Negative Positive
Title: I really, really tried... ** SPOILERS**
Review: I understand what Goodkind was going for here. I agree with the Pugh review that he was attempting to challenge his fans (of which I am one and still remain...) to see Richard from a unique perspective. But I just couldn't get into it. I think the book would have worked better if Goodkind focused more on Jennsen and never bothered us with Oba. He spent way too much time on Oba who's actions could have been served by anyone from, say, the Sisters of the Dark or even Sebastian. Plus, it was kind of confusing when we're one minute with Richard in the forest, and then - BAM! - we're at the Pillars and the story suddenly comes to and end with no set up.I was disappointed in this portion of what is otherwise a brilliant series. I hope the next book is better.
