Jaxom 1974 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 You merely need to reject all that is good in the world and hate life because it exists. Death-choosing is its own reward!Man, we really need a better initiation ceremony round here. Something with chanting and pewter wizard statues and a namble or two.Isn't having to read WFR hazing enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterOJ Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Isn't having to read WFR hazing enough? No, it's not. Because the latter books are so much worse. Reading one of them would be proper hazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emo Jon Snow Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 You have to at least make it to the evil chicken, but if you get to the land of pacifists in the woods you've really inducted yourself into the club. If you've seen more than 5 magical barriers broken down and yet a new undiscovered land where magic once again doesn't work in a land of magic you've probably read too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myshkin Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 Take a right after the evil chicken, continue past the noble goat, the communism destroying statue will be on the left. If you see the evil pacifists you've gone too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emo Jon Snow Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Can I ask who might have carved this statue? Or would it be more proper to say that it was erected? the person who carved it is not as important as the fact that once gazing upon it, you will be overcome with emotion and brought down to tears, your whole way of thinking will come crashing down and your entire life will change, even if you've been alive for 500 years, this one statue will have the power to completely change you.

EruditeFool Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Thought I'd leave this here... http://www.stuff.co.nz/nelson-mail/our-people/63121071/Dux-aims-sky-high-for-future "She's also an avid reader, with her favourite books the epic fantasy series The Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind." I wonder if she appreciates them for the comedy brilliance they are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowjack Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I only have recently started reading vociferously after a multi-year hiatus. Does anybody want to tackle a short, actual critique of why Terry Goodkind is so widely reviled by so many here? I am really interested in the opinion of the intelligentsia here.

EruditeFool Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 once again, thanks EF Looks like I avoided a bullet by choosing ASOIAF over the SoT. Actually, if you're in the right frame of mind, SoT is great comedy. I mean, the fact that THIS got published inspired me to keep writing (in a "I might not be great, but I know I'm not THAT bad" sort of way): Kahlan frantically tried to think as the chicken bawk-bawk-bawked.

Larry. Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Well, it's about time for another thread, it seems. So may I suggest, as per the ancient traditions of these threads, a new title, based on the latest book? Goodkind LIV: The Cerulean Scrolls of Lemminghood, or How to Revive a Dead Dick.
