Some fans have revisited the books and said that they seem to support child abuse (at least verbal child abuse). Can any fans verify whether that is true?
Or are people seeing the books in a new light because they have since learned that David and Leigh Eddings served time for abusing their foster children?
(The news was discussed in
several blogs, but there are newspaper clippings.)
On the other hand, the Eddings died several years ago, so if you buy their books, they don't get the money.
