You should be warned away from those two anyway, at least the Goodkind. I find GRRM boring, and haven't read much of his work.Really? I guess I've lived in ignorance, I didn't think there was sex in High Fantasy either.
And thanks, Idiots, for warning me away from those two.
As for sex in general, I write fantasy without sex, mainly because I don't see that sex adds anything to a story. It has no dialog, if done right, and precious little thinking, so I don't see how it moves a story along. I don't like violence much either, although there's more scope there for useful material. I had a duel at one point, which served a purpose, among others showing my character holding a burning log without injury. Had it just been mayhem I wouldn't have bothered.
