You can get all you need to know about Goodkind from one hilarious Q and A he did. http://cgi1.usatoday.com/mchat/20030805003/tscript.htm Weymouth, MA: In your opinion who is the most must-read, cutting edge writer publishing today? Terry Goodkind: Ayn Rand.

I will never not believe his cause of death was COVID, probably after yelling in a Walgreens that he won't wear a mask as it is no man's responsibility to live his life for anyone else and anything else is Communism.

Goodkind hated a cover to one of his last books so much he held a contest on his Facebook that the 10 best burns of it or something would win a signed copy of his book. When the artist responded saying he did the art he was told to, Goodkind told him to stop stirring the pot. Also the cover was completely fine. https://i.imgur.com/LL97A18.jpg

HelloIAmYourHeart posted:Is there some kind of cutoff date for that? Like, authors prior to 2000 or whenever get some kind of a begrudging pass? This is Robert J Sawyer's Neanderthal Parallax trilogy and it's vaguely different from what I remember. An evil human capitalist business villian is the one who comes up with the virus to kill all the Neanderthals in order to take over the parallel Earth which hasn't been hosed over by climate change and overpopulation like ours. The human scientist he's got working on the virus is the one who changes it to target all human males instead of all Neanderthals. Which is kinda hosed up because human scientist is actually doing this because he feels guilty for raping multiple women at the start of the trilogy because he thinks he's being passed over for promotions because he's a white man. And it's only after being castrated by a Neanderthal that his anger towards woman goes away and he decides men are the real problem in society. I don't think the book painted him as a hero in any way!

Look, I didn't even get into the fact that all the Neanderthals are enlightened bisexual atheists and only meet up with their opposite gender partners once a month for sex romps, or that all the women have synchronizated menstrual cycles and men stay completely out of the cities during that time, or that they really, really love practicing eugenics.
