Probably part of the problem is expecting them to be like Dresden. I think they're written for a different audience.
Those are some low standards. I like my fantasy books to actually be entertaining. The writing and plot of these books are so bad that it's nowhere near entertaining.

I couldn't get into it. What's worse is the Codex Alera write-up at the end of each Dresden Book

I don't think that books should be judged against standards they're clearly not meant to meet.

Re: I can't get through his fantasy epic, but I liked the Dresden book.
