I've been on a Sanderson kick lately, after finally getting to the end of WoT, I tore through the first Mistborn trilogy and just finished Words of Radiance. Definitely enjoyed that Lift interlude, sucks to be you if you hate awesomeness, I guess. Not sure if I should move on to Alloy of Law yet, or wait until the fall when the next book is supposed to come out. I know Brandon's a machine, but I know there's a long way to go for the rest of Stormlight, and I'm not sure I want to be waiting on two series at once. At least he gives us satisfyingly epic endings to each individual book, which is more than I can say for GRRM or Jordan. Maybe I just need to step away from the serial fantasy for a while, and read some quality stand alone fiction by dead authors.

Tunicate posted:Well, remember that Alloy is going to get two sequels within a couple months, but those are 1 and 2 of a split off trilogy. What? It's not even 5 & 6? So when is the actual 5th main storyline Mistborn book coming?

I didn't know it was actually possible, but I've gotten to the point where I'm almost done reading all of Sanderson's non-YA books and novellas. Currently reading Emperor's Soul (So good!) and then Perfect State. After that I guess it'll be Rithmatist and Alcatraz. This has been the perfect come down after Infinite Jest. Hopefully he'll publish 2-3 more books before I finish the YA stuff. Halfway through Emperor's Soul, and it's been absolutely delightful. If it keeps it up it may end up my favorite, not sure why its hitting all the sweet spots with pretty much all the action taking place in a single room, but I can't get enough.

Yeah, ended up finishing it up last night in a bout of insomnia. Absolutely fantastic. Almost done with Perfect State now, and it's been good but it's no ES.

I may have a problem. Bought Rithmatist yesterday, finished it today. I enjoyed it quite a bit, though it definitely leaves a lot hanging. Rapidly running out of his stuff.
