  1. Hi everyone, I'm a 35 year old who started picking up reading as a serious pastime now that my introversion has taken full form as an adult. After tumbling down a fantasy rabbit hole from games to book, I fell upon Sanderson through YouTube, and the man himself suggested Mistborn as a starting point. I came in with zero to low expectations, and about a 1/3 into the book, and I am floored....at how fun and "magical" it is. The only other time I felt this was reading Harry Potter as a 5th grader and reading Bradbury in college. My question to you guys is, if Mistborn is a good introduction to Sanderson, will his other books provide me the same type of magic? Am I really naive as to how good his other books are? I am loving the book so far, will finish the trilogy, but I am hoping someone can point me to towards something a bit darker and more mature after this series. All in all, this book is so freaking amazing, I honestly can't believe that as a man in his mid 30's that I feel like a kid reading a book in a nook in a library again. Haha! Nice to meet you all! P.S The only reason I am finding about Sanderson now is I haven't read any Fantasy genre books for the past 11 years and only recent redeveloped the palette for it. Desku
