<h3>Review:</h3>
<p>This trilogy is a tricky read. Most characters just suffer through horrible things.<br /><br />Also, the way the oracle's power works is fairly obvious, and there are (again) obvious countermeasures that could have been taken by the other parties in order to render her<br />power useless (example: killing her).<br /><br />On the other hand, it describes a world that feels as if it exists or existed, which is something I really like in science fiction.</p>
