Oracle

Posted on September 11, 2019 Written by Developer Leave a Comment

by Douglas E. Richards

This was a book with an interesting premise.
What if someone could sense the future, but be unaware of it.
Could they be helped to develop it?

Aliens visiting Earth seem to think so and they have searched for the right candidate for a long long time.

I won’t give away too much more of the plot, in case you might want to read it.

My recommendation is don’t.

Yes the girl learns to use her intuition, but is it really necessary to repeat it every other sentence? I can remember it.

This book is let down by being far too repetitive. Have a higher opinion of the reader. Trust that they don’t need to have the same facts drummed into their head multiple times per page.

This book also suffers from the Übermensch fallacy.

If you are really bored on a flight, you might pick this book up but if you are reading it for the enjoyment of reading find something much better.
