The past few weeks I’ve been reading Terry Goodkind’s epic Sword of Truth series. It’s good stuff, surprisingly rich in philosophy and allegory, and I recommend it for any adult (i.e., not friendly for little ones) looking to do some leisure reading. And in case you don’t read many books of the thousand-page-persuasion other than Harry Potter, here’s a trailer for the upcoming ABC TV series based on the books.
The trailer actually doesn’t inspire much confidence in the quality of the translation to TV, although if you liked Hercules and Xena you may be pleased to learn that “Legend of the Seeker” is being made by the same folks who brought you those, um, interesting shows. Sigh. Another reason why reading is generally better than TV.
