Negative Positive
Title: Worst of the lot so far
Review: I have a love hate relationship with Goodkind. On the one hand, he is incredibly imaginative and original. On the other hand, he can't write dialog to save his life, and often, he just repeat himself over and over and over and over and over again.I suspect if I deleted all the repetition, particularly about the stupid knife (Yes, we get it early on Terry) you could cut about two thirds of the book out and not change it at all.The previous book, Faith of the Fallen (book six), was very good. Another brilliant original twist placing the main character Richard deep in enemy territory, stripped of his magic and his sword, with only his mind to fight back. Excellent. So what happened Terry? How did you go from such brilliance to the pedantic, plodding, mind-numbing pap of book seven?I found myself skimming through this book. In truth, you can read the first few chapters and probably the last two and get the entirety of the book.
Is the review positive or negative?
