Boy, do I agree with that. Nothing worse than investing yourself in a series only to find that the 3rd or 4th has a knocked-off quality to it, or worse, that the author has lost interest and just wants to finish the sucker so he can move on to something else.I dont remember the time frame it took him to write the first two chronicles, but I Very VERY much hope that SRD does not let other books or the GI infect his thought process and makes these last chronicles as good as the first,
There are elements of each book that are quite interesting however there are other elements that seem to imply an intent that I would expect from a far less talented and commited author than SRD. I'm a bit confused by the direction of the books (as Cail seems to be) but I guess I'm still on board until we find out just where all of this is going.
