The reason, I believe, that WoW novels are terrible (though not necessarily bad on their own) compared to original fantasy work is that an author of an original fantasy work chooses the plot, they feel the heartbeat of the novel, they hear it sing, and they write well enough we hear it too.

But an author who's told what to write won't feel that same passion. It's just a job. So that passion will be lacking.
