Decision to reread before continuing where I left off
blew through the first four books within a few weeks. That was a year and a half ago. Life happened and I am only recently picking them back up again.
I could have picked up where I left off but just couldn’t shake this feeling that I may have forgotten some significant detail. People who read the story as the books were being published were likely accustomed to long breaks between novels. Goodkind is careful to give context and drop refreshers where they may be needed. Is this standard with this type of book series? The only other high fantasy I’ve read are The Lord of the Rings and A Song of Ice and Fire. The latter being the first series I’ll be finishing as it’s published.
Rereading the first four books is a major commitment - especially wi…
Warheart
I cant wait for new SoT book by Goodkind, but I also dont want it to end. Warheart will be the last Kahlan and Richard book, so all good things must end. WHY?
The battle continous behind paper walls
When i follow my path to the search of love and help i must keep maintain my war against the blockers of life not knowing where they are from and why the keep up appear with such high lies and physical matters damiging me.
Ending of ''Svered Souls'' and ''Law of Nines''
I was thinking that Severed Souls ending and Law of Nines. When I read the Law of Nines I thought that Richard and Kahlan were together and happy till the end and they had children and that Richard and Kahlan died of old age? Was that only me or did you all had these same feelings?
Severed Souls ending
So, I was reading the end of the book like always when I start the new Sword of Truth book and I was like WHAT THE FUCK! If someone is read the book they would know what I'm talking about, but those who have not read the whole book SPOILERS!. So, Richard and Zedd dies in the end, Kahlan and Nicci survive. Kahlan is heartbroken, but Nicci has some hope that Richard is not fully dead. Book ends pretty much then when Kahlan asks some commander to retrieve the Sword from Richard. To me there is still hope. Severed Souls ends like there will be more... Am I wrong or am I right?
the Third Kingdom
So I have read 30 chapters of this awesome book and I thought put some my thoughts of it. Here's gonna be some spoilers so dont read if you havent read the book as much as I or all of it. This book is much more Richard based than others, but that wasnt such supprise for me. I wanted more Nicci, but I got more Richard. There's more Kahlan too than Nicci. Well, I dont want to go details and I wanted to know what are your thougts of the book this far. I myself love it.
Show Must Go On - Update
This is a follow up on Aetherium's blog post regarding the Save Our Seeker campaign and the deal with My Show Must Go On.
On the 21st of May, 2013 Aetherium asked us to vote on: http://www.smgo.tv/shows/legend-of-the-seeker/?funder_id_vote=7885#_=_ to show our support for the TV series.
15,000 votes was the vote count to reach in order to move the show to the crowdfunding phase, and as of today, we are over 500 votes past our goal! This is a huge step towards reviving the TV series and it was all because of the fans. This does not mean, however, that we as a fan community cannot stop voting for the show (as shown by the continuing ability to vote).
Keep up to date with the details of the campaign at the link above.

The third kingdom
So the new Sword of Truth book should be released today or days to come very soon. But I have to wait until autumn because in my country everything is late! Still I'm very excited to read more Richard and Kahlan stuff, but if they die in the ending I'm not gonna like it. Not one bit!
Berdine
In this blog, I will write about good for nothing (but important to me and maybe seeker fans, hopefully) stuff about Sword of Truth or Legend of the Seeker.
I like Legend of the Seeker. Well, nobody calls himself "Seeker fanatic" unless he is the one so I do not have to say that out loud. I also love Sword of Truth, the original books, and are "fanatically" reading them. Then I love Cara but at the same time there is one more person that I want to see on TV shows. That is Berdine. The harrowing ordeal she went through was beyond imagining but the scene when Richard helps her overcome it is one of my favorite scenes along with the scene when he killed and helped his royal male protectors by killing mriswiths.
Of course many of the mos…

the Law of Nines
So I've started reading the law of nines and it's been very good at this point. Jax reminds me of Nicci and it's good Alex in another hand reminds me of Richard so they mix together nicely.
Are the books better than the series?
I'm thinking about reading the books but I'm not sure I liked the show some what but I did have some problems with it like the creator being a woman(I felt the show was gender biased) not that I have a thing against women and female dieties but for some reason that felt like a face palm especially with the Keeper being in love with her it made no since to me that his driving motivation would be to reunite with her.
I mean that makes him sound more of a anti hero(granted he did a lot of terrible things) because nobody really emphasized with that and it was never discussed after the first mention. For all they could know he wanted to see her again so he could appologize. The Creator also kind of sounded even more evil than The Keeper in my op…
Omen Machine?
Currently I'm reading Omen Machine and I'm little puzzled the END word at the end of the book. Other books that word is no where to be seen? So, is this book the last one? Or is there gonna be new adventures of Richard and Kahlan? What is Terry's plan for these characters? I for one want some more adventures of Richard and Kahlan...
Dragon Age vs. Sword of Truth
I've played Dragon Age II with Richard (Rahl) Hawke and it worked really good. My Hawke was a warrior, but I wanted him to be Mage so I'm gonna play Origins with Mage/Arcane warrior so my Gray Warden Richard Rahl would be more Seeker like. Mage with the sword. That would be so awesome. Currently I'm playing Saints Row: the third with Nicci so thats guite hot and fun. Who else is putting their favorite characters from Sword of Truth to games they love? Tell me I want to know that I'm not the only one who knows how to have fun.
Legend of the Seeker/Sword of Truth
Who else is picturing books characters like they are in the TV series? I do, because it has great actors and they are just like in the books. Kahlan, Richard, Cara, Zedd, Jennsen and offcourse my favorite character Nicci are in the books just like they are in the TV series. Offcourse the TV series are not just like the books, but the characters are. To me they are and that is the important thing.
Extreme fansism
I've read all the books except Omen Machine and I LOVE them all. The TV series are good too, but it has it's flaws. Actors in the series are just like I pictured them in the books. Maybe because I watched the TV series first and then read the books, but it dosnt matter to me. My favorite character in the books is Nicci. I just dont like the treatment of her by Terry. Stop tortorying her. She's been through enough. That's all for now...
Bladder Control
I'm up to book 4 the temple of winds in the sword of truth series. I've listened to Debt of Bones and Law of Nines audio books. I've noticed in almost every book so far there is always a female character that pisses themself.
Rachel, wet herself when she meet the wolf in the first book. Scared kids wet themselves, I guess it happens. Then one of the sisters of the dark wet themselves when they meet Jangang in blood of the fold. Telling them what he could do was terrifying to them, but I just thought it was weird and out of place. I mean it was funny that the sisters were linked and they all felt it; but they have such great control of their han but not their badders it seems. Then another little girl wet herself in blood of the fold when Ze…

Ready for the new book.
Howdy yall. I just want to know what any of you think will happen in the new uppcoming book.
Terry Goodkind's website
"62-65-77-61-72-65-20-6f-66-20-74-68-65" This series of numbers is currently on Terry Goodkind's website under a status update. Anyone know if this number means something?
Lo9 and the House of Rahl
Just finished The Law of Nines. All I can say is...wow. What a way to conclude the Sword of Truth series. The book really answered a lot of questions left open at the end of Confessor. However, it also raised quite a few more. One in particular is: What happened to the House of Rahl? Jax made it quite clear that the Rahl line no longer existed in her world. She explains that, shortly after the war with the Imperial Order ended, history simply forgets the House of Rahl.
One interesting theory I've found is based on a portion from Stone of Tears. In SoT Richard is distraught over discovering that he is a Rahl. Kahlan suggests that, after they are married, he could take her family name (Amnell) as husbands of Confessors often do. Richard seem…
Why did it have to end... :(
I have just finished the entire series, including debt of bones. All of it was so good, I couldn't belive that it was over when I read the last line said by Richard... It all seemed to be waiting for Goodkind to write another. I really wish he would but I guess all things good in life hve to end sooner or later. I plan on writing another story to pass the time. I wanted to use goodkinds characters to keep their spirits alive. Thanks for creating this site so I could be more involved with this novel. I love it so much. The only thing I might have missed was what happened to the beast exactly? ;) ------- stphnkendall----
