Wheel of Time also got me into reading Sanderson's novels (it was my first fantasy read, and I totally get what you mean, should've started out with a loner. But no. Of course not. XD) I haven't even read The Way of Kings yet. ;~; I'm in the process, but real life keeps getting between me and probably one of the greatest books ever. I definitely can't wait until I can actually participate in all the discussions about theories. And welcome to the forums!

I definitely started with Wheel of Time. (Which totally blew my mind, being my first fantasy novel - I remember wondering, "Are all fantasy books so detailed?!") And, I was a bit worried that Brandon Sanderson wouldn't be able to live up to the challenge of completing the series, so I went to the library immediately and checked out the first Mistborn. I immediately fell in love with it. He became one of my favorite authors immediately. And every other book of his that I've read is absolutely amazing in my eyes. Definitely - in the weirdest way - glad I questioned his abilities, because they completely surpassed my expectations.

Useless trivia is the best trivia! I just joined a few days ago as well, and I signed up for Reading Excuses - I think it's definitely what you're looking for. Do join us! By any chance, do you like manga/anime? And welcome to 17th Shard! I'm 15 myself, so yay youngsters!

I would agree, I don't think the Divine Breath remains with the recipient or the person who gave it away - though the effects of when it's used certainly do stay with the recipient. Otherwise, as I think DariusJenai said, there'd be civilians who suddenly became Returned after having their wishes granted.

Hi, Windrunner! Yes, I have seen Korra, I loved it! I do wish the season were longer though, but I'm glad they're releasing Book 2 soon. I'm so excited for it - I saw a small preview online from Comic-Con, and it looked pretty interesting. Something to do with a spirit monster, I think? And thanks, the more I hear about TWoK the more excited I get to read it.

To JamesW and Brendan: I actually just rented it, just now. Brendan's urging worked. XD I think the length of it intimidated me at first, which is why I haven't read it yet, but now I'm really excited to start To Joe ST: Depends. If that by chance is Avatar (the last Airbender), then yes, I most definitely am a fan. But other than that, I can't for the life of me figure out what AtlA stands for, haha. And thank you, I'm glad to be on board!

I'm glad to know everyone's nice here I definitely hope they'll protect me from these unknown terrors, though. (At least, my hope is that they won't feed me to them. Please use the waffles as substitutes, they're probably much softer, better for the stomach.) Ah, Wheel of Time! Honestly, that was the series that introduced me to Brandon Sanderson's works, though I immediately fell in love with them. As far as I know, the books of his that I haven't read are Way of Kings and the fourth Mistborn book, though hopefully that'll change soon, haha. Wow, thanks for the suggestions, though! I appreciate it, I've been basically wandering the world of fantasy, unsure of where to start. I'll definitely get reading them soon, I'll let you know how I like them!

Seeing as the forum description urged that I declare to the world I exist, well, here I am. Though I am very excited to get to know everyone (Plus, they did say all the cool people were doing it, and it's always rather been a dream of mine to be cool.) Hum. I'm actually probably still a newcomer to the fantasy genre, though I've loved Sanderson's books for a few years now - I haven't gotten to reading many more fantasy books, to my own shame. Though I would be eternally grateful for anyone who could direct me to some other good fantasy reads, I have no idea where to start. :S About me. Well, I hail from the great ol' windy city of Chicago in the great ol' country of the US. I'm the black sheep of my family concerning literature, being the only one that enjoys fantasy and magic instead of reality and solely ours. I even like to write often (fantasy, of course) and I always feel like Brandon Sanderson's books inspire me to write more. Not sure what else to put about myself. I do very much enjoy drawing. I rather like cheese. I find pogo sticks quite dangerous. Well, I guess the more time I spend here, the more you'll learn about me. Again, looking forward to meeting everyone here! -Mo
