Hey, I'm Mark and I'm new. My full pseudonym is Mark Adrian, and you can call me Mark or Adrian, I don't mind either way. I do like Adrian quite a bit though, but Mark is fine.

I also am interested in the Beatles, Green Day, Fall Out Boy, Muse, My Chemical Romance, Twenty One Pilots, and many other bands. 

I read Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, and Action. Specifically Maximum Ride, The Hunger Games, Artemis Fowl, Alcatraz Versus The Evil Librarians, The Monstrumologist, and Alex Rider. Also The Reckoners books.

Hello Mark/Adrian! Maximum Ride is excellent, and your interest in pop punk is admirable.

I am bleeder. I like vests and music.

@bleeder Thanks, dude. 

I've read Ender's Game and most of the books in that universe. Did you read the prequel series (Earth Unaware, Earth Afire, Earth Awakens)?

Anyways have a good time here on the shard, have a cookie and some upvotes (note: upvote goes best with the cookies)

[Mark Adrian]

@Secrets I've read Ender's Game, Ender's Shadow and I have read a bit of Speaker For The Dead.

Also, thanks for the cookies. 

[manukos he/him]

ohhh @Mark Adrian i love ender's game , mostly because of the moral philosophy part 

also something seems that is wrong with yours (@)   you should have them checked up

P.S. did you eat the cookies ? how did they taste?

 

[Jedal he/him]

@Mark Adrian Trust me when I tell you Bleeder is trying to screw with you. Everyone eats the cookies. Also, welcome to the Shard! I'm Orderbound. Have an upvote! I happen to be a sort of...investigator, attempting to discover the secrets of the Shard and how nerds work. You can become a nerd anthropologist like me and help me catalog these wondrous creatures.

Ender's Game is extremely good, mostly because of how Card knows how a child works, and how profound Ender's experiences are.

Read the Way of Kings. It is too good to be true. Also, if that happens to be too long, hit up Mistborn first, that will surely get you hooked onto Sanderson if you are not already. Soon you won't want to read anyone else.

Finish the series, its... interesting.

Glad to hear that, as of my post, you should be hearing voices in a few days...

[Ammanas]

Welcome Mark! Do you read the Culture series by Banks? That's my favorite science fiction series. My favorite one of those is Player of Games followed by The Hydrogen Sonata (this one often gets overlooked by fans). I also love The Dragon Never Sleeps by Glen Cook.

[Mark Adrian]

@Ammanas Unfortunately I have not read those books. 

[Xander Freud he/him]

Finish all the Ender/Bean books. I loved them and Orson Scott Card is also a great author. Which of Brandon Sandersons novels have you read so far?

[Mark Adrian]

 @Xander Freud The Alcatraz Versus The Evil Librarians books and I've read a bit of Steelheart. I have all the books in the Reckoners series, but I'm very busy so I haven't gotten around to reading them yet.

Would you like to recommend any Brandon Sanderson books?

If you have time to enjoy a long, detailed book I'd say the Stormlight archives. For a shorter, but just as enjoyable experience, I'd recommend Mistborn.
