Reflection upon upon reflection upon reflection instead of just getting on with the story.Yes there was an underlying philosophy that the Goodkind obviously wanted to express thats great but the obsessive reflection on the relationship between Richard and Kahlan got unbareable. Unfortunately i never stop reading a serious half way through. I was relieved to have finished it. I was very disappointed as I was blown away by the characters and story line up untill book 5. Feist remains number one Hi,
