Born in 1948, Goodkind first established a career as a woodworker and artist, before eventually writing his first novel, "Wizard’s First Rule", in 1994.

God I need to finish the series off,  Don't know if I'll jump into the "sequels" or just stick to the main saga which ends with Confessor, iirc.   I finished book 6 around 2 years ago, Faith of the Fallen,  and for some reason put off starting book 7.  

 

RIP,  I don't know if he was still working on more stuff but at least his SoT saga is done, as far as I can tell.
