      Apologies. Robert Jordan is the author of the wheel of time series and I guess im used to speaking about him with wot (wheel of time) fans or such. I do the same with asimov (foundation and robot series), herbert (dune), and such. Its a bad habit.

        Outside of terry pratchett I can’t say I ever manage to remember author’s names even if I go through series multiple times but maybe that’s an audiobook problem, ooh and david wong

          It might be just a thing with so much media. I think older folks who were reading before the millenium remember authors names because reading was a very significant source of entertainment compared to anything else. So much so that books were made from movie series like the star trek and star wars ones.
