    Hahahahahaha! So you would think but you don't know Terry Goodkind, When I first read Wizard's First Rule nearly a decade or so ago I thought it was an ok book and the series had some promise but I could not have been more wrong. The series has over a dozen books and the author takes himself completely seriously both in his books and in real life. In interviews he has claimed to be Ayn Rand's successor and when asked why he decided to write fantasy novels he has claimed that his books aren't fantasy they transcend genre. He has said that the characters of his books are real and speak to him and has even thanked them for choosing him to tell their story. It is just laughable, the very reason it is so funny is because the guy is completely serious.

    I haven't read anything by TG, but Laurell K. Hamilton has said much of the same about her novels. She said it's sad that she can't actually talk to her characters, and sometimes she'll see something in the window of a mall and wish she could buy it for a character.

    That's a horrible kind of attachment! lol. How is it possibly to kill people off when u love them that much.
