So that is why I say he's not print worthy or any format worthy. The thing is, with a first book so bad, I am very much surprised he was allowed to publish any more or even the first one.

I suggest Peter F. Hamilton , Alastair Reynolds, and Karl Schroeder to anyone looking to read some good sci-if.
I agree with this shortlist. Good authors with long books that read well.
