Its spelt Tolkien... Why did you recommend this book?
Or are you referring to the Chinese fake Token, loves writing about Merdoor, Bibo Boggins, Gondaaf and a merriment of gnomes who follow Bibo all across half way world to kill an evil chinese dragon and later claim the one necklace to rule them all. Jk Jk. ;)
The books he writes build a world and culture. They cause you from the first line to become invested and wonder what and why.. The detail he can inject while not letting the story drag to do so is nothing short of art.
Sadly my time is getting short but I will say If the man was hired to finish Wheel of Time he can be trusted to at least try one of his short stories out :)

I love Sanderson, one of THE MOST prolific writters, and his various magical systems throughout his entire Cosmere multi series spanning universe of books.
Thanks for bringing his work and talent to others!
I keep staring at this book every time I go into Barnes and Noble, but the physical book is just too big for me to want to carry around. I eagerly await two days from today!
Tor Books in general publishes some pretty good stuff.

Whats happening two days from today? Its your birthday?
Oh as for the size of this authors books. I am a pretty busy guy, so end up listening to audio books while I am on my way to jobs at work. I've managed to get through many a Forgotten Realms novel at work alone. This author Brandon Sanderson can also be found on Audible.
"...Debts must always be paid, sometimes in more than blood and gold. But this is Ordo Ursa," Ren places his hand on Erakas's chest, right where the Dragonborn's heart is. "Right here. And it always has been and always will be. Don't ever forget that. Because I won't."

He most certainly is not the "Tolkien" of our generation. He's a decent writer who has some great ideas (especially for magic systems) but is clumsy with his implementation and world building at best. He also has a problem with conciseness of writing, people complain about the "and they walked" nature of Fellowship of the Ring but compared to just how much of a slog half of Words of Radiance is ...

Why do you suggest this book?
Hell yeah I am going to Polymorph the boss into a Rabbit. I have always wanted a being a pure evil stuffed into a ball of fluff.

Shame, shame for you forgetful few. It's a really good book thus far!
