Amazon.com Review
Seven books into his Sword of Truth series, author Terry Goodkind continues to expand and enlarge the fantasy realm D'Hara. But with the Pillars of Creation he takes a detour from his usual approach, leaving his primary protagonists in the background to spin a story of one woman's battle to discover the truth of her heritage.
Told in vivid and often gruesome detail, Goodkind's fable grabs the reader with a familiar archetypal theme: a young woman, Darken Rahl's illegitimate daughter Jennsen, flees her home in the wake of murderous forces rising from her lineage. She runs in the shadows of Lord Richard Rahl's domain with a spy sent by Emperor Jagang, the enemy of D'Hara. With his help, she journeys across the entire realm, chasing rumor and misinformation to ultimately discover the truth of her heritage.
Loyal readers, who know the truth that Jennsen seeks, may find this book tedious as they wonder when Lord Richard Rahl and Mother Confessor Kahlan are going to swoop in and save the day. But Goodkind appears to be challenging readers, and perhaps himself, to see the benevolent administration of Richard Rahl from its underside and from an opposition perspective. The change in perspective works up to a point. Goodkind has created a fast-paced adventure story that might be appreciated by diehard fans if they can leave their longing for the status quo at the door. --Jeremy Pugh
From Publishers Weekly
Fantasy bestseller Goodkind brings his usual strong sense of place and distinct characterization to his seventh sprawling novel in the popular Sword of Truth series, though the action, too often discussed rather than shown, takes a while to warm up. The struggle continues between the New World's Seeker of Truth, Lord Richard Rahl, and the Old World's totalitarian leader, Emperor Jagang "the Just," against the dry and barren beauty of the desert landscape. After deposing his father, old Lord Rahl, Richard lingers in the background at his immense fortress. Meanwhile, battling for power are the bastards that old Rahl has also sired, notably Richard's oafish lout of a half-brother, Oba, who tries to murder his way to the throne. Taking center stage is the vengeful Jennsen, who wants to kill Richard because she blames him for her mother's murder. Of course, Richard isn't the villain she takes him for, though Jennsen is slow to catch on. Amid the interminable sword-and-sorcery in the tradition of Robert E. Howard (Howard would have especially appreciated the huge serpent with which Oba and Jennsen contend), the author spouts his familiar political pieties. Lip service may be paid to public good, but passion arises only in scenes of violence. For all its clumsy exposition, unlikely coincidences and feeble attempts at humor, this latest installment, with its striking jacket art showing a beautiful desert landscape, is as certain to please Goodkind's legions of fans as previous books in the series.

我必须赞叹作者在构建其独特的哲学体系上的雄心与功力。这本书探讨的主题并非肤浅的善恶对立，而是深入到了存在主义和宿命论的交界处。它迫使读者去审视自己对于“意义”的固有理解，并提出了一系列令人不安却又无法回避的问题。书中对时间和记忆的描绘尤其令人印象深刻，它们不是线性的存在，而是可以被重塑、被遗忘，甚至被武器化的工具。这种对时间本质的解构，让整个故事的维度都提升了一个层次。阅读过程中，我常常需要回翻前文，不是因为故事情节复杂难懂，而是因为作者抛出的概念太过于具有颠覆性，需要时间去消化和内化。它挑战了我们习以为常的因果逻辑，构建了一套自洽但又极度反直觉的规则体系。对于喜欢深度思考、热衷于概念辩论的读者来说，这本书简直就是一座知识的宝库，每一个章节都像是一次思想的交锋，让人在合书之后，依然能感觉到脑海中思维的火花在不断碰撞。
评分这本书的配角塑造堪称教科书级别，甚至可以说是超越了主角光环的亮眼存在。通常情况下，配角的作用无非是推动主角的成长或作为背景的填充，但在这里，每一个次要角色都拥有自己完整且充满张力的生命线。拿那个神秘的炼金术士来说，他或许只在全书的四分之一篇幅中出现，但其留给读者的印象，远比一些主要人物更为深刻。他的每一次出现都伴随着某种不祥的预兆或者关键性的启示，他的每一次开口都充满了双关和隐喻，让人捉摸不透其真实目的。这种对边缘人物的深度挖掘，极大地丰富了故事的层次感，让整个世界观显得无比真实和有机，仿佛每一个角落都生活着活生生的人，有着自己的欲望和秘密。作者的笔力之强悍，在于他能够用最少的笔墨，勾勒出最复杂的人性侧面，让我们不得不去思考，在宏大的历史叙事之下，那些“小人物”是如何被时代裹挟，又是如何默默地塑造着历史的走向。
评分我必须承认，这本书在某些地方的节奏处理，尤其是在处理信息量的灌输上，显得颇为“任性”，但正是这种“任性”，构成了其独一无二的魅力。它似乎并不在乎读者的即时理解，而是坚信读者有能力跟上其构建的复杂逻辑链条。书中有一段关于古代文明遗迹的描述，涉及大量的专有名词和晦涩的符号系统，我最初读得非常吃力，感觉像是直接被扔进了一本学术专著的中间。然而，当我坚持读下去，随着故事的推进，那些看似冰冷的符号开始“活”了起来，它们不再是死的知识点，而是成为了推动情节发展的关键钥匙。这种“先让你迷失，再让你顿悟”的阅读策略，极大地满足了探索欲。它拒绝喂养读者预先消化好的信息，而是鼓励读者自己去构建知识地图。对于那些渴望挑战自己阅读极限、享受从混沌中提炼秩序的读者来说，这本书提供了一种近乎苛刻却又无比回报丰厚的阅读体验，它不是在娱乐你，而是在培养你。
评分从文学语言的角度来看，这本书的文风是极其多变的，这是一种罕见的才能。有时，它的语言如同古典史诗般庄严、华丽，充满了排比和宏大的意象，读起来气势磅礴，令人心潮澎湃。然而，在描写人物内心挣扎或私密对话时，笔锋却会立刻转为一种极简主义的风格，句子短促有力，直击人心最脆弱的部分，如同冰冷的刀锋划过皮肤。这种风格上的剧烈跳跃，非但没有造成阅读上的不适，反而极大地增强了叙事的多样性和感染力。我尤其留意到作者对特定意象的反复运用，比如“潮汐”和“蚀刻”，它们在不同的情境下被赋予了全新的内涵，像一条条无形的线索，串联起整个故事的情感基调。这种对语言驾驭的炉火纯青，让每一个句子都仿佛经过了千锤百炼，拒绝任何冗余，只留下最精炼的力量。这无疑是一部值得反复品读的文本，每一次重读，都能在那些看似寻常的词句中，发现新的音乐性和韵律感。
评分这本书的叙事节奏把握得极其精妙，仿佛一位老练的指挥家在掌控着乐章的起伏。初读时，你会被那种缓慢而坚定的铺陈所吸引，作者似乎并不急于抛出核心的冲突，而是耐心地为我们构建了一个错综复杂的世界观。每一个人物的登场都经过了深思熟虑，他们的动机和背景都如同精雕细琢的艺术品，层层剥开，令人回味无穷。我尤其欣赏作者在描绘那些微小的日常细节时所展现出的细腻笔触，这些看似无关紧要的片段，实则为后来的宏大叙事埋下了无数伏笔。当故事行进到中段，那种潜藏的张力终于得到了释放，转折点来得迅疾而又合乎情理，让人不得不停下来，合上书本，整理一下纷乱的思绪。这种对情节张弛有度的控制，让阅读体验如同攀登一座高山，每一步都充满挑战，但最终的视野又是如此的开阔和震撼。它不是那种追求速度的快餐式阅读，而更像是一场精心准备的沉浸式体验，要求读者投入足够的时间和专注力，方能领略其真正的魅力所在。那些关于人性的探讨，那些在道德灰色地带游走的抉择，都被包裹在紧凑的剧情之下，既引人入胜，又发人深省。
