It may be *quality* but there is a difference between a good read and something fantastic that really makes a name for itself, etc.
As a reader, well, I haven't read any of his books, but I highly doubt he is a writer on the level of Brandon Sanderson, Robert Jordan, Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, George R. R. Martin, Neil Gaiman, J. R. R. Tolkien, J. K. Rowling, etc.
And more importantly, he never can be.
True quality work will always take time. Regardless of how error-free your books are.

Most people want instant gratification, true enough, and
that is what he is targeting! But his books won't stick with people and remain cult classics. True book nerds will pass over his books.
Well, now that I have gone ahead and read so much into this, I kind of have to read at least one of his books, don't I, to see if I was right,...
