With brand-new art and handsome new packaging, Naked Empire, the eighth book in Terry Goodkind's fabulously popular Sword of Truth series, is now available in a new trade paperback edition.

Richard Rahl has been poisoned. Saving an empire from annihilation is the price of the antidote. With the shadow of death looming near, the empire crumbling before the invading hordes, and time running out, Richard is offered not only his own life but the salvation of a people, in exchange for delivering his wife, Kahlan, into bondage to the enemy.
