Richard Cypher vivait paisiblement dans la forêt jusqu'au jour où son destin est bouleversé par une belle inconnue. Celle-ci ne consent à lui dire que son nom : Kahlan. Lui sait dès le premier regard, qu'il ne pourra plus la quitter. Mais des créatures monstrueuses traquent l'étrangère et le danger rôde en Hartland. Pour la sauver, Richard devra porter l'"Épée de vérité" et s'opposer à Darken Rahl, le mage dictateur. Ainsi commence une extraordinaire quête à travers les ténèbres. Au nom de l'amour. À n'importe quel prix.

In a world as rich and real as our own, Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell stand against the ancient forces which besiege the New World - forces so terrible that when last they threatened, they could only be withstood by sealing off the Old World from whence they came. Now the barrier has been breached, and the New World is again beset by their evil power.

A Sister of the Dark captures Richard and takes him deep into the Old World, to the very heart of the Order, while his beloved Kahlan remains behind. Free because of Richard's sacrifice for her, but unwilling to abandon the cause of the Midlands, Kahlan violates not only prophecy but her last pledge to Richard and raises an army against the advancing horde of the Imperial Order.

Descending into darkness, about to be overwhelmed by evil, those people still free are powerless to stop the coming dawn of a savage new world, while Richard faces the guilt of knowing that he must let it happen. Alone, he must bear the weight of a sin he dare not confess to the one person he loves…and has lost. Join Richard and Kahlan in the concluding novel of one of the most remarkable and memorable journeys ever written. It started with one rule, and will end with the rule of all rules, the rule unwritten, the rule unspoken since the dawn of history.

The dangerous, fanatical Imperial Order, under the leadership of the power-mad Emperor Jagang and his multitude of demonic underlings, unleashes a deadly plague. To find a cure, Richard Cypher and his beloved Kahlan Amnell must seek out the legendary Temple of the Winds, a fortress of evil sealed away for three thousand years. But the path of the Seeker of Truth is never an easy one - even if he can reach the Temple at all, there is no guarantee he'll ever return.

La barrière qui séparait l'Ancien et le Nouveau Monde a été brisée. Des forces anciennes viennent assiéger les Contrées du Milieu. Des forces si terrifiantes que, la dernière fois qu'elles ont frappé, il y a 3000 ans, on n'a pu les repousser qu'en murant l'Ancien Monde à l'aide d'une barrière magique infranchissable. À présent celle-ci n'est plus, et Richard Rahl et Kahlan Amnell sont les seuls à pouvoir faire face aux puissances maléfiques qui vont déferler et empêcher une apocalypse d'une sauvagerie inimaginable.

"'You knew they were there, didn't you?' Kahlan asked in a hushed tone as she leaned closer. Against the darkening sky, she could just make out the shapes of three black-tipped races taking to wing, beginning their nightly hunt. That was why he'd stopped. That was what he'd been watching as the rest of them waited in uneasy silence."

La victoire de Richard, Zedd et Kahlan a déchiré le voile qui sépare le monde des vivants et le royaume des morts. Et si Richard refuse d'être un magicien, il n'en subit pas moins les conséquences liées à ce don : renier son héritage le condamne non seulement lui mais aussi le monde. Une seule personne détient le pouvoir de lui faire accepter ce qu'il abhorre : Kahlan, la Mère Inquisitrice. Pour sauver Richard et son peuple, elle devra tout sacrifier et déclencher une guerre qui emportera tous ceux qu'elle aime. Malheur à celui qui néglige la Deuxième Leçon du sorcier.

"L'épée de vérité" en main, Richard a combattu la mort en personne. Mais à présent l'empereur Jagang, puissant jusqu'à la démence, lui oppose un ennemi insaisissable : une horrible maladie qui frappe des milliers de victimes innocentes. Richard se met en quête du remède mais selon une fatale prophétie, il devra perdre la femme qu'il aime, ou sa propre vie. Richard et Kahlan vont pourtant tout risquer pour mettre au jour la source du fléau : une magie enfermée depuis trois mille ans dans le "Temple des vents".

All is lost. Evil will soon consume the D'Haran Empire. Richard Rahl lies on his funeral bier. It is the end of everything. Except what isn't lost is Kahlan Amnell.

From the far reaches of the D'Haran Empire, Bishop Hannis Arc and the ancient Emperor Sulachan lead a vast horde of Shun-Tuk and other depraved "half-people" into the Empire's heart, raising an army of the dead in order to threaten the world of the living. Meanwhile, far from home, Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell must defend themselves and their followers from a series of terrifying threats, despite a magical sickness that depletes their strength and which, if not cured, will take their lives...sooner rather than later.

Kahlan est aux portes de la mort. Richard qui, plus que quiconque, se méfie des prophéties, a soudain une vision : il doit emmener Kahlan à l'écart de l'armée qui les protège et abandonner son peuple à son funeste destin. Kahlan refuse cependant d'abandonner la cause des Contrées du Milieu. Elle viole la prophétie et rompt le dernier serment qu'elle avait fait à Richard. Au bout du compte, elle se retrouvera face à l'architecte de la terreur qui balaie le pays : l'empereur fou, Jagang, celui qui marche dans les rêves, qui a juré de déverser sa rage sur le Nouveau Monde.

On raconte que les trois Carillons volent les âmes des vivants et absorbent la magie du monde ! Richard, Kahlan et Zedd vont se lancer dans une effrayante quête. S'ils perdaient leurs pouvoirs magiques, comment pourraient-ils s'opposer aux hordes du terrible empereur Jagang ?

Kahlan has at last gained the one goal she had always thought was beyond her grasp...love. Against all odds, the ancient bonds of secret oaths, and the dark talents of men long dead, Richard has won her heart. Amid sudden and disastrous events, Richard's life is called due to satisfy those treacherous oaths. To save his life, Kahlan must forsake Richard's love and cast him into the chains of slavery, knowing there could be no sin worse than such a betrayal.
