Relatively New Sanderson Fan...relatively New To The Boars Here

[dayman]

Hello all. Posted a bit, read a bit, figured I post a little intro here. 

 

I was introduced to Sanderson early last year. Not a big fantasy guy, prior to last year I had basically just read ASOIAF (loved Michael Crichton as well...not fantasy but "fantastical"). Other than that I had basically read a lot of non-fiction biographies or just devoted reading energy to school. 

 

Started with Mistborn on recommendation (another general lit board I visited has a lot people who love the series). Too date, the Mistborn series is my favorite Sanderson and one of my favorite series overall. Unlike most people on the board that introduced me, I thought it got better as it went (Kandra are awesome). 

 

Anyway, I've now read every Cosmere novel there is (and the Reckoners books). I haven't managed to read any of the shorts that are in compilations though...and after having read Emperor's Soul I know I have get them eventually. 

 

Just wanted to say high. I love Sanderson, he's now my favorite active author. I started with and talked about Mistborn, and truly love Emperor's Soul, but all the others are fantastic as well. Anyway, I'm very interested in overall Cosmere discussion now, and am digging the possibilities for the what he is doing. 

 

Hello.

 

PS: Forgive the spelling and writing, it's late where I am and I've had some wine (the "violet" kind if you catch my meaning).

Welcome! Have an upvote and a yummy cookie, despite what vineyarddawg thinks about them. I think he just had a really bad and unfortunate childhood experience with a cookie or two.

Welcome to the forums! Mistborn and the Stormlight Archive are always warring for the title of my favourite series, I'm glad you enjoyed it so much.

Be sure to check out the social guilds section now that you're a member, we have lots of fun there. We also run an in-forum Reckoners Roleplay if you're interested.

Hope you have fun and enjoy that cookie.

No. You should become a Denizen. Then a Hazekiller.
