I think Terry Goodkind is one of the best writers to come out of Nebraska.
I did not know that.  He creates such vivid characters.
He really does. Nicci is a great character. I was surprised he was revealed to be a Sister of the Dark.
Yes, she was a very powerful character and the epitome of ruthless when she was a Sister of the Dark.
The Sisters of the Dark seem pretty ruthless. I know they have to do what Jagang says, but still..
The world Goodkind creates is so massive and full of variety in characters is the biggest reason I like the series.
They really are big. That he's written over 15 books, and is still able to capture that imagination is really remarkable.
That is a lot of books.  His characters also go through such struggles that it really draws you in.
I like that he is able to tie some of his suspense novels to his fantasy novels, like with The Law of Nines.
I prefer the true fantasy novels that follow the Richard storyline.
