Brandon Sanderson / Atium question
« on: January 25, 2008, 02:30:38 PM »
This may be answered in The Well of Ascension but is there such a thing as a misting that can only burn atium? I mean other mistings find out after they snap because of the trace metals in the water they drink and such. Although, if your a misting that can only burn atium how would you ever know? I'm just curious....

Crux,

What do you think of all of the transitions/progressions Atreyu has gone through from Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses all the way to Lead Sails Paper Anchor? Especially, what do you think of the fact that Brandon Saller has pretty much taken over the lead from Alex Varkatzas?


Oh and just a little FYI, Atreyu is on the Taste of Chaos tour with A7X and BFMV, just in case you already didn't know...

I have to agree with you three. Since the announcement I've been reading Mr. Sanderson's work and I am now a spokesman/salesman for his books. Big ups to Mr. Sanderson, he certainly deserves it as all of here would agree.

Everything Else / Sword Fighting Prowess
« on: January 24, 2008, 06:11:17 PM »
I think I'm going to have to go with Rand on this one. For one he's taveren, things will happen just right for him to win, maybe. Two, he is a Blademaster by trial-by-fire, for beheading the High Lord. Above all else he is absoulutely fearless. Oh and by the way he is the freakin Dragon Reborn!.....


Now that I look at the choices I think Drizzt is automatically disqualified unless he uses different swords. This is supposed to be a straight up sword fight and his blades are magical....

Hey Crux, I see you have Bullet for My Valentine on your most listened to list. Ever listen to any Killswitch Engage or As I Lay Dying? They are two fantastic Metalcore bands...

Brandon Sanderson / The coolest sword ever...Nightblood
« on: January 23, 2008, 10:41:52 PM »
I recently read on Mr. Sanderson's web site that the Warbreaker sequel may be titled Nightblood. The fact that it even has a chance to be titled that is IMO a very good thing. For starters, I thought Warbreaker was going to be a stand alone book and the fact that there is a sequel is very neat indeed. Also, since he was even tenatively thinking to title the book Nightblood leads me to believe that it...well...has a lot to do with Nightblood. Which is absolutely awesome seeing how it IS the coolest sword ever! I just loved every scene it was in. The conversations between it and Vasher were absolutely fantastic. Especially the way it spoke the users thoughts like they were it's own. Then finally towards the end of the book Vasher finally unsheathes Nightblood and mass-laying-waste-to-bad-guys ensues! Fantastic!

I just had to get that out there. I know Mr. Sanderson has a lot on his plate and the sequel won't be out till 2009 or later but I definately will be eager anticipating it's release!

Site News / Re: Introduce yourself - right on!

Hello all!!! Like others before me I am WOTaholic and am very impressed with Mr. Sanderson works. After reading a couple of his books, Warbreaker v3.0 and the first Mistborn, I am now a huge fan. This seems like a good forum for myself as I am into reading, fantasy especially but other genres as well, video games, music mostly metal, all kinds of movies and just recently began to dabble in D&D again. As for that last one I'm not sure I like how rapidly they are introducing new versions. But, anyways hello everyone!

Movies and TV / Re: Heath Ledger's Last Role: The Joker

I agree it is extremely sad. Not only was he 28 but he also had a two year old daughter. A down right shame if you ask me. I really did like him as an actor. Although, I am sure the ones who loved him for who he was and what he was will take this far harder than anyone who will post here...

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Warbreaker: Free Ebook
« on: January 23, 2008, 05:53:11 PM »
First of all I just wanted to say that, I think, Mr. Sanderson is a fantastic author. I was an enormous Robert Jordan fan and I believe that the Wheel of Time is the greatest series ever. However, with the unfortunate passing of James Rigney(Robert Jordan) and the decision by his wife to have Mr. Sanderson finish the series, I have found a new author that I enjoy very much. I have read Warbreaker version 3.0 which was awesome and have read the first installment of Mistborn which was equally fantastic. Now I will probably wait for the second installment to come out in paperback as I find it troublesome to read hardcovers. Although, I may just have to suck it up as I can't wait to see how Vin and the others put together the new empire. Ah...but I digress, what I would like to know is if anyone has read version 4.2 and if they have can they let me know if there are any really significant changes made....

Keep up the great work Mr. Brandon Sanderson!!!!
