Terry Goodman - The Omen Machine, A New Sword of Truth Series Novel with Richard and Kahlan

Terry Goodman, a number one New York Times best-selling American author, has just published his fourteenth novel in the Sword of Truth fantasy series, The Omen Machine. It is a worthy successor of the previous instalment, Confessor.



The protagonists of The Omen Machine are already familiar to Goodman’s readers: Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell. New characters also appear, both good and bad ones (the latter include the Hedge Maid, with her unstoppable magic, and Hannis Arc). The novel’s atmosphere is dark and brooding, tension is high – just the way I like it. The story is fast-paced and intriguing. I would recommend this book even for ones who are not big fans of fantasy genre: The Omen Machine is an enjoyable, well-written read with great characterisation and quite a few shocking twists (which will surely surprise old readers).
