Terry Goodkind
A New York Times bestseller, Death’s Mistress: Sister of Darkness begins The Nicci Chronicles, Terry Goodkind’s series with a cast of characters centered on one of his best-loved characters in the now-concluded Sword of Truth.
One-time lieutenant of the evil Emperor Jagang, known as “Death’s Mistress” and the “Slave Queen”, the deadly Nicci captured Richard Rahl in order to convince him that the Imperial Order stood for the greater good. But it was Richard who converted Nicci instead, and for years thereafter she served Richard and Kahlan as one of their closest friends—and one of their most lethal defenders.
Now, with the reign of Richard and Kahlan finally stabilized, Nicci has set out on her own for new adventures. One of her jobs will be to keep her travelling companion, the unworldly prophet Nathan, out of trouble. But her real task will be to scout the far reaches of Richard Rahl’s realm. This will take her and Nathan to visit the mysterious witch-woman Red, to tangle with the street life of the port city of Tanimura, to fight lethal battles on the high seas, and ultimately to a vast magical confrontation far from home…with the future of life itself, in the Old World and the New, at stake.
Full of life and story, this is a sweeping, engaging tale in the grand Goodkind manner.

Great book, but...

The Sword of Truth series has gone through 6 different narrators, Names and places have been pronounced many different ways through out. Not sure why folks get so hung up on that. Happens in real life and we all take in stride.
Of all the books I have listened to over the years I break the narration styles into 3 categories: read out load, read to you and 'Performed'. Christina Traister does a really good job of reading the story to you, so don't listen to the naysayers Christina. It's a great way to hear a story, makes it more personal.
In short, if you are a Goodkind fan, this is more than worth the credit. If you are new to Goodkind, go back and start with Wizards First Rule, also worth the credit as most of the ones in between, besides, you'll need all of the backstory.
Decent start to a series, with GOOD narration.

What did you like best about this story?
The spunk of the two new characters.What about Christina Traister’s performance did you like?
A little distracting when she pronounces Jagang and Alterange differently from all the other audio books in the series. I don't think she previewed any of the other books. Please be consistent through a series in pronunciation.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Youth wins out over age.Any additional comments?
I wasn't sure if there was a ghost writer involved. It didn't seem like a Terry Goodkind novel.This is the first on describing sexual acts. Not that it is wrong, but it doesn't sound like Mr. Goodkind.
Not quite what I expected

But the narration was just horrible. mispronounced words mispronounce names, slight pauses in the story where you could tell they had to redo it.
I enjoyed it but the narrator tried their best to make it not so.
story is good but the duration is just bad
