I exist and am so excited for Oathbringer!

[A_Hux_Table]

Hi all, I'm a 22 (almost 23) year old, just finishing my physics masters degree in England.

I found Sanderson through the Way of Kings when I borrowed it from the library about a year and a half ago and fell in love with his work. I've been steadily devouring his books since then.. I'm not even nearly done which thrills me as I've loved all of the ones I've read. It will be a very sad day when I finally catch up to his release schedule..

I love pretty much all sf/f books, any recommendations will be happily received.

Nice to meet you all!!

That is a sad day... and it happens a few times a year. I guess that is better than if it happened every few years!

Welcome to the forums, and welcome to you as well.

Welcome! Great to have you here. Also, which of Brandon's books have you read?

Edit: And which is your favorite?

Hey Hux! I recently discovered Sanderson's work too! Nice to meet you!

Hi @lyht, @Rebecca & @Koloss, good to meet you all!  

At the moment I've read a bit of an odd selection.. I found The Way of Kings in the library (I love humongous books), read the first few pages and then didn't look back!

I've read:

• The Way of Kings
• Words of Radiance
• The Final Empire (but not the other two yet!)
• The Emperor's Soul
• Arcanum Unbounded (except the bits with spoiler for the books I haven't read)
• The Rithmatist

I've literally just started Elantris, and after that I intend to reread The Final Empire and the rest of the Mistborn books. Or I might read Warbreaker before I embark on the Mistborn books.. then on to the rest of the Cosmere! Not sure yet! I also want to leave time to reread the stormlight books before Oathbringer comes out in November.

As for favourites... I think all of the Stormlight Archives series will be my favourite, but I've devoured and loved everything of his that I've read - it's so hard to pick a favourite. 

I'm just about to take the last three exams for my degree, but then from the 5th September I'm free, so I'm planning on hibernating with books from then!

@Sami Hi! *waves* 

What's Sanderson Elimination?

[Sami she/her]

It's basically Mafia/Werewolf. Except its usually Sanderson based so that makes even more awesome
