That doesn't mean Sanderson's writing has anything wrong with it.

>> No.22657022

The only thing wrong with Sanderson is his writing is all plot and no meaning. Some people want that.

>>22657006
You're missing out. Specifically about LeGuin. She picked up where Arthur C Clarke left off.

He just says what happens with zero prose, it's like a chemistry textbook but for a made up world

The plots are super formulaic and predictable.

I don't agree with you. I'm a big fan of the stormlight archive and I read the novellas and holy shit am I glad he didn't put that shit in the main series. It let me know maybe I should just stick to the mainline books and skip everything else by him.

His prose are pretty try and his characters usually don't go beyond one or two quirky attributes. Also he has the most reddit sense of humor I have ever seen
