While watching TV tonight I came across The Legend of the Seeker. Since I was half asleep I didn't quite catch all of it, but it seemed very similar to one of my favorite fantasy series, "The Sword of Truth" by Terry Goodkind. It's akin to "The Wheel of Time" in terms of scope and length and was wondering if any of you have read it. I need to spend more time looking through the TV show trailers, but I really hope it does the books justice. Normally these types of fantasy series are silly, but I felt the books were a little more adult oriented. I hope the show is the same.

I am excited and nervous about this project. It seems doomed to live up to the expectations built up by the books.
A couple posts above I made mention of a new television series based on another, similar, epic length series of books, "The Sword of Truth." Sadly, I only made it through the first fifteen minutes or so of the first episode before I turned it off. I wanted to like it, but ultimately couldn't stomach it. Chalk it up to bad timing, but I had just finished the last book of that particular series and was a bit disappointed in it as well. Bah humbug.

That's too bad about that series. I read Wizard's First Rule and liked it, but I never got around to reading any of the sequels.

Until the last couple of books, it was my favorite series. Still, you should give them a try.

Wow - I agree with St. Pat. Excited and nervous... I read the first 3-4 of those novels and really enjoyed them. It might be time to dust them off for a re-read.
Now if the author and producer can just avoid producing a dog of a movie like the Dungeons & Dragons movie(s) turned out to be...
