Terry Goodkind (1948-2020) was a #1 New York Times bestselling author. His books include the multi-volume epic fantasy Sword of Truth series--beginning with Wizard's First Rule--and related series Richard and Kahlan and The Nicci Chronicles.
Goodkind was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, where he also attended art school. Alongside a career in wildlife art, he was also a cabinetmaker and a violin maker, and did restoration work on rare and exotic artifacts from around the world. In the 1990s he relocated to Nevada, where, when not writing novels, he was a racing-car enthusiast.
"Wonderfully creative, seamless, and stirring." --Kirkus Reviews on Wizard's First Rule "Wonderful." --Kliatt on Stone of Tears "Each volume of the Sword of Truth... proves more difficult to review than the last. There are only so many ways of heaping praise on a series that gets better and better." --SFX on Blood of the Fold "...outstanding work...adrenaline and characters who actually behave like adults. Highly recommended." --San Diego Union Tribune on Temple of the Winds "...thoroughly enjoyable." --VOYA on Soul of the Fire "Mr. Goodkind's compelling prose weaves a magic spell over readers." --Romantic Times Bookclub on Faith of the Fallen "Near-perfect pacing, well-realized settings, and superior descriptive narrative." --VOYA on The Pillars of Creation
