I only heard of Sanderson when he started on the Wheel of Time. Is Mistborn the best place to start reading him?

[–] BugleFingers 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do believe the Mistborn series is exemplary in showcasing his writing. He's great with interacting with the world and making characters "discover" it in a way few authors do. Mostly by making them question and want to learn. I.E. "I got this ability, but what can I do with it"

The series is also pretty standalone and was my first experience with him. It encouraged me to read more of his material, so hopefully, it will for you as well!

Awesome, thanks for the recommendation. I know what I'm getting myself for Christmas now 🌝
