Hi so I started reading Eye of the World when I was 8 years old(I'm 26 years old now). It's kind of a rite of passage in my family. My older brother had the Mistborn books for a while but the first BS book I read was Elantris and I instantly wanted more. Reading Brandon changed my literary life in a way I'm sure most of you here can relate to.
So when Robert Jordan died and Brandon took up his mantle I literally cried both from sadness at losing someone I thought of as an uncle and of selfish relief that my favorite author was finishing a story that had to be finished.
He. Did. Not. Disappoint.
Reading the last battle through Brandon's eyes and Roberts voice (with the help of Harriet of course) sometimes felt as if it was meant to be. That only Brandon could of truly finished those books and not even Robert was able to finish and slay the beast that he created. I will never forget closing that book.
Every year I have looked forward to what next this almost inhuman figure would put out knowing that I would never be disappointed.
I have since spread Brandon as far as I could but I need more. I need others that can't live a day without thinking about the cosmere. I need my theories questioned, broken, and a few times I hope that I'm able to add something that proves to be right. But if I'm wrong all the better! I'd rather be surprised.
So to whomever may be reading this, no matter where you are, let's find this universe's secrets.....or be gloriously wrong. Either way we win.
