Praise for Mistborn
« on: January 09, 2008, 05:15:15 AM »
I am one of those Wheel of Time fans who desperately needed something to read while BS finished the final WOT book.    Well, I was very pleasantly surprised, and after reading both Final Empire and Well of Ascension, I am thoroughly impressed with Brandon Sanderson's work.  His ability to make unexpected plot twists is better than any author I have read, and I really enjoy an unpredictable story.  Mr. Sanderson, thank you so much for finishing AMOL!

My only complaint is that now I have to wait 10 months to get MB3?   Will there be any preview chapters released?  I can feel the withdrawal symptoms beginning already...

As an aside, do we know what EUOL stands for?

Yes if you read around the forums in a few places like the FAQ thread for the TWG forums I believe you shall see that it stands for Evil Undead OverLord and is apparently pronounced yule (from the Holiday Name thread I believe.) :D

I believe EUOL had a deal with Tor to bring out MB3 in June (I think it was June...) of this year, so it's not that much longer of a wait.  (At least, that's what he said when he did the WoA release.  It may have since changed.)

(Anyone know if he's doing a release party again for it down at Walden?  I know he said he couldn't do a three day prior release again, but is he at least going to do a release party of some sort?)
