Sheer epicness If anyone has read and/or is a fan of Terry Goodkind (like myself) then you might like to know that The Sword of Truth is coming to TV screens. I'm worried, but given that he's meticulous (and that fact that Sam Raimi has come on board to direct it with Terry sitting alongside him) I think this could work hopefully. He was always approached by people to turn it into a movie, and turned them down understandably. I mean, how the hell do you fit 10 fat epic novels into a movie? It's rumored to start shooting within weeks now (mid May) and will be based on 1 hour long episodes. There will be 22 episodes shot in the first series by the looks (which seem to be based on the first novel 'Wizards First Rule'). One step at a time though. Personally, I'm fairly excited.
