The stress of success, many eyes watching, and not publishing is less crushing than publishing a shit ending that ruins the trilogy and wipes out all interest in the first two books.
It’s a shame I don’t find Sanderson books all that interesting because that guy puts out books like a Gatling gun.
I’ve literally tied myself over with several series of Sanderson’s while waiting for the final book in the Kingkiller Chronicle series.
I guess there’s always the reassurance that Sanderson will probably pick up any major series that needs finishing haha.
Way of Kings did nothing for you? :o
Nah not really. It’s well thought out and all that but it just seems kind of “clinical” to me. I like a lot of grit (cormac McCarthy is my favorite author), so I lean more towards Abercrombie or mark lawrence.
Steven Erikson is another I wish I could get into but I find myself rereading the same stuff over and over until ultimately giving up.
