This story is endless. No matter how strong the hero gets, he is never strong enough. Some of the books in this series are nothing but him training just so he can lose a fight in the next book. It would be nice if the story would progress, but it never does. All the characters are in worse positions now then when the series started. By the 7th book I would expect the main character to have at least started to move towards his goal. The author will probably die before he finishes the story. If you’re going to write an endless story, give me something; some accomplishment to make me think it’s going somewhere. I tire of the obvious bad decisions and cartoonishly evil villains. This hero never wins.
