Alcatraz Versus The Scrivener's Bones (Alcatraz)

Brandon Sanderson

Scholastic Press, 2008

Why are you reading Stephanie Meyer when you can have Alcatraz?
I have only two issues with Brandon Sanderson. Firstly, he should stop everything else he is doing and write more Alcatraz books. I like his adult fantasy, don't get me wrong, and I'm super excited about his finishing the Wheel of Time, but Alcatraz is better. ...

The Well of Ascension (Mistborn, Book 2)

Brandon Sanderson

Tor Books, 2007

Beyond Fantastic
This book is terrific. It embodies all the superb elements of fantasy novels and discards most, if not all, of the undesirable elements. This is rounded out with great character development, a mature and realistic romance, and a couple of great plot twists. If you ...

Alcatraz Versus The Evil Librarians (Alcatraz)

Brandon Sanderson

Scholastic Paperbacks, 2008

I have NEVER enjoyed a book more
Mr Sanderson's sense of humor is deserving of either a Nobel Prize, or lethal injection. A warning label should come with this book 'Do not drive, operate heavy machinery, read while pregnant, or in the workplace' I have been kicked out of a hospital and my breakroom ...

Mistborn

Brandon Sanderson

Tor Fantasy, 2008

Solid and interesting book
Mistborn is a solid fantasy book, which is a rare thing in a genre which has so many mediocre books. A standalone novel that starts a series, Mistborn tells of an interesting magic system, exciting action and strong narrative. A pleasant diversion for any fantasy fan.

The Hero of Ages (Mistborn, Book 3)

Brandon Sanderson

Tor Books, 2008

Didn't See THAT Coming!
This is good...Oh, this is REAL good! The Hero of Ages proves to be the perfect ending to one of the greatest fantasy series I have read. That's not to say that we get a fairy-tale ending; no... Characters die in this book, and some pretty fantastic problems arise. ...

The Final Empire (Mistborn, Book 1)

Brandon Sanderson

Tor Fantasy, 2007

Such Uniqueness!
In the fantasy field where uniqueness is rare, Mistborn is a trilogy where uniqueness is ubiquitous. There were moments of incredible intensity that made my heart pound twice as fast, and there were moments of sadness and melancholy that gave me tears. The ...

The Hope of Elantris

Brandon Sanderson

Amazon, 2007

It should have . . . .
This short piece or 'chapter', as it could have been, wonderfully explained how others had been dealing with the attack while Raoden was bringing the light back to Elantris. Now, this would have been a lot better if only it had been IN the book. I realize it had ...

Parks in Peril: People, Politics, and Protected Areas

Island Press, 1998

Using the experience of the Parks in Peril program-a wide-ranging project instituted by The Nature Conservancy and its partner organizations in Latin America and the Caribbean to foster better park management-this book presents a broad analysis of current trends in park management and the implications for biodiversity conservation. It examines the ...

The Well of Ascension: Book Two of Mistborn

Brandon Sanderson

Tor Fantasy, 2008

only gets better ...
One of the main things I dislike about fiction is that it is fiction! In the sense that authors tend to shy away from the grim reality of life and tend to find easy solutions to problems in their works of imagination. Not so with Brandon Sanderson who is one of the few ...

Elantris

Brandon Sanderson

Tor Fantasy, 2006

BRILLIANT
I rather enjoyed this book. I gave it 5 stars becuz' I felt that it was a masterminded story with immense mystery and intrigue. I was totally curious as to why Elantris had fallen and it keep me zipping through the pages....it seemed a touch slow here and there-But ...

The Well of Ascension (Mistborn, Book 2)
Brandon Sanderson

Tor Books, 2007

The Way of Kings

Brandon Sanderson

TOR, 2006

A Gargantuan Literary Achievement
Why are Sanderson's detractors so dismissive of this, the most gargantuan of literary achievements? Is it, perhaps, a sign of his greatness? After all, attacks on seminal artists who offer us a unique insight into the human condition whilst simultaneously re-defining ...
