Goodkind must be one of the most controversial fantasy writers ever. For every person I've heard singing his praises, there are two who totally rip him apart. I suppose I'll have to read his books myself to make any judgment on them, of course. However, I don't like his attitude in the interviews with him I've read, like how he insists he's not writing fantasy but stories with "important human themes". Mr. Goodkind, did it ever occur to you that a fantasy story can have important human themes? And how silly your claim sounds when I can see a friggin' dragon on the book cover?
