Taken captive by their enemies, King Grieve, along with Lila and Bannon are about to discover the terrifying force that threatens to bring destruction to the Old World.

Il y a très longtemps, avant la création de la Frontière, la guerre faisait rage entre D'Hara et les Contrées du Milieu. Dans ce climat inquiétant, une jeune femme se rendit dans la cité d'Aydindril pour obtenir une audience avec le Premier Sorcier. Elle s'appelait Abby et venait lui demander de sauver les habitants de son village. Il s'appelait Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander et sa lutte contre la dangereuse magie de Panis Rahl allait prendre un nouveau tournant.

Into Darkness is the fifth episode in Terry Goodkind's new serial novel, The Children of D'Hara. Told in irresistibly intense installments, this is the story of a world confronted by an apocalyptic nightmare. The insatiable hunger of Golden Goddess.... The irresistible power of a Witch's Oath.... A fracture in the world of life.... An opening in the world of death.... Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell face the perfect storm.

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. Following an inner prompting beyond all reason, the last Confessor will wager everything on a final desperate gambit, and in so doing, she will change the world forever.

Nommé ambassadeur itinérant par Richard, Nathan Rahl, son lointain ancêtre, entend porter haut les couleurs de D'Hara. Le connaissant bien - et depuis près de deux siècles -, Nicci craint surtout que le flamboyant sorcier n'aille à la rencontre de bien des ennuis. Consciente de ne plus avoir vraiment sa place auprès du Sourcier, elle décide d'accompagner le vieil homme. Nathan commence fort : une visite à Rouge, la voyante, qui s'empresse de le charger d'une mystérieuse mission aux confins de l'Ancien Monde.

Les hommes et les femmes libres sombrent peu à peu dans les ténèbres. Presque submergés par les forces de la destruction, ils ne sont plus assez forts pour empêcher l'avènement d'un nouveau monde de cruauté. Bien qu'il soit à la tête des forces de la liberté, Richard sait qu'il ne doit pas empêcher le destin de s'accomplir.

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.

Richard knew that there would be no help coming. It was all up to him to stop the threat or Kahlan would die. They all would die. Nine companions - Richard, Kahlan, the witch woman Shale and six Mord-Sith, Rikka, Vale, Cassia, Nyda, Berdine and Vika - are hunting a warlock in the waterlogged depths of the People's Palace. It will take all their skills to close on their quarry, but do any of them understand the true power of a Witch's Oath?

Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell are fighting on all fronts. The Golden Goddess, Collector of Worlds, has infiltrated the People's Palace, able to insinuate herself into the minds of those without the gift of magic.

Trouble always finds Angela Constantine. And Angela's impulsive, hot-tempered colleague Wanda is about to cause more trouble than anyone could know. Except Angela. She's not like the rest of us. She sees things we don't - she can recognize a killer just by looking in their eyes. And Angela knows that sooner or later, one way or another, everyone pays for their sins. She'll make certain of it.

When Angela was young, before she came to realize she had a rare ability, she was a rather ordinary girl. At least, that was what everyone said. But Angela is anything but ordinary.

The formidable sorceress Nicci and her companions—the newly powerless Nathan and the youthful Bannon—set out on another quest after driving ruthless Norukai slavers out of Renda Bay. Their mission: restore Nathan’s magic and, for Nicci, save the world. Guided by the witch-woman Red’s mysterious prophecy, the trio makes their way south of Kol Adair towards a wondrous city shrouded behind time, Ildakar.

The Sorceress Nicci, the Wizard Nathan Rahl, and the young swordsman Bannon remain in the legendary city of Ildakar after a great internal revolt has freed the slaves and brought down the powerful wizards council. But as he fled the city, capricious Wizard Commander Maxim dissolved the petrification spell that had turned to stone the invading army of General Utros fifteen centuries earlier. Now, hundreds of thousands of half-stone soldiers from the ancient past have awakened, led by one of the greatest enemy commanders in history.

One-time 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 stabilized, Nicci has set out on her own for new adventures.

The Sun People are bound by an ancient law, left by the long-vanished Sky People: They must never kill. To other tribes, who have no such law, the Sun People are easy prey who will not defend themselves. Their game is poached, their stores raided, their women abducted, their men are killed for sport. But when Raging River and her sister are attacked by a Wolf People raiding party, River fights back and kills one of the warriors. Worse, she has killed the son of their chief.
