no .. because it's not our job.. he's the writer after all
nobody is disputing the fact that it's hard... but if you compare him to ANY other writer of that format he comes out looking like an amateur.
Look at erickson, sanderson, king .. they manage to write books of comparable size/quality on regular basis...
The fact that each book does not have a story arc that stands on its own coupled with the fact that he takes forever is what really pisses me off.
If he made his books be good enough to stand on their own merits, have a decent conclusions, maybe we wouldn't mind waiting so much ...
That's in my opinion a mark of a great book: being a part of a bigger story but also being a complete story in itself...
Anyways, maybe he doesn't owe us anything per se, but I still feel cheated.
