Brotherwise brought lots to show off at Nexus this year, including previews for next year's Mistborn RPG supplements, a Mistborn Handbook, a Scadrial World Guide, the Mistborn: Legacy adventure, and other games set in the Cosmere.
However you celebrate the season, we at Dragonsteel wish you happy holidays! We’ve tuned in to some familiar faces here to see what they are most looking forward to during the holiday break, getting a peek at their favorite holiday movies, traditions, and treats.
BRANDON: Why should you read the Wheel of Time? Well, the Wheel of Time is excellently written. Robert Jordan’s mastery of prose is unparalleled in writing. I think he’s one of the best with viewpoint and with just descriptions that we have.The Wheel of Time feels kind of luxurious in its writing compared to a lot of contemporary sci-fi/fantasy. There’s just a feel to them that I really like that you might enjoy as well.
Dinniman presented on the last day of Nexus, a raucous celebration of Carl and Donut’s adventures and the very last panel of the convention. Maude Garrett hosted and drew together an onslaught of content and questions for Matt to confront. Matt brought backup, though. The audiobook narrator with a thousand voices, Jeff Hays, joined him on stage.
Brandon Sanderson, Pierce Brown, Tomi Adeyemi, and Matt Dinniman predict trends, banish tropes, and debate bringing Death Notes to life at Dragonsteel Nexus.
Elantris holds a special place in my fantasy pantheon. My affection for its characters and its world has only deepened as I’ve grown more immersed in the Cosmere they launched.
