Maybe he'll be interested in it a couple or two of years later.

I hope so, but I doubt it. He's gone from "Exodus" and "Mila 18" to reading about the Nazi doctors and concentration camps…I have basically given up all hope.

I never said that they weren't interesting. Just that my brother reads them too much and doesn't like fantasy  8).

(Not that there's anything wrong with not like fantasy/reading other genres. It'd just be nice if he tried it.)

I have yet to convert anyone.  I am the only person in my family that reads at all. I have a pretty large collection though.  I ended up having to stop buying paperbacks because the fall apart on me though.  I'm glad that Brandon got the the last book of WoT because it made me go buy his Elantris book.  It was a great read and I immediately went back to the bookstore to pick up his other books.  I have read them all now including warbreaker.  Hopefully when my fiance gets here at the end of the month I can get her into reading.  I will probably start her on something a little lighter like Harry Potter because her English is not perfect yet.
