Questa mattina, giovedì 17 settembre, abbiamo perso Terry Goodkind. È una grande perdita. Una perdita inimmaginabile. È impossibile esprimere in poche parole quanto fosse straordinario Terry Goodkind come uomo, marito, scrittore, amico e umano. È già disperatamente mancato. Siamo per sempre grati per aver condiviso il lavoro della sua vita con tutti noi, poiché è stato sempre grato di essere tenuto nei nostri cuori.
​
“Esistere in questo vasto universo per un granello di tempo è il grande dono della vita. È la nostra unica vita. L'universo andrà avanti, indifferente alla nostra breve esistenza, ma mentre siamo qui, tocchiamo non solo una parte di quella vastità , ma anche le vite intorno a noi. La vita è il dono che ognuno di noi ha ricevuto. Ogni vita è nostra e di nessun altro. È prezioso oltre ogni limite. È il valore più grande che possiamo avere. Amalo per quello che è veramente. . . La tua vita è solo tua. Alzati e vivilo. "

ABOUT

‘The Sword of Truth’ is a revered literary tour de force, comprised of 17 volumes, borne from over 25 years of dedicated writing. Terry Goodkind's brilliant books are character-driven stories, with a focus on the complexity of the human psyche. Goodkind has an uncanny grasp for crafting compelling stories about people like you and me, trapped in terrifying situations. With masterful storytelling, Goodkind brings us into the lives of his characters; characters that must rise to face not only challenges, but their deepest fears. For that reason, Goodkind’s characters speak to the best and worst in all of us.
While ‘The Sword of Truth’ series is confirmation enough of Goodkind’s incredible storytelling abilities, his broad talents are also clearly evident in his contemporary novels, set within our own world. His post-‘Sword of Truth’ books are a thrilling, dizzying, mix of modern narrative, with every bit of Goodkind’s masterful voice intact. The bond built between the reader and one of the world’s great authors, rises above worlds and settings, mere backdrops for Goodkind’s uniquely intricate stories of life, love, challenge, and triumph.
