I can guarentee a good time with the first Mistborn book. Never read anything else in your purchase, but I've heard nothing but praise for Stormlight.

My first impression of Sanderson was negative. I was a Wheel of Time fan and I found the author switch to be extremely jarring. Honestly I'm not really sure why, it's not like I even loved RJ's writing really. His many little writing tics kinda irritated me, and I burned out in my first readthrough on the boring stuff in the latter books. But the little subtle differences in writing style and character behavior just took me out of the story and were like an itch under my skin. I'm now on my second readthrough of his WoT books, and it's not bothering me so much anymore. Maybe it's just easier to distance myself from it now idk. But I'm of course aware of how unfair it is to judge him for coming into an impossible situation like that and not being someone else. I'm curious to see him in his own world with his own characters.
