Looks like "The Stormlight Archive" will be "fast tracked" to the big screen

It's on book 2 of 10. So... that will be interesting.

Looks like they'll be doing mistborn right away as well.

Mistborn will make for the best movies IMO.

Stormlight does give kind of a different colour to fantasy, doesn't it?

Warbreaker could be a good movie as well.

The book was rubbish, but am excited to see it in the theatre on the fortnight

And in that same blog entry, he said Stormlight would be his main writing focus. Clearly it hasn't been.
SpiffCoug

Lies of Locke Lamora is among best I've read. VERY entertaining.

He's comparable, I suppose, to Orson Scott Card

Robert Jordan, Brent Weeks and Michael Sullivan are pretty similar.

These things happen a lot, but not always do they become Big Screen movies.
