I stopped reading at book 7. I refuse to pick them up again. I don't want to give money or energy to an author who can't finish. I refuse to start GoT for a similar reason.
I said to a friend when I stopped that he would die before he finished the series. I didn't think it would be as soon as it was but I happened to be right anyway.
Picking Sanderson to finish it was smart. He knows how be ruthless with a subplot
- newen 9y agoDidn't he die while writing the final volume...
- saalweachter 9y agoThe final trilogy :-P
- zaphar 9y agoI can't say. I have a lack of confidence that he could have kept it down to a final volume. It is of course impossible to say now. But his track record indicated that he was reluctant/incapable of finishing a subplot. Did he intend to finish? Probably. Was he capable of finishing? Previous work suggests not.
