So is Brandon friends with alot of these other fantasy writers? i am guessing he knows Jim Butcher? I would assume that alot of Science Fiction and Fantasy writers get to know each other from the cons. George RR Martin wrote multiple times that he was good friends with Robert Jordan.
Terry Pratchet writes more light-hearted and satirical fantasy rigtht? I think Brandon said he likes Pratchet. If I am going to read 1 pratchet book which should it be?
Does Brandon or any of the fan base here have a list of books they like? I went to the main page to look for some books, but I have to cycle through lots of reviews. You don't have them listed with stars. As I have said before, most Science Fiction and Fantasy is not that good.
So far people here like Stephen Erickson, Jim Butcher (semi-mixed reviews), and Terry Pratchet(which book should I read?)
I am still on the 2nd mistborn book. I don't have alot of couch time for reading. I am listening to Fires of Heaven on tape and going through all of them on tape before reading book 12. I read the books years ago and stopped at about book 9 I think. So I forgot alot. The performances of the audio books for Wheel of Time is VERY good. It is a different experience listening to all of them at once instead of waiting years between books. I also use the WoT Encyclopedia to find stuff I missed. I never realized that Tom Merrillons stories were references to us in the first age.
