i have read all the books, and it would be very hard to recreate the novels,but they are doing a great job.and i pray that the people in charge of keepig this stuff alive realize they have a jem.and not let let it fall on the cutting room floor,the characters are well thought out, and the plots congruannt......if they dont let the cookie cutter prodcucers get a hold of it we might ...for once have a fantasy series worth the time,it will never be as good as the books ,but forgods sake let them try........where sci fi fantasy is 97 percw=ent fluff and special effectcs......they have shot at pleasing the much over looked fan of good fantasy.....if they could only do tad williams and george rr martin........robert jordan that would be awesome.....i know true fantasy lovers are finally a litle exited.........dont let it fall on the floor like firefly,one of the only others i realy enjoyed...there is a market for intellectuall fantasy......,,,,,please no more stargates no more vampires.....this show is good fantasy....keep up the good work!!!!
also the scenery is very good.....i really hope they consult with terry goodkind as much as posssable....

I never read the book as other have , i am a Sci-Fi type/ Fantasy person and I found the whole Movie Series very entertaining.Leaving the gaps between some episodes makes your mind wonder
