Title: Entirely awful.
Product review: I bought this set on the piles of praise and good reviews, only to be sorely disappointed and unable to get through half of the first book.Goodkind writes like a bad teenage poet, and in such ridiculous absolutes which betray a very limited perspective of people and life in general. The dialogue is drivel. None of the characters are remotely original or even slightly interesting. The plot is meaningless and arbitrary. The characters do things which constantly force one to ask "why?", and leave him with no good answer.If you're looking for a great read, steer clear of Goodkind and look rather to George R. R. Martin, Gene Wolfe, and Robin Hobb.
