  I absolutely love Brandon Sanderson. He’s my favorite author. So keep that in mind when I say this:

  I don’t think Brandon Sanderson is up to the task of mimicking Rothfuss’s prose.

    He definitely can’t mimic the style. Just as he couldn’t mimic Robert Jordan.

    But he could write the last 3 books of the Wheel of Time in his own style.

      Which was wonderful, and a breath of fresh air. But Rothfuss’s prose is what makes his books as good as they are, in my opinion.

        That is true, but I’d rather have a Sanderson-style finisher than none at all

  Please no. :(

  Just leave them be if that’s how it has to be. Don’t mutilate their poor corpses.
