Richard quits to go be a hobbit, but a weird Sister of the Dark kidnaps him with a MacGuffin spell and forces him into Atlas Shrugged. No, seriously. Goodkind isn’t even fucking trying to be subtle. I’m surprised someone wasn’t trying to build a goddamn train from Altur’Rang to Aydindril.
CBR #30 – Vacation, All I Ever Wanted, Vacation, Time To Get Away
I read this book in high school and totally missed out on the “Atlas Shrugged” analogy, but now that you’ve brought it up I can’t help laughing at my sixteen-year-old self for thinking this book was so deep.
I don’t think I got passed this book to finish the rest of the series; I highly anticipate your next wonderful review of this series!
