Just ask Kevin Janderson how well the name change has worked for him.

I am appalled!
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

*Nessa retreats to a corner and laughs hysterically until she starts hiccupping. Thanks for that, Jeffe, I truly needed that today.

Just wanted to say ...great book.

is that a problem? I also almost bought a copy I saw in a used bookstore the other day... though I thought that that was a little sad...

All the better for Brandon. (Except he doesn't get anything from used book sales, of course.)

Saw this paragraph on Locus Online: "Notable books in new paperback editions this month include titles by Lois McMaster Bujold, Cory Doctorow, Walter H. Hunt, Stephen King, Sharon Lee & Steve Miller, Jane Lindskold, Patricia A. McKillip, Alastair Reynolds, Brandon Sanderson, and John Varley "

It's notable!

Though if you actually read the article, the description is "Fantasy novel, the author's first novel and a stand-alone, about a beautiful city, Elantris, where magic has failed, and a second city affected by the same curse."

Err... Oh well.
