Romance novels keep the publishing industry afloat because they earn so much money.

Maas is a fantasy mega star right now because she's gotten into that dynamic like Gabaldon, like Auel etc.

That brings a lot of newer eyeballs to the genre, yet there are certain "I'm new here and don't fully know the landscape" critiques that are going to dominate reviews.

I survived the Permian and all I got was this t-shirt.

These books are not great. Since I was lured in by the idea of a strong female assassin and the main character is not actually that, I think I will switch over to reading Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel books. I've heard great things about those over the years.
