Query: Imaginative but Repetitive

Goodkinds stories have great plot lines and characters, but his writing style leaves much to be desired. The books look hefty when you first see them, but if you cut out the rehashing and catching up, you're left with only a few interesting events. Goodkind's need to "remind" you of things that happened only a few chapters ago tend to drive returning readers crazy. If he shortened his books by a few chapters and cut to the chase he would probably be twice as good.
