bramermatt Posted May 17, 2022 Report Share Posted May 17, 2022 Hi all! My name is Matthew Bramer! I'm pretty well brand new to Brandon's writings. I just finished The Way of Kings yesterday! It was absolutely incredible! That was my first ever Brandon book, and today, I'm starting Elantris! Before starting reading Brandon, I read Harry Potter 1, The Eye of the World (WoT 1), The Hobbit, Star Wars Aftermath, Dune, 1984, and The Silent Patient. I haven't been reading any books since middle school. Other than, I read the entire Holy Bible last year (took me 248 days). I am a devote Christian, as is my wife. I took it upon myself to read through the entire Bible and it was amazing. Somehow I stumbled upon BookTube and fell in love with reading. I had heard of Brandon before his Secret Project debut, but I had the Way of Kings on my list to read for this year, but it massively got bumped up! A little about myself, I am 25, I am married to my wife Sandy (this year we celebrate our 4 year wedding anniversary!). We have a son, Everett who just turned two years old! We have a shihitzu who just turned four years old. I am in school for Computer Science with a focus in Software Engineering and I hope to become a Software Engineering within a few years! I currently work as Tier 1 Help Desk Technician. Hope to meet you all soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormingTexan he/him Posted May 17, 2022 Report Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) Welcome! I kind of envy you getting to read Brandon's books for the first time. Do you have the Mistborn series on your to-read list? To get the most out of the next Stormlight books I'd recommend reading Mistborn and Warbreaker. Not absolutely necessary but there is some fun stuff specifically in the 3rd and 4th Stormlight books that will benefit from reading those other books first. Also be careful of the forums lots of spoilers for those here Edited May 17, 2022 by StormingTexan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
