To those of you who have read the previously entered reviews of Legends 1,2, and3 and found them less than satisfactory. You must remember that the Legend series orriginally came out as a hardcover book comprising all three books. Do not judge 2 and 3 compared to 1. they are all the same book just in different parts so as to make it easier to publish in paperback form. All the stories in the Legends series are great back ground stories from our favorite series. Look for the Authors you read and enjoy the ones you haven't read. Who knows you might like their stories too.

5 Stars for The Hedge Knight! Most of the other stories were ok, but The Hedge Knight was amazing work, up to Martin's standard of excellence - again, perfectly paced story, with good humor, good twists and excellent storytelling. The book is worth buying just for this great tale!And, if you haven't read A Game of Thrones or A Clash of Kings - it will convince you to! It is said that we find out what happened to the main character in The Hedge Knight in Martin's 3rd book from A Song of Ice and Fire Series, A Storm of Swords.
Definitely a hit!

I would reccomend this book for the sole purpose of reading Terry Goodkind. He is a great author who stands above all the others, with the possible exception of David Eddings. I think if you want to read a good book you should read this one, mainly because of Goodkinds work in writing the story of the origin of the boundary put up by the First Wizard Zeddicus Z'ul Zorander to protect the people of Westland and the Midlands from the threat of the D'Haran Empire, ruled by Darken Rahl the son of Panis Rahl an evil man who dabbles in dark secrets. Another book I would reccomend is any book written by Goodkind.
Goodkind Rocks

This book deserves a lot more credit than it was given. The Terry Goodkind story is worth buying even if you don't like the other stories. I highly reccomend this book to any fantasy fan and to anyone who can appreciate a great story.
