By the sounds of it, im pretty certain most of the stuff he writes is probably junk that people mistake for being good/epic just because its long.

Just like how most fantasy/scifi fans tend to be No, it's actually pretty good. Most of his books are a slow burn with a great payoff and are genuinely fun to read. --- "I'm an atheist too but still believe in hell.

Just like how most fantasy/scifi fans tend to be No, it's actually pretty good. Most of his books are a slow burn with a great payoff and are genuinely fun to read. Except for the endings which tend to feel underwhelming. Also no sex scenes since he's Mormon. But the guy is a world builder machine. Also his theory of hard magic should be used by every other fantasy author. Definitelt my favourite author at the moment. --- Vocaloid topic: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/2000121-/76430759 <cite>ArchangelBaruch posted [p:914763076] in Good god s...

I never thought: "hey, you know what LOTR really needs... A full scene detailing Sam gobling on Frodos 'throbbing member' I'm not talking about gratuitous sex (like GRRM does) . I'm talking about using it where it's relevant. In LotR it makes little sense because Tolkien characters are highly idealized, with only a few flaws. In Sanderson books, they tend to be more human and tridimensional. In Way of the Kings for example, there is a conversation about what theu do if they want to go to the toilet while in Plate Armor. You wouldn't find such a conversation in Tolkien. --- Vocaloid topic: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/2000121-/76430759 <cite>ArchangelBaruch posted [p:914764826] in Good god s...
