I lump Grr and Patrick Rothfuss together under the 'rich, lazy fucks' category.

Apparently, Rothfuss mentioned at a con a few years back that the current trilogy was supposed to be a prequel to the true story. He realized he would never write those other books, so he's been trying to cram the gist of that story into the last book.

I don't understand why these guys aren't under contract to shit something out every five years or so. It's pathetic.

I sometimes wonder if lefty creatives have undergone vaxx-induced brain damage. They seem incapable of producing content on the level of just five years ago. Permanent brain fog is a real possibility. You know these people were vaxx maxing.

Even if true, he's got a 13 year gap to explain.

The ghost writers quit and got their own contracts.

If the third book doesn't have him kill that smary twat from the university that kept trying to sabotage him then I have no idea why it's called "The Kingkiller Chronicles", because IIRC that twat was royalty and there's no other buildup that makes sense in the first two books. And calling them two books is generous since the second more or less just tells the same story of "MC fucks around and learns to use wind magic at the end".

Don't forget that he out-sexed the magical sex fairies and then out-sexed the all girl sex ninjas. He was the best at sex, better than anyone.

Well the whole setup seems prequel like from the beginning but he can't even manage to finish those

I don't understand why these guys aren't under contract to shit something out every five years or so.

Because they’re sell outs. They’re not creators at this point, just the partial owners of a brand/IP. We won’t get winds of winter until selling copies of a book has a higher ROI than hbo schlock, and we won’t get anything else out of Rothfuss until that Lin Manuel Miranda deal fall s apart
