That's good. I suggest that when you start to read Phantom, order Confessor straight away because you really do not want to wait for it after you've read Phantom. Trust me.

You must read the last 3 books in order. They are meant as a trilogy and are written that way. You need the information from the previous ones and they have slight cliffhangers in between them.

Terry showed an amazing talent for tying up loose ends in the last two books. You are in for a treat.

Phantom was an amazing book and breaks the mold for the middle book of most trilogies.

So how is the flow between Book 9 and 10? Does it flow easily from moment to moment?

All three last books are very solid. They have their own subplots and advance one major plot.

I was hoping the Major plot would be the downfall of the Imperial Order! However with the Title I am asumming that Richard is still searching for Kahlan in Phantom!

I think you are getting ahead of yourself there and assuming too much. Once you have finished chainfire we can discuss the validity of what you are suggesting if you dont want to wait you can PM me an i can give you some non spoilage spoilers about overall plot.
