She runs right into Richard Cypher, a trail guide (and the Seeker, though unbeknownst to himself and everyone else). Kahlan breaks through the magical barriers separating the lands and stumblesВ into Westland while being pursued by DвЂ™Haran assassins. Only he knows who the true Seeker isвЂ¦or something like that.

But first, Kahlan must find a powerful wizard who lives in Westland. The story opens with Kahlan Amnell, a Confessor (a powerful mage of high ranking), on her way to find the Seeker (find the SeekerвЂ¦hah) to bring him back to the Midlands so he can fulfill his destiny, defeat Rahl, and bring peace to all the lands. DвЂ™Hara is ruled by theВ evil tyrant Darken Rahl who is in the process of taking over the Midlands and has plans to breach the magical barriers separating DвЂ™Hara and the Midlands from Westland (or is it Heartland? ItвЂ™s called the Heartland in the show, I thinkвЂ¦ I donвЂ™t remember).

The world is divided into three lands: Westland, the Midlands, and DвЂ™Hara. So basically classic fantasy plot with a classic fantasy setting (with some interesting embellishment). ThereвЂ™s some action and some interesting things happening that gradually build up to more action and those interesting things coming to a head as the story unfolds. WizardвЂ™s First Rule starts out okay but kind of slow. After watching a couple of episodes of Legend of the Seeker*, I became interested in the Sword of Truth series and had to pick up the first book.
