the older I get the more I think Goodkind was just a more self-aware version of Jordan lol

Sword of Truth is like the one schlocky fantasy series that I managed not to get into, so I can't compare, but it does not seem like self-awareness ever ended up in Robert Jordan's toolkit.

it's a good hate-read. imagine wandering through the psycho-sexual power fantasy of a dyed-in-the-wool randian

but wizard bdsm pet play is a central part of the storyline of the first book (and some/most of the ones after that) which your comment got me thinking about.
