Kitai Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 Good morning all, I was introduced to Sanderson at Waterstones in Hampstead London. I had a problem at the time- I'd run out of new series to read ( The New Terry Pratchett book wasn't out yet- Snuff) and the sales person there suggested Mistborn. Since I'm picky ( meaning I don't like starting a series unless it's finished -otherwise I have to wait for books to be published.... Not a big fan of that- okay admission? I hate waiting for books to come out) Let's just say I devoured Mistborn within a week all three of them. I've read Elantris took me about 2 days ( my fiancé is in the navy so I got a lot of time to myself lol) I then read that the Wheel of Time was finished and that Brandon Sanderson ( bless him for stepping in) had taken it on himself to finish it I read that series as well. I just finished re-reading The Stormlight Archive- I'd had the Way of Kings in my sights for quite a very long time I just couldn't bring myself to start it. My fiancé great guy though he is said that I really should- so a year or so after here I am, a victim of signing up into a website just to hear news of my new favourite characters. Something personal about me, I'm 29 and recently I got a kitten as a birthday present. I adore him he makes my days brighter. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormgate he/him Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 The cookies are Hemalurgic spikes. Does the kitten have a Sanderson originated name (is it named Hoid, or Vin, or something)? Also, if you haven't noticed, Sanderson is much faster at writing books than other authors, so your problem with unfinished series is at least less of a problem. Also, have you looked at his short stories? He has some on his website, including some that are unpublished (I Hate Dragons is notably interesting.) Also, I just discovered I like the word 'also'! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenPlague he/him Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 The cookies are Hemalurgic spikes. You do realise it's pretty hard to sell something when people keep saying mean stuff like this, don't you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormgate he/him Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Hey, there are Sharders who want a good railroad spike in their eye. I'm just helping them make an informed decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
