What's the first one?


Ummm...I think it is called The Becoming. The second one is Blood Drive and the third is The Watcher.

A fourth one is coming out in September, I believe.

Thanks! They look interesting.

I just start Kushiel's Justice. I'm only a bit over a hundred pages in, but - oh, my.

Currently reading The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson. Pretty neat. I like his magic systems.

Is it as good as Mistborn? I've been waiting until The Hero of Ages comes to to read it because Raven said there's a huge cliffhanger and I know that'll drive me nuts.

Do they, Nat? devil

Hopefully the sci-fi section of my uni's library will have those Brandon Sanderson books, I've been meaning to read them since Nat suggested them to me. I don't have the money to buy anymore books since I just bought and finished reading Breaking Dawn yesterday. My next book will probably be a) a textbook or b) a play. Maybe I'll go and read Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead again... thinking silly

It's... different. It's got a different feel from Mistborn, but I like it just as much. It's a bit more grim than the first book. Like the cover blurb says, taking down an empire is one thing, creating another one out of the ashes is something else entirely. Yes, there's a really big cliffhanger (stayed up late finishing it). It relates to the Lord Ruler's last words. It's driving me nuts. Can't wait for the third book.

I'm kind of peeved. I picked up both books at the same time before I went to England for three weeks. When I came back, I found another edition of Mistborn that had Vin on the cover. I think it's the same one you got. I like that cover better than the one I've got. I'm thinking of buying that one and selling my copy to a used-book store.

Now I'm going to go read the chapter annotations for Well.

I'm currently reading through volume 2 of the incredible Astro City. A tremendous series that is everything a comic should aspire to be and I discover new things I like about each time through.

Golden Fool by Robin Hobb.


There are too many editions of the Mistborn books. I hate having different styles of the books.
