I haven't read much of Jordan, and haven't read Goodkind at all, so it wouldn't be possible for me to make a comparison. But if all the similarities listed above are accurate, it looks like Terry Goodkind, who acts like he has totally reinvented the Fantasy genre, may only have succeeded in reinventing Robert Jordan.
