people can prove themselves to him, exactly as Galt went on strike. Kahlan (Dagny) is in love with
Richard, but she doesn't agree with his strike. So she goes back to fight against all odds, until she ultimately realizes that Richard was right all along. Also, I think Richard's character identifies more with Galt then Rourke. After all, Richard made it very clear that he would never do to anyone what Howard did to Dominique, and though it wasn't in FotF, Richard's speech in confessor after unleashing orden was almost exactly like Galt's radio talk.

Goodkind and like it. SO they go ten miles in demeaning the guy. Fact is 9 out of 10 people cite FOTF as the #1 book of the series. The spiritual and psychological aspects of that book have

Hi. I was wondering if there shouldn't be some mention of Atlas
Shrugged here also. I feel like that Atlas deserves a mention in this article every bit as much as the fountainhead. Richard would be John Galt, obviously. He sees that there isn't a place for him, and so chooses to leave until the

So WLU you have a problem with someone anyone liking the book or the series and you are all about doing what ever it takes to slander the book and series. As we have seen in your posts to date. Well the thing I think we all can get a clear picture here is that no matter what WLU has no knowledge of

I'm expecting people to cite gushing reviews of the book and its themes, and as much as a completely negative article is unbalanced, so is a completely positive one. The review does acknowledge TG's merits as a writer, it is not completely negative and derogatory. It also addresses in an official

So I noticed that some of the information in the themes section had been deleted, so I replaced it because it seemed fairly worthwhile. However, even though I think a themes section is a great addition to this novel, I'm not entirely sure we should keep it. Despite however obvious (or subtle) any

Come on now, that's not nice. Posting that link is going to rub Mystar the wrong way and you know it. Kinda innappropriate as it looks like you're purposely trying to egg him on. I took a look at the article, and it has no place here. I have no problem seeing positive and negative reviews, as

venue some of the complaints that TG's readers have about his books - overly political, excessive sexual violence, awkward wording. Note I didn't put it in the article, I put it in the talk page as an option for inclusion. Whether it is used or not is up to the regular contributors.

Here's a review that could be potentially mined for themes, or at least ideas regarding the book. Admittedly it is pretty negative, but it's still a resource. 'Taint got a lot in it, but it does justify the mirroring of "The
Fountainhead".

So basically, unless we can find some references for the section, even though some of the themes of the novel may be obvious, I think we might have to temporarily delete the section. What does everyone else think? -

Unless someone has recommendations, im removing the plot tag. This has pretty much been trimmed to the bone, and despite its length, it is all critical plot, and glosses over significant portions of the
