Dr_WHB he/him Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Retired physics professor from CALTECH. Reading more Fantasy lately. Really liked WHEELS OF TIME, STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE, RITHMATIST, ELANTRIS, and the first three MISTBORN series. Did not like STEELHEART. I feel THE EMPEROR's SOUL is one of best short stories (my framework of short) written. It compares to A RIVER RUNS THOUGHT IT. 5
Quiver he/him Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Retired physics professor? This fandom makes me feel increasingly self-conscious about my lack of a career. Anyway, welcome. Can't judge Wheel, or any of Brandons non-cosmere works, but I agree with enjoying Mistborn and Stormlight. I'd recommend reading Warbreaker though. I say it a lot, but it's my favourite Cosmere book thus far. 1
Queen Elsa Steelheart she/her Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Welcome! Are you currently reading a Sanderson book at the moment?
Tien'sPetLurg she/her Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Hi! I'm curious as to your thoughts on Steelheart if you care to share. I enjoyed The Emperor's Soul. I didn't read A River Runs Through It but watched the film. The first time I was too young to get it. I was bored. A few years later I gave it another go and loved it. I imagine, as is usual, the book is even better.Welcome!
