I've always wondered about collaboration. It has to be painful. I much better understood shared worlds, like the Thieves World books. Those are all about not having to reinvent the wheel with regards to world building.
Door stoppers? They are not inviting to me so I have to have a good reason to pick up a series of books that are that size. My experience is mixed. Some authors use that length to great advantage (+1 for Stephenson) and others bore or disappoint me with how they fill out that length.
