>Patrick rothfuss before lord of the rings This has to be bait

• razemio 5y ago
  Patrick Rothfuss ruined other fantasy novels for me. Seriously, I usually now stop after 2-3 hours in because it is just bad in comparison. I know that there are some that do not like his books. For me those are the best fantasy books I have ever read. It is not even close. Like he is so much better that I can not even compare it to anything else.

    For me it was the other way around. The first book was so bad that I stopped reading fiction all together because I realized there are more important things I can do with my limited time.

      Why was it bad in your opinion? Always interested how you can argue against this masterpiece.

        Unlikable mary sue character who constantly toots his own horn and boasts about how smart he is, boring cookie cutter world building straight from a how to book. This made the protagonist extremely annoying like a teenager who thinks he’s smart and talented because of good grades and then ends up working as a web dev later in life.

          Did we read the same books? Everything that you mentioned is actually a plus for me. Alright, different tastes I guess.
