The skin of Alex’s arms tingled with goose bumps. By her twenty-seventh birthday insanity had come to his mother….
Turning twenty-seven may be terrifying for some, but for Alex, a struggling artist living in the mid-western United States, it is cataclysmic.

A target for extreme and uncompromising violence…
Where do you turn when your own reflection spells doom?

So... I was pretty mad in the beginning because I was under the impression that this book was a separate entity from the sword of truth series... It is not separate at all. In fact it's a book that answers the question what happens a millennia after Richard Rahl creates the parallel universe for all the pristinely UN-gifted and magic haters. In a nut shell.. Our world/realm as we know it..

I've read his series of Lord Rahl and loved the detail. The way he tied the world of magic to our wotld was ingenious. I highly recommend, especially if you've read his series on Lord Rahl and Mother Confessor. Read it.....enjoy.
