frostflowers @ 08:31 am: As a lover of epic fantasy myself, I'll be taking these points to heart (i.e: avoid Acacia on the pain of death, because it sounds like it got my biggest pet peeves wrong).

It's a bit sad that so many authors fall into the traps of bad writing when they try to make their epic fantasy work - which probably explains why George RR Martin is currently the only epic fantasy writer I've got on my regular reading shelf. I'd love to find some more, but most of them turn out to be like Acacia seems to have.
