Brandon Sanderson / Re: Book Plates

I would have to agree Cathar. It would certainly be cheaper for me than travelling all the way over there which I am seriously considering.
News:
Max is a Shadowblade, a supernatural--and supernaturally competent--warrior bound to protect her witch Giselle. As a Shadowblade, Max doesn't age. She is better, faster, stronger than any ordinary human being. And she hates it. Giselle betrayed her trust to make Max what she is, and though she is magically compelled to protect Giselle and follow orders, Max works against her witch in every way she can.

I'm getting fed up waiting for my copy of Alcatraz to arrive from America. This sucks, I'm resigned to doing rereads again. I NEED a new book. 
I suppose I should be grateful that I have so many great books that rereads aren't that bad but still I so wish it would hurry up.

Well I'm just back from seeing it and I have to say it was brilliant. I'm not a fan of star trek, in fact I have always hated it but if this is the way star trek continues I will happily change my opinion.

I'm finally getting a girly night on the town. 
No more kids just alcohol and some great tunes. It's been too long.

I totally agree with you I too am waiting for the next Inheritance book and hate that there is absolutely no word on what is happening with it. I have the same problem with Elizabeth Haydon and her War of the Known World books. Not a word about when it will be out or even if she's writing it yet and her website has been shut down.
Arghh it's so annoying. That's why I admire writer's like Brandon who keep their fans in the loop so to speak about what's happening with their books.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Congrats to Ookla The Mok
« on: May 13, 2009, 08:02:12 AM »Ookla, by big picture comments do you mean comments on story flow, continuity, cohesion, and character development?
Ookla don't get me wrong I am definitely aware of this fact however at the time I wrote the comment I was very tired and they were the first things that popped into my head plus I was to lazy to write the rest which is why I added the etc. Also I was trying to point out that I don't have a problem with that sort of thing and can still enjoy a book despite that.

I have to agree I would love to be an alpha reader. Dealing with typos, grammar etc is a small price to pay to see the book early, to see it develop. Awesome

I agree Robin Hobbs Farseer, Liveship and Fools trilogy's were all good, they keep wanting more and I regularly go back for a re-read. Her Soldier Son trilogy was to be honest dire. The first book left me feeling meh and i wasn't sure whether to read the second. In the end I did and I regret it. I never bother wasting my money on the third, it's made me reluctant to buy any more of her books.
That's what I love about Brandon's book, time and again his books grab you and keep you begging for more. I know TWoKs will do the same and even though I glad he's working hard on the WoT I'm glad he's still working on his own stuff because I can't get enough of it.

Well I finally went out and bought it and I that's me just finished reading it. I read the whole thing in just under 6 hours. All I can say is WOW I loved it. It's not my usual style but couldn't resist checking it out after reading about it. Definitely glad I did, I couldn't put it down. I can't wait to read book 2.
