The Robert Jordan Wheel of Time books. By book 7 I hated the main characters and really hated the writing style. The repetition. The repetition. The repetition…
The Sanderson books were ok, but they couldn’t rescue the series and I got no joy from finishing it. A lot of relief though to be done with it.
So far I’ve only read Way of Kings. I found it too slow paced for me, especially the 1st half of the book. But… I’m reading Lost Metal now and will probably read Tress… and then back at it for the next Stormlight Archive
Same man. I generally thought the first book was entertaining but it was not long into book two that I was permanently annoyed and just couldn’t get even a quarter into book 3.
I know a lot of people don’t like Sanderson’s writing. I like his books myself. I don’t think the Stormlight Archives series is the masterpiece that many seem to claim it to be, but they are good.
I’ve read all the Mistborn stuff and the first Stormlight Archive book. And I really did have a hard time getting through that one. First 1/2 is definitely boring and too long.
Mistborn is more my style.
Actually, Orson Scott Card is more my style. IMO, he has the right pacing (even though not all his books are stellar)
Agreed on the wheel of time. Every character has one and just one quirk and they repeat it in every occasion.
Also it’s quite troubling, once you start thinking on it, this fixation on men/women relationship.

Oh yes. I LOVE the Stormlight books.

I rage quit after book 3. I’m sorry you had to suffer so much longer.
Read Sanderson’s own books though. They’re pretty good, IMO

I think I made it to book 6 and just stopped. I was utterly bored by that point.
