Stormlight specifically suffers from massive bloating. I've been curious if it's a condition of his success - he's not editing / being edited as stringently because he knows his books will sell? Or maybe worse, the books are bloated to fit the "mega fantasy" niche. I've tried to like the books and they have some neat ideas in them, but the reading feels too abusive.
