So there's this shelf in the BYU bookstore where they keep all of Brandon Sanderson's books. Nice big happy display. Hardbacks, paperbacks, signed and numbered copies of Warbreaker, The Gathering Storm, Alcatraz, it's all there. I walk by here from time to time, just so that if anyone happens to glance at them going by I can heartily recommend them. Now the tragedy. I went by today, and while the pile is still there, the shelf has now been invaded by a pile of Stephanie Meyer's books. Brandon Sanderson and Stephanie Meyer, on the same display shelf. Maybe I'm making too big a deal about this, but this is eating my soul.
Welcome to the business of economics, tragic but true, Stephanie Meyers out sold Brandon's books so I'm not surprised that happened.
Still, we can moan and bewail the tragedy, or maybe launch a protest and have a book burning –only kidding
Me, I'm probably a traitor to this cause though because I've read both authors and enjoyed them, though Brandon's is a little more to my liking than teenage vampire romances –I skipped many a pages of Twilight when the lovey-dovey stuff became too much.
