I started off reading this series because I fell in love with the show based on the books (Legend of the Seeker) I had heard from other fans who had read the books that they were graphic, and that deterred me from reading them for a while I will admit. I ended up buying them because I found them for super cheap and I so missed the beloved characters of the show. As some of the other reviews said, parts of it ARE graphic, but I feel they are justified. Evil doesn't come in a nice neat box. The story is great, and you really come to love the characters, especially if you have already watched the show and wondered about the other adventures of Kahlan and Richard. The world he creates is detailed and rich, and also varied. I love this series so far, it's not for everyone (all books fall under that heading haha) but it is a rewarding read.
