Terry Goodkind is my favorite author hands down. I started reading these books when I was fourteen. Looking back, I admit that I was young for these books, but the great thing about Terry Goodkind is that he will draw you in to the story. Many complain that he includes torture and rape, and other taboo topics in his stories. Two things: Not to sound boorish, but Mr. Goodkind is simply writing about a realistic fantasy setting: these things happen in our world too. In a way, the torture etc makes the story more memorable, and richer.
Some may say how could rape make something more memorable. It does this because Goodkind makes us love his characters. When they have to endure such hardship such as rape or torture, the focus is not on the torture, but rather on the character. Goodkinds characters are the richest i have found thus far in my 18 years, and audiences cheer them on as they go.
An unforgettable read.
