I like him, but for me, it’s Stephen King, a lot of his stories he goes off on a twenty page non-relevant rant.
Though, the ones where he keeps that to a minimum, are great.
Then there’s Mr. Marketer James Patterson who markets out his name to other authors making it look like he wrote the book when it was obviously someone else.
Patterson was my first thought. He wasn’t a good writer back when he was actually writing. Now as the head of a writing empire that is made in his image, they churn out crappy books at a ferocious rate.
Couldn’t agree more
