Alfredo Lazcano _azcano_ — Dr. Annick Swenson is working in the Brazilian jungle on a drug that could change the lives of women beyond imagination. She is a difficult woman to deal with though and refuses to communicate with the pharmaceutical company financing her research, doesn’t share any of her findings and stays silent about any progress she might be making. Frustrated, the company sends out one of its researchers, Anders Eckman, to find doctor Swenson and get answers from her. Months later a short, uninformative letter reports that Eckman has died of a fever and has been buried. Marina Singh was Eckman’s colleague and used to be a student of Dr. Swenson. Both the pharmaceutical company and Eckman’s wife are leaning on her to go to Brazil and find answers for them. The company still wants to know about the research they’re funding while the wife needs answers about her husbands death and funeral. Reluctantly Marina, who is fighting her own demons, starts what will turn out to be a long journey, first to find her way to Dr. Swenson and then to find the answers her need. But once she finds herself in the jungle things start changing for Marina. Her loyalties shift, her priorities change and if she does make it out of in the jungle in one piece she will be a different woman. This is a fascinating book. I was intrigued by the characters and what they were facing from the very first page. Ann Patchett has a way with words that pushes me forward through the story. At several times I found myself torn between wanting to rush along in order to find out what was going to happen, where the story was leading, and wanting to take it slow so that I could give the wonderful words, sentences and constructions all the attention they deserved. All sorts of questions are raised in this book; questions about motivation, about the rights and wrongs in living with and interfering in a different, less advanced community. We’re left wondering about obsession and whether the end always justifies the means. This story and the issues it raises will stay for a long time, and I can see myself reading it again at some point in the future because I feel that in the end I did read it faster than I should have.

Peter Duong peterduong — Let the waiting begin...

Julian Tillman famousju4dd1 — The Third Policeman is an absurdist fable about hell ... but I've already said too much. I found it because it was apparently highly influential to the writers of Lost (and it shows ... in a particularly strange and chilling way). Highly recommended to people who have a thing for bicycles...

Martín Ivan ivanca89 — This is somewhere between four and five stars for me, though I think the tendency toward the fifth star is because I'm just so darn happy to be back in D'Hara with Richard and Kahlan. I'm gonna go old school with a pro-con list on this review. Let's start with the bad news, because, frankly, there's very little of it. CONS: The trouble all starts the day after Cara's wedding? *sad wail* I really thought we were settling in for a good long period of peace and prosperity after all that Jagang mess. I understand the gathering as a vehicle for the diplomats to be in the palace- but I wish it had been handled differently. Have Richard host an annual summit of his leaders or something. A couple of weird copy-edit things slipped through. One sentence near the beginning had six (6!) prepositional phrases... that's a lot. Little things like that sprinkled through that affected the overall pace of the story, because they pulled you out of it in order to figure what the heck we're talking about. PROS: It's freaking Richard & Kahlan. The pace of this novel was tighter, like a blend of Goodkind and James Patterson, than previous tomes. (Bad example, because I don't particularly love Patterson, but there's no denying the frenzied feeling his books convey, and mixing a dash of the freneticism in with a more complex, tightly woven story was a good move.) The aforementioned complex, tightly woven story. This is one of my favorite things about Goodkind. He reveals the villain early on, so we see a lot of the "behind the scenes" stuff happening, and we are able to piece the story together along with our heroes, instead of getting a humongous blow-by-blow at the end. A new, believable villain. Jagang has been defeated, and this isn't a Hydra-esque reincarnation of his empire. It's not a new branch of the Imperial Order, it's a whole new villain, one who watched that skirmish from afar and is now stepping forward. I was relieved to see this- too many authors fall back on the first big, bad guy. The violence was tempered this time around. Still definitely "adult" but not so brutal as the previous stories, and I liked the change in scenery. I don't know where most other people stand on this, I haven't checked the other reviews yet, but I actually liked the sci-fi twist on it. There is, indeed, a machine involved in this story, which (when the title was revealed) I was skeptical about. A machine? In high fantasy? Is he going steampunk on us? No. He's not. It fits and I liked it. The political and social commentary returns, and in an interesting twist. Where there had been bad guys declaring "THIS IS MY WAY!" against Richard saying "THIS IS MY WAY! NOW WE WILL BATTLE!" there is instead whisperings, back room deals and subtle plays of power. The reader may know this person is on the wrong side, but nobody else in the room/story does and it makes for an interesting conversation. If you're a fan of Goodkind, this is a must read. If you have sort of enjoyed some of his work in the past, but aren't a big fan, I submit that you should give him another try this time around. The narrative is cleaner, the pace is faster, the story complex without being overwhelming. You do need to have read Wizard's First Rule to understand this book, but anything beyond that isn't completely necessary: this is a whole new series. It is the start of a new series (3 books at least, I heard? Somebody correct me if necessary.) and while the end is tied off neat enough for me, there will be those who do not like the fact that there is most definitely a sequel coming. I wouldn't call it a cliff hanger, but... a cliff-stradler? PARENTAL ADVISORIES Sex 2/5: Lustful forms, some kissing among tangled sheets, a mention of being distracted on one's wedding night, one fade-to-black makeout scene. Violence 5/5: Brutal violence is the modus operandi for Goodkind, and this is no different. A pack of savage hounds are attacking, and they leave horrific deaths in their wake: including one of a very pregnant woman and her unborn baby (this one is described in the most detail of them all). Some people resort to murder and suicide to avoid the dogs. Some super scary things-are-watching-us-in-the-dark scenes. Dark magic is used in a violent way to slowly drain hundreds of victims of their blood. An attempted assassination. We see the Mord Sith in action very little, but they are there. Language 1/5: One b-word, that actually serves a purpose. Substance Abuses 1/5: Some wine is served at a feast, a couple drink wine together.
