I'd never heard of Sanderson until the Wot news. I've read all his stuff. All three of my daughters (15, 13, 11) (and me too) have enjoyed his Alcatraz series. Choosing/changing talents is a common topic of conversation.....

My oldest (15) has read and is anxiously waiting for the next Rothfuss novel.

None of my kids have been able to stick through WoT.
