Debt of Bones is a novella written by Terry Goodkind that takes place in his Sword of Truth universe. It does not stand on its own as a work in that assumes a reader-familiarity with the world and various peoples and cultures. Ordinarily, this would be a severe criticism. However, this novella was commissioned specifically for a collection of novellas by favorite authors, set in their favorite universe, for the fans of that universe.
As such, I would not recommend reading this book to anyone that has not read at least the first 6 Sword of Truth novels. In addition, there's not a lot of book to justify a hardcover purchase. Get the paperback instead.
For fans of the series, this story delivers all the best features of Goodkind's heros--self-reliance, clever, unexpected risks, lucid reasoning, and awesome power.
