And well you should! Many fantasy novels have very little point to them, and a lot of the authors mentioned are really trying to milk those cash cows past the point where they ought to. IMO.

Mind you, I say that as someone who has read most of the series listed thus far.

Oh! Also, you should check out the Shannara books and the Magic Kingdom For Sale books, both series by Terry Brooks. There's some fail there, especially, IIRC, with Wishsong of Shannara. Probably past that, but, after a while I just gave the hell up on that world.

And if you want some supreme amounts of several different kinds of fail along with the rest of the annoyance, you should check out everything Orson Scott Card has ever written.
