"Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become. " C.S. Lewis

Book Review: The Omen Machine
The Omen Machine by Terry Goodkind
It was nice to revisit the world of Richard, Kahlan, Zedd and all the other great characters in Goodkind's universe. It was good to get reacquainted with them, but the book itself leaves a little to be desired. It is not bad by any stretch of the imagination, and can whip the pants off of most fantasy novels. But compared to other books in the Sword of Truth series, this one was just okay - not terrible or phenomenal, but definitely a compelling read. It is the type of books that kept me up too late at night because I had to know what happened next. But that was probably due to the fact that I know and love these characters. Thanks Mr Goodkind for opening this world up to us again.
