FellKnight he/him Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 So I've been lurking for a couple of months now, and posting for a couple of weeks, I figure I should probably get my introduction post done! I'm 29, been a big Wheel of Time fan for about 15 years now, and only heard of Brandon after RJ's passing. I read tGS, and loved it, so then I went out and bought all of Brandon's books about 6 months ago (self-Christmas present, yes!!), and devoured them. I read Elantris first, and generally enjoyed it, but did not find it spectacular, I went with the Mistborn trilogy next, and was utterly stunned by how darn good it was. The ending was super-mega-awesomesauce-in-a-bottle. It was at that point that I knew that I would buy every one of Brandon's books in the future. Warbreaker was also made of awesome, and Way of Kings makes me shiver at the thought of how much time I'm going to spend over the next 15-20 years theorizing, guessing, discussing, and waiting breathlessly for the next book. I think the idea of the cosmere is sheer brilliance, and I did not get the Hoid stuff until I read the WB annotations (just before I started WoK), and I will admit, I squee'ed a little bit when I read in the first interlude how people were looking for Hoid (I guessed who he was right away! Go me!). The rest of WoK with all it's cosmere-y hints and clues are so cool. I can't wait to see where it goes from here! So after finishing the books, I read Brandon's entire site (annotations, blog posts from 001 to current, etc), then came here. I devoured the Brandonology in short order, and read through all the forums before posting. I want more. MORE. MOAAAAAR!! I may have a problem... my name is FellKnight, and I'm a Brandoholic. Fell
