![]() ![]() ![]() It is because of this stellar track record that I didn’t hesitate when the book club I’m a part of decided to pick up Elantris for our May read. To say that I was blown away is something of an understatement after reading that novel I practically inhaled the two other books in the first trilogy, and while I haven’t gotten around to reading the sequel trilogy, it’s because I got sucked into the even more epic (and even more delightful) Stormlight Archive. The first book of his that I ever read was The Final Empire, which is the first novel in the Mistborn series. That was the case with Brandon Sanderson. And then there are those times when I start reading an author’s works in the middle of their careers, when they already have a few (or several, if they are prolific) books under their belt and are still capable of producing many more. Sometimes I come to it at the end, when the author has either not written anything in a very long time or (as is more often the case) already passed away. Sometimes I get lucky, and come in at the ground floor, as it were, picking up an author’s debut novel and then following them as their career (hopefully) grows and flourishes. I come across writers at various stage of their career. ![]()
