Weeks is the biggest hack I've ever seen, how did he even get published?
>“Elene gasped and sat up. "Kylar Thaddeus Stern!"
>Kylar giggled. "Thaddeus? That's a good one. I knew a Thaddeus once."
>"So did I. He was a blind idiot."
>"Really?" Kylar said, his eyes dancing. "The one I knew was famous for his gigantic-"
>"Kylar!" Elene interrupted, motioning toward Uly.
>"His gigantic what?" Uly asked.
>"Now you did it." Elene said, "His gigantic what, Kylar?"
>"Feet. And you know what they say about big feet." He winked lasciviously at Elene.
>"What?" Uly asked.
>"Big Shoes," Kylar said.”

I don't like Brent Weeks.
I tried reading his edgy assassin books and they were cringe as fuck.
Are the rest of his series as bad?
