    I don’t really like BrandoSando that much, tbh.

      I do. Depend on books though, but he’s currently top fantasy writer. I especially love his forst book “Elantris”. Stormlight is very good too. His most famous cycle “Mistborn” is pretty much overrated, but i love how he learned through it and took feedback, for example in the first book he did ridiculously overworded action descriptions dragging endlessly, but later he did resigned from that.

      Another thing i like is his take on magic. For every new setting he thinks of something fun and new and mostly coherent to be integral part of his world, instead of making magic recycled puken out pseudo-mysterious pizza like most other authors.

      Other his books i read: Warbreaker - good, Rithmatist - scholomance genre but actually very good, Skyward - worst i ever read and only one i never read more than once.

        I stopped reading his main series of novels. That is, the Stormlight Archives series, which is supposed to be his magnum opus, or at least the closest thing to it.

        This was after the second book. I never read the third book and certainly not the current fourth one.

        I suppose I could explore more of his repertoire, but frankly, I don’t really feel like taking a gander at the moment. Maybe later. Maybe never. I’m actually trying to explore more obscure works and genres, similar to what @SovereignState@lemmygrad.ml is doing with that “Satanist” novel that he’s reading from the time of the Bolshevik revolution.
