Those first 11 books comprised       over 6900 pages. My local Library was pretty good about getting his books in       as soon as they were available but he took about a year to finish each book so       it was still a long wait for the next one if you were caught up to his latest       book and awaiting the release of the next one.              JD>BTW, welcome to LitRPG Rob. Good to have you here              Thankyou.. I think I may have commented on the odd thing in the past and I       have been following the discussions here for a long time. I probably was less       active since I hadn't gotten into many of the type of books this conference is       supposed to be about, but you do get into other books at times so I figured       I'd mention my surprise to learn about Terry Goodkind, and sort of thought       people into RPG stuff might like his books.              I read lots of types of books and my Library thinks of me as family. I stopped       counting how many books I'd read when it got up over 3500, and now I sort of       wish I'd kept closer records as I get up to an estimated 7000 books..       I generally have over 10 books out of the Library at any given time and own       something up around 600 paper books cluttering up a very small house..
