How could they possibly be detected? You couldn't burn bronze to see if they were burning metals. They wouldn't even know they were using copper,  so how could you possibly find out if you are a coppercloud?

I liked it. Some of the dialogue seemed a bit contrived, but that's always what I have problems with, too. Short, but it had plenty of emotion.

Alcatraz is fantastic, but short. Kid's books, you know? How bout an Alcatraz book after Elantris, One after Warbreaker, and one once you finish the Mistborn trilogy.

Holy crap. You're right about Robert Downey Jr. I won't give up on Nathan Fillion, though!

Hope that worked. Tell me what you think.

Let's see if I can nail down my feelings precisely. Elantris is great, but has little action for a large chunk of the book. Mainly political drama, tension, a little romance, and a hint of horror, which is great.

Warbreaker is very fun. A little dark at times, and wonderful complex characters. It takes itself a little less seriously than others.

Mistborn has plenty of action, complex, wonderful characters, awesome magic, the hero's journey, thieves, slaves, tyranny, betrayal, laughs, romance,  and gritty action sequences spaced throughout. Not to mention, every book is better than the last and the endings are fantastic. Hero of Ages has one of the best endings I've ever read. Every time I read it i get an adrenaline rush in places. It's dark and brooding. If I were to read one book of Brandon's I would read the final Empire. Not because It's my favorite, 'cause it's not. But because .. . . ach, IDK. my feelings hate me.

The freelings and opinions expressed by Valkynphyre do not necessarily accurately represent the feelings of Valkynphyre or any of his associates. Feed the sheep. They're hungry.

Vampirotica is redundant like Tongue-lingua or Mortal-death.

+13 respect points

Just picked up some light reading *cough* from the library yesterday: Les Miserables, Dune, The Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever series, and still reading The Three Musketeers.

You should not assume that from the Prelude.

I still assume it, but no evidence from the prelude supports my assumption.
