    Legend of the Seeker

    Legend of the Seeker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    So, the first book of the Terry Goodkind series, "Sword of Truth", Wizard's First Rule; is going to be made into a television series spanning 22 episodes and will premier on the 1st of November.

    Who else is excited to see this show? I can hardly wait to see it. I'm almost halfway through the book myself, and this just gives me more incentive to finish reading it before it premiers.

    I am quite excited, though i know it will be much different from the books. I started reading the books just about at Naked Empire was coming out, so i got to naked empire pretty quickly, then had to wait so long for Chainfire, Phantom, and Confessor. I finished reading Confessor about a year ago, and the series is AMAZING. No other word for it.

    PLEASE everyone. Watch it. If you want to know if/when it is playing in your area, just go to the following site and type in your zip code.

    I've read the series years ago but started them over again after I watched the second episode cause i found it by accident so far it's really good though.

    I found out that Goodkind had no input on what is going on with the show which is why it became so mutilated. Like: Kahlan not the mother confessor; there are other confessors; Richard does not remember the Book of Counted Shadows as a child; George Cypher is alive; Zed is not as close of a friend. I never watched the show, but I don't think I would want to anyway the reason being that I loved the books series, what happened in the books I liked, and when it is transferred to another medium it should be kept as it was for that is what made it popular/well-liked. I don't care about some person's fan-fiction on it. I've been dissapointed on how the show turned out, at first I was damn excited.

    Now I hope that they don't screw up the Wheel of Time movies.

    That's not the only discrepancy.

    SPOILER!!:
    Zed isn't his grandfather.
    The three of them went to the other side of the barrier as opposed to just Kahlan and Richard.
    The barrier got destroyed.
    They skipped a LOT of character development.
    Chase wasn't a bald guy, nor as big as Goldberg. >_>
    Richard was scrawny as opposed to a build akin to Kevin Nash or Dwayne Johnson.
    Kahlan told Richard she was a Confessor, as opposed to keeping the secret throughout 90% of the series. >_>
    George Cypher is his real father as opposed to Darken Rahl.
    Darken Rahl doesn't look like Lucius from Fire Emblem 7.
    Not to mention with the first episode 2 hour special, it went through HALF of the Wizard's First Rule.

    I've been watching this with my guy and I really like it! He's read the entire series of books, I haven't.

    So parts of it for him are frustrating as it is "loosely" based on the novels. I however love it!

    I enjoy this show, me and my girlfriend sits down and watches it all the time. She is addicted to it but me I could live without it. In my opinion the acting is kind of bad but it is a decent show...6/10

    Sitting here waiting for Rocky, and Che to notice me!!
