I was analyzing writing styles and tropes of different authors, and I thought how some of the books we know and love, Mistborn Way of kings, etc., would be very, very different if written by other famous fantasy authors. Here are some examples: Christopher Paolini - Author of the Inheritance cycle The Mistborn Trilogy would have had the Lord Ruler feeling bad about persecuting the Terris people and Oppressing the Ska. everyone would have gotten full allomantic abilities and a dragon and lived happily ever after. Kelsier would have been Vin's father. George R. Martin - A Song of Ice and Fire All of the Magic would be removed except for a few small things and replaced with sex. Sadeas would have slaughtered the entire Kholin family and taken the throne. Silence would have killed everyone at her inn in a forbidden ritual to save her daughter's life. The result would be an evil demon child thing. Terry Pratchett - The Discworld Series Where to start? Death and Hoid would be very familiar with each other. Nale would smoke a cigar. Nightblood would ramble incessantly about tapestries. Greatshells would be turtles. The Storm father would be an ascended janitor who sought to cleanse the land with a decent wash and a good scrubbing. Elkohar would carry his teddy with him everywhere. Rock would have been a troll, Teft a wizard drop-out, and Lopen would sell chouta at discount prices. kaladin would be the rightful ruler of the alethi, but choose to remain a captain instead. The Stick would actually have been sapient pear-wood and had the power to destroy the Discmere, but no one would have noticed. Sazed would have been an orangutan(quiet, scholarly, and insanely strong when the need arose), the become the first ascendant orangutan C. S. Lewis - The Chronicles of Narnia Hoid would be Jesus.
