The Pillars of Creation - Terry Goodkind - Sword of Truth
Book 7 of the series was finished today. This was the last book that I read the first time through the series, so after this, it’s all new. This book is very different from everything up to this point as we see the story from the point of view of a brand new character. We don’t see the characters we’ve grown to know throughout the series until very late in the book and really only as a segue into book 8. This was an interesting novel in it’s own right and if this was a stand alone book, it wouldn’t be all that bad….but there is just something about it that I had trouble getting through it. Not sure if it was the book itself or just fatigue of the series as a whole. Perhaps it’s time to take a short break and pick something else up in a different genre to keep this series from getting stale. Not a bad book, just not one of the best. 6++/10
