What principle has Donaldson violated that made you not read his books. I can understand not reading them because you find Donaldson an egocentric ass or that he writes with a thesaurus by his side. But Principle. Explain more, King.
As for Donaldson, I enjoy all his books. He had a second TC trilogy. He did a fine fantasy novel series called A man rides through. He did scifi in the Gap series. It was Donaldson's take on the Ring cycle. He even dabbled in noire PI stories under the pen name Reed Stevens.
All his characters are broken and looking for redemption. Some find redemption and don't realize it. You have to like the dark twisted aspect of it.
