Well, yes.
The Sword of Truth series takes suffering far beyond natural human limits, however. At least the Stark's are human enough to pass away after a certain point.
Richard and Kahlan just keep on suffering, moaning and groaning, and saving that world, even though it is hardly worth it. Every other character is an evil leech sucking the good out of life.
