Joe Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Has anyone read his books? I'm right in the middle of reading Wizard's First Rule, after my mum stopped me from watching the TV series 'Legend of the Seeker', because she said it was 'too dark' :lol: I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreams Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Excellent series, I highly recommend it! The books are much darker I think and are much more detailed compared to the tv series, like any other books made into TV shows I got so attached to the series, I read one of the books in 1 day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 So Legend of the Seeker is based on the Terry Goodkind books? I have not watched Seeker on TV (my dad loves it) nor read any of his books. Perhaps I will try one myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted February 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 You have to watch it or read the books Caryl... It's SO GOOD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 I got bored with the TV series but will try the books. My preferred media anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos & Siran Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 I did try wizards first rule a long time ago but it didn't grab me, but I'm notoriously picky when it comes to fantasy novels. My Favorite is Katherine Kerr's Devery series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 My Favorite is Katherine Kerr's Devery series. Hehe, I never would have guessed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 It's been years since I read that. I think I still have the books here though. My first of the fantasy genre were the David Eddings Belgariad and Malloreon series. Terry Goodkind is now on my list next time I go to the library. Perhaps he will add to my favourite Terrys - Brooks and Pratchett :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he's predictable and there's plot holes the size of Africa, he rehashes the same plot over and over but I like it dammit, Silk is still my all time favorite character, he's one devious little man.

seahorsecrazy Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Absolutely love Terry Goodkind. I have every one of the books and from the Sword of Truth Series, and acouple of others that have branched off as well. Highly recommended. The TV series is really a waste of time, no way it could get you as engrossed as the books. I too have read these 500 odd page books in just 1 day. They are that good.
