I was gonna say Patrick Rothfuss’ King Killer Chronicles series. We’re never getting Doors of Stone. I loved his writing, but dammit, I’ve just given up on it at this point.
Oh wow I forgot about that series. It’s been like a decade lol. I didn’t even realize the third never released. What’s with these good writers not finishing their projects
The stress of success, many eyes watching, and not publishing is less crushing than publishing a shit ending that ruins the trilogy and wipes out all interest in the first two books.
It’s a shame I don’t find Sanderson books all that interesting because that guy puts out books like a Gatling gun.
I’ve literally tied myself over with several series of Sanderson’s while waiting for the final book in the Kingkiller Chronicle series.
I guess there’s always the reassurance that Sanderson will probably pick up any major series that needs finishing haha.
Way of Kings did nothing for you? :o
Nah not really. It’s well thought out and all that but it just seems kind of “clinical” to me. I like a lot of grit (cormac McCarthy is my favorite author), so I lean more towards Abercrombie or mark lawrence.
Steven Erikson is another I wish I could get into but I find myself rereading the same stuff over and over until ultimately giving up.
I think he painted himself into a corner with just how much he needs to resolve in the last book. Hell, we don’t even know what king is killed.
I think he could do quite a few things to make it more than just a third book. He could hand wave away some parts as “well that’s already well known, go talk to X for that story.” And then put that as a separate book.
Or just say to properly tell the story he needs more time than expected and give himself more than 3 of the in story days.
Gonna have to start fantasy book series just like Netflix these days. Not gonna start until the book/series has an ending!
