Title: Warbreaker Paperback!
Post by: Red, White, and Joker on March 27, 2010, 06:39:36 AM
"WARBREAKER paperback comes out next Tuesday with a WAY OF KINGS preview in the back. I hear it's already been seen in Walmart." @Brandon Sanderson http://twitter.com/BrandonSandrson/status/11051323133

This is Correct. I went on a Quest with fRR to see if we could find them, and find them we did. We bought two copies, and I must say, the WAY OF KINGS preview in the back is EPIC. But I digress.

The Paperback is gorgeous. The cover by Dan Dos Santos translates wonderfully to the glossy cover of the paperback edition, and while I do wish the spine (and the back) weren't RED/ORANGE, it's a great book, and I'm glad I picked it up.

Yes, Ink, it's the prologue. And it's the full prologue.

Yes, I agree.  And I'd also like to add, poor Szeth-son-son-Vallano.

Yes indeed.

Gosh Mi'ch it took me a minute to figure out who you were with your new name and all.  It was the NaNoWriMo that first gave it away, then I checked contact info. xD

As usual I bought the hardcover but waited for the paperback to actually read the book (I hate hate hate lugging around hardcovers). Just got it today, yay...

Picked mine up today - a nice surprise, considering I expected it to come out tomorrow, and would thus have to wait a few days before I could get to a bookstore.

Picked it up at a Wal-Mart on a whim. I realized I haven't actually read the final, published version, only the 3.1 draft that was provided to the public back before the book went to print.

It'll be interesting to see how it's changed.

Brandon has said he wants to do one eventually. The key word is "eventually". Possibly within the next five years, but then again, maybe not. That man has a ton on his plate.

It would be called Nightblood, and it would be about the Adventures of Vivenna and Nightblood and Talaxin/Warbreaker/Kalad/Peacegiver/Vasher.

From what he's said, it will answer how The First Returned was able to have a kid, develop Vivenna and Vasher's characters, answer some more BioChromatic questions, and be overall awesome.

That does sound awesome!  Thanks for the hint.  I just got my copy of Warbreaker and I've been tearing through it.
