He'll get to a point of realizing he needs to prioritize if he truly wants to

finish off his epic. You don't write as fast when you're 50 as you do when you're 30 and he keeps starting more series and leaving them unfinished. I LOVE Sanderson, but have this increasing worry we're going to be left with a lot of loose ends. Oh well! Enjoy the ride I suppose.

After you read all the Sanderson books read the kingkiller chronicles by Rothfuss.

Ugh, another series that will never finish

If you are only interested in a finished series then The Magicians by Lev Grossman is good as is The Dark Tower series

Do this^^^^if you enjoy starting a series that you will never be able to finish

I assume you mean rothfuss's chronicles, Sanderson will finish his series

Rothfuss has 1 more book left to finish his series and Sanderson has like 10

brandon has 7 left after this year, and he is actually actively writing

Actively writing my foot! I've been waiting years for book three to hit! And have you seen the guy? He's primed for a

I've never heard of an author that turns work out as fast as Sanderson. Book three is set for November of this year.

Sanderson is very prolific. He has many projects,

Sanderson is currently 68% done w/ the 3rd draft of "Oathbringer" (Stormlight 3). It should be out this fall

Sanderson is on the wrong side of 40, writing one of those every 3 years because

maybe. but how many authors can pump out a book as long as a stormlight

That's the point. He won't finish it before he dies.

Dangerzone

I do worry about that. Not sure he can realistically work faster, though.

BlueBlood

2/20/17 9:13pm

I don't believe he can work faster. He just has more irons in the fire than any

Sanderson is 41. A book every three years puts him at 62 when it's done. Even adding a 4th year for every 3 books

Rothfuss is like Tolkien, it may be twenty years before he gets the next one

I'd take a semi finished Sanderson series over another Kingkiller Chronicle.

Here are some of my favorite books or series of the last decade or so.

One of the most fun series I've read is the Galactic Football League series by Scott Sigler. Sounds corny, I know, but

The Wright Brothers is the best book I've read in years.
