You should just summarize the last couple of books in a few sentences so the rest of us that are never going to read it can keep up. I stopped a couple books ago, but from the sounds of it I'd almost believe that he's trolling his readers now and making shit as boring and dry and repetitive as possible. But unless he got an AI to write it for him, that's a lot of work for trolling. I'll never read anything else he writes, because even if it starts strong he'll eventually fall into this same bullshit I assume, so I'm done. But I'd like to know when, 38 books from now, something cool finally happens.Halfway through Defiance of the Fall 15. It's still my favorite series right now. There's something about a book that makes you really work to earn understanding it. The way it bounces from actual scenes that move the story forward to epiphany stories that you don't know aren't happening to the MC until halfway through the third chapter of the epiphany. How it makes references to throwaway characters from 5 books ago that are required to remember before understanding core sections of the plot. The way it painstakingly progresses through each of the 37 tenets of the lung empowerment rituals.
