I think a major problem with a lot of fantasy based light novels though is that the writer tends to only go in with a basic idea, and for reference on how to start their story, they refer to other similar light novels. It just kind of creates a cycle of similar and somewhat lacking openings, which is certainly disappointing.

If many out there on the internet think that Reki Kawahara is a low hanging fruit when it comes to writing then maybe tons of authors should take the first 20 pages out of the first volume on his works ... 

Despite what extreme protesters say about his work he does do a good job on avoiding tropes and that's heavily reflected on the anime adaptions first debut when they don't go around shoving in tsunderes, fan service, and girls with big racks in the first episode ...
