Books
Posted: Tue May 20, 2014 3:41 am
Recently, I finally got my hand on the Mistborn trilogy that Anna talked about a while back, and feel deeply in love with it. Couldn't put it down.
But I wasn't satisfied there, I looked up more stuff by Brandon Sanderson (the author), and discovered his multitude of fantasy novels. I've read almost all of them now, and I am still craving more.
You see, Sanderson created a universe, which he calls the "cosmere," that contains the many different planets where each of his fantasy novels takes place on. The "gods" of each planet are actually shards of some prior, unknown force, and each magic system is tied to that God. There are also characters that are found in more than one of his series (despite them otherwise being unrelated), and there is even one who appears in EVERY SINGLE BOOK, who has this ability to "worldhop," which is exactly what it sounds like.
Regardless, I love these books so much. I just finished Warbreaker, and found myself having completely caught up on his cosmere books. It makes me sad.
So, books!
