And the first book of _Mistborn_.

I thought he did as good a job as could be done on wrapping up the Wheel of Time, so decided to look at his own things.

One premise of _Elantris_--the non-fading pain--is as horrifying a thought as I've run into, although the story itself was just okay.

On-topic: Generally, I only read the novels these days. John Scalzi, Kim Stanley Robinson and Lois McMaster Bujold certainly are regulars for contenders, but I'll have to look up the other two.

Best SF ever written was in paperbacks and pulp magazines of the 1950's. IMO. Northerner Sep 2013 #3
