> done by Kevin J Anderson, who is a complete hack
It's lowkey inspiring that Kevin J Anderson has had a writing career as long and as successful as he has when his best work is a few mediocre Star Wars novels in the 90's. If he can get published, you can too!

He's a nice guy. I've met him.
Is he a complete hack? No. That's not a nice thing to say considering writing novels and having them coherent and interesting enough to read through is pretty fucking difficult. How do I know? I'm still struggling on book #1.
Are his books just kinda OK? Yeah. But the man has written hundreds of novels. HUNDREDS. He's the guy when you want a novel tie-in to your TV/movie/game.
He can crank something out in a week or two. I'm not kidding. It just flies out of his fingers.
