Brandon Sanderson / Re: What should I read next?
« on: November 06, 2009, 09:45:49 AM »
I would second the Dresden Files motion but they're a totally different genre than the epic fantasy Brandon and Mr. Jordan have created.  But if you even remotely like Urban Fantasy then Dresden Files is a MUST!  Butcher's Alera series is . . . okay . . .  I wasn't thoroughly impressed with it.  But I must point out that the book I read right before the first Alera book was Hero of Ages.  Alera couldn't even come close.

I must shamelessly admit that Brandon Sanderson's WoT gig drew me here.  Strangely during my time at BYU I never found my way to this forum - guess I spent too much time in the Theatre department  and not enough time in the English department.

I am an avid sci-fi/fantasy reader and devour just about anything good I can get my hands on - most recently the fabulous Mr. Sanderson's complete works to date.  I am also a huge fan of console RPG's, particularly the Final Fantasy series, for which I webmistress a fan-site.  When I'm not at my less-than-perfect job grooming dogs I divide most of my time between reading, video games, and writing.  I'm an aspiring writer but I'm also working my way into the video game industry as a game designer.

I also spend some of my free time watching anime, reading manga, and participating in anime conventions (and yes I cosplay).

Mostly I'm here for suggestions on new books to read and perhaps writing tips from others pursuing a writing career.  I'll probably drop into the video game forum too.
