Left Hand of Darkness deserves it's fame, bitter-sweet throughout but it is still amazing!

@Steve how does it measure up against the series?

Facebook puts it at 37% as of last night... and he mentioned something about foreseeing Monday as being a long day to finish it up. So I'm guessing it's coming out this year.

Gardens is enjoyable, ignore everyone bashing it. I know plenty of people who have just as hard a time getting into Eye of the World.

Finished Name of The Wind. ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! It has the sense of wonderment that so many books try to imitate along with a very strong sense of realism, truly genius.

Card is overrated, sorry but he is.

Anyways I bought Name of the Wind, To Sail beyond the Sunset, and For Us the Living last night psyched!

Ed was cool Robb annoyed the hell out of me, but then again so does his momma. (she's better now though.... much more interesting this last book) I love the realism, it draws the reader in much more so and you start to love even the little s**** of the story like Tyrion because they are ALWAYS in danger. It is in short much more engaging.

The Cat that Walks Through Walls was fabulous! Revolt in 2100 is good so far and Utah is a place of interest because Mormons and Catholics are oppressed by the current "Christian" regime. The main character starts off as a fanatic and you see him change over time.... other than the fact that he is passive aggressive he reminds me of what I went through, irritatingly well written. Good Stuff!

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Brandon cited in caustic student evaluation

After reading the article, I'm willing to bet that the student is exaggerating and probably rather right winged. It sounds like a battle between two extremes, and I'm learning to stay away from extremes and extremist.
