I'm getting very sick of every Fantasy and Sci-Fi author thinking they have to be George R.R. Martin and making their novels into huge series. Not everything has to be a series.

@thelinuxcast (ice cold take) George R.R. Martin is one of the worst authors I've read.

@thelinuxcast it's stopped me from reading a lot of fantasy is nobody writes standalone novels now

@thelinuxcast I agree

connetheus,

@thelinuxcast I agree with your opinion. It takes creativity away if you force yourself to make a huge series out of everything.

@thelinuxcast sadly I think you are right. His stand alone have been good but man…

My favorite series is by but it can get a little dark.

@jppelt I'm reading The City of Brass right now. Having a hard time getting into it, and made the mistake of reading the summaries (just the outside covers) of the other two books. Major effin' spoilers there, which should be illegal.
