atarbett 's review for:

Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind
2.0

I managed to finish it. But man, this is an infuriating book. I can live with it being kind of stereotypical fantasy. I was looking for mindless fluff anyway. But the number of times insurmountable problems were just solved because "Oh, didn't I tell you? That's just how things work."

The last chapter in particular (no spoilers) was just so over the top in trying to tie everything together with a big bow that I almost wanted to vomit. My eyes rolled right out of my head and bounced along the floor.

I had set myself the challenge to read the whole series. I maaaaaaay have promised more than I can deliver...
