Review Summaries
"Richard Rahl, Lord of D'Hara, the Seeker of Truth, has been poisoned.
Naked Empire reveals that, following on from the title of Goodkind's previous book, there are many more Pillars of Creation than previously thought. In fact, an entire empire.
These people are invaded and enslaved by the Imperial Order and incapable of defending themselves.
Instead they poison the man who people say brings freedom to all, Richard Rahl, and blackmail him by offering him the antidote in exchange for his aid against their oppressors...
