2010 Favorite Character

3,532 Comments

“We present Lord Rahl, the Seeker of Truth and wielder of the Sword of Truth, the bringer of death, the Master of D’Hara, the ruler of the Midlands, the commander of the gar nation, the champion of free people and bane of the wicked, and the betrothed of the Mother Confessor.”

Would Richard Rahl be my favorite character had I not read the entire Sword of Truth series twice this year? Maybe so. Is there any doubt that Richard Rahl is my favorite character since I have read the entire Sword of Truth series twice this year? Definitely not.

“Boy fulfills destiny” is a brilliant concept, and one that I have enjoyed many times (Luke, Harry, Frodo, Eragon, Percy, et al.). Richard’s fate is far more complex than the others, and that’s what makes him my favorite character. Is he perfect? Nearly, but he can be rather singleminded (a trait which often serves him well, but when it doesn’t….oh, boy.) I think the things I love most about him are the little things; the way he “calls the target” to himself, the way he dances with death, the way he subjugates himself to make others better themselves, the value he places on those around him, and I could go on and on at this point….

Craig Horner, as TV!Richard gives us a good “face to go with a name” and I wish the television series could have gone on longer if for no other reason, to touch on the EPICNESS of the novels. Terry Goodkind, who gives us Book!Richard is the true hero, however, and I can’t wait for The Omen Machine to be released so I can get even more of my favorite character.

  1. Hey! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest writing a blog post or vice-versa? My site addresses a lot of the same topics as yours and I think we could greatly benefit from each other. If you are interested feel free to shoot me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Excellent blog by the way!

  9. I think what you posted made a lot of sense. However, what about this? suppose you were to create a killer post title? I am not suggesting your content isn’t solid, but suppose you added something that makes people desire more? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little boring. You could glance at Yahoo’s home page and note how they create post headlines to grab people interested. You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to grab people interested about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it might make your blog a little bit more interesting.

  11. I think everything published was actually very logical. But, consider this, what if you added a little information? I ain’t suggesting your content isn’t good, but suppose you added a headline that makes people desire more? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You might look at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create post headlines to grab viewers interested. You might try adding a video or a related pic or two to grab readers interested about what you’ve written. In my opinion, it could bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
