It's not so much an unwillingness to read old shit, it was an unwillingness to read anything that was an inch out of his comfort zone.

A short list of his frequent reasons for rejecting book suggestions:

>must have "expansive lore"
>can't be boring
>can't be depressing
>can't be too long
>can't use too many uncommon words
>can't be too descriptive (anything more than two sentences about a character or location is considered 'too descriptive') because he doesn't want to be told how a character/location looks or how a character is processing an event
