convince him that the Imperial Order stood for the greater good. But it was Richard who converted Nicci instead, and for years thereafter she served Richard and Kahlan as one of their closest friends--and one of their most lethal defenders. Now, with the reign of Richard and Kahlan finally stablized, Nicci has set out on her own for new adventures. Her first job being to keep the unworldly prophet Nathan out of trouble... Death's Mistress: Sister of Darkness will launch The Nicci Chronicles, Terry Goodkind's entirely new series with a cast of characters centered on one of his best-loved characters in the now-concluded Sword of Truth. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Went to a party last night to celebrate Jared's birthday with some of his friends. I'm definitely glad I finally got to meet them, and I'm super happy they have inducted me as a part of their little family! They are AMAZING people and I love them already. Sadly, all the excitement caused a severe Fibro flare up and I had to call into work. What better to do while bed ridden than to read "Death's Mistress?"

Decided to go back to the fantasy genre while finishing "The Book Thief." So, I'm starting this book up!

I wanted to do the #Decinbooks17 and I almost forgot!!!! In my defense, I‘ve been sick for two weeks (yikes!) and have been the most scatter brained. I haven‘t prepped for any up-and-coming new December reads, but I have one preorder and that is the paperback of Death‘s Mistress by Terry Goodkind. He has an amazingly wonderful fantasy series that spans 15 books and several spin-offs in the same universe and This is the latest of them. Yay!!!

SandyW Hope you are feeling better! 6y

Glad my partner doesn't have Litsy, means I can share his Christmas presents with you! He's a Terry Goodkind nut but hasn't read these yet. I have the second on pre order for him too. It's so pretty! 😍

Tamra Very alluring cover! 6y
laurieluna @Tamra isn't it? Almost makes me want to tackle all of his other works fo read it. I've attempted Sword of Truth 2 times so far and haven't gotten past book 5 yet. They're so long 😩. The second book is the same layout but in red. So different from the other Goodkind's we have. And theres only going to be 2 books from what I can see, again unusual for Goodkind 😂 6y
Lizpixie You‘re so lucky to have a partner that reads. My hubby doesn‘t read at all, growing up dyslexic in 1970s Australia has made him ashamed of himself for too long. He calls himself dumb and says that he cried when I said yes to marrying him because we‘d have kids that could read and that‘s something he thought he‘d never have. Broke my heart. I have helped encourage him and he reads & writes 200% better than he did but he still thinks he‘s stupid.💔 6y

laurieluna @Lizpixie my partner struggles too! But reading has helped him. His spelling has improved so much too because I have spell checked everything for him for the past 8 years and he's picked up correct spellings from me. His school was a guinea pig school for the phonics teaching method a couple of decades ago and now he spells out things how they sound in his head (perl instead of pearl etc) and so also has some difficulty reading. 6y
laurieluna @Lizpixie and lucky?! When he's home it's like I have 2.4 children 😉 but I do love him. 6y
Ms_T Lovely gift! 6y
laurieluna @Ms_T hope so. He's so hard to buy for. Blurays, books and socks are pretty much it 😂 6y
HelloImJez That cover is so lovely! I'm sure he's gonna love it! 6y
laurieluna @HelloImJez the binding is beautiful too, white with silver writing on the spine 😍 6y
HelloImJez @miralunasbooknook Aaaahhh so gorgeous! They say not to judge a book by it's cover but how can you not when covers like this exist?! 😅 6y
laurieluna @HelloImJez yep. A fair few of the books on my shelves have been cover buys 😂 6y
HelloImJez @miralunasbooknook Same... And I feel no guilt 😈 6y

This was a really good story but it wasn't EPIC like others in The Sword of Truth series. I look forward to the next one.

Whenever I sit down with a book by one of my all time favourite authors I just sigh and think "hello old friend" ?

I made a special trip to the bookstore on the way home from work tonight just for this. Nicci, my favorite character from the Sword of Truth series finally has her own series! :-) Couldn't be more excited!
