QUOTE(highbury1913 @ Oct 17 2012, 05:17 PM) Love that list. Surprised a fantasy fan doesn't list a Song of Ice and Fire. Stormlight Archive only has 1 book so far right? What do you think of B. Sanderson's other series Mistborn? Heard its quite good. didnt wanna step into another Fantasy world yet. lol, thats y i didnt start on Song of Ice n Fire. That said, I did watch their series and again, would hate to spoil the surprise in the series by reading the book. The series has a pretty good show. As for Stormlight Archive, yap, B. Sanderson is workin on Stormlight 2. As for Mistborn series, it is full of plot twist and is one of the BEST book i have read. Keep me going back for more.  You should really get all 3 book and start on book one ASAP. |

The TV show does not give enough screen time to the minor characters that tend to make the book great. In fact, the author George RR Martin already said that the TV show might write themselves into a wall as some minor characters will become major but the show didn't give enough screen time (or in some cases removed the character altogether) to the minor characters. You are opening a new can of worm with The Way of Kings. That in it self is a set of epic fantasy in work I just bought The Way of Kings. Once I'm done with that and if I'm impressed by Sanderson's writing style I might get Mistborn. While we're on the topic of epic fantasies we're reluctant to get into, mine is Jordan's Wheel of Time series. Just don't have the drive to start an adventure that will take me through 14/15 books. Gonna stick to trilogies after using up all my energy finishing the Song of Ice and Fire within 6 months. Speaking of trilogies, are you a fan of the "Trilogy of Five" aka Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? As for Song of Fire and Ice, I am looking to start on that, but AFTER i am done with Robert Jordan WoT series. I am now up to book 11. 4 more to go . Phew... As for Douglas Adams, I have entertained thoughts of touching that series but not yet. not yet... Its going to be a heck of a reading. I liked the first book, its quirky, weird and funny. I did just finish Brewn Weeks. The blinding knife, its pretty good in the middle part, the whole thing started slow but at the center of the book, he picked up quite a momentum and threw lots of plot twist into the story. NICE. I am now eagerly awaiting COLD DAYS by Jim butcher. Its supposed to be good. Very good. Lastly, I would urge you to read Patrick Rothfuss books if you have not done so. It is Harry potter for the adults. Epic stuff. Loved it more than Brandon Sanderson's book. |
