Seeker Faithful To Goodkind

Sam Raimi, executive producer of the upcoming syndicated TV series The Legend of the Seeker, based on Terry Goodkind's books, told SCI FI Wire that the goal of the series is to remain true to the SF novelist's work.

Raimi, together with frequent collaborator Rob Tapert (Xena: Warrior Princess), will executive-produce 22 episodes of the one-hour drama.
