You are not reading enough fantasy books, then.

That’s because the old Something Awful forums ruined fantasy books back for me in the early 2000’s when the big series was ASOIAF. Going from GRRM to Sanderson, Hobbs, Abercrombie etc… just doesn’t hit the same. It’s like going from crack to whippets.

Nah let's have a space dogfight about it. I'll pilot one of Sanderson's many awesome spaceships, and you pilot something Martin wrote.
