Hi All!
I'm Jim. I've seen this forum a hundred times, but only just decided to join. Like all of you (I'm assuming), I love Sanderson's work. I'm especially into Mistborn and The Stormlight Archive.
I also write my own novels. I'm currently unpublished (outside of WattPad), but I hope to soon publish some of my epic fantasy. I'm very much influenced by Brandon Sanderson, Robert Jordan, GRRM, and Steven Erikson.
I have a question though! I would love to find more books with a similar tone/feel as The Stormlight Archive. I love excellent world building, good character development, and a sense of grand scale. I'm looking for lesser known authors that have perhaps released books/series in the past 5-10 years that I may have missed. I wouldn't mind stories that are a bit darker, but not crazy dark.
If you could comment below with stories that you love that you think I'd love (being that I'm a big Mistborn and Stormlight fan), I'd really appreciate it! Help feed my epic fantasy addiction!
