Knowing how fast Sanderon's "re-read" was, it's no surprise Marshall Send a noteboard - 27/03/2013 05:03:37 PM

Honestly, part of the reason my expectation for Sanderson's attention to detail was so low was due to how quickly he re-read the entire series. Remember when he used to give us percentage updates concerning his re-read?

I don't doubt he's a fast reader, but NOBODY can read at that speed AND pay attention to close details. It just doesn't happen. He zipped through the series in a week or two if I recall, and I remember thinking to myself, "How can this guy be digging deep enough into the novels after such a superficial read?"

Not perfect, but I did expect them to be good. And they weren't good. They were very bad. Awful. *NM* Marshall - 23/03/2013 08:30:23 PM 435 Views
