Good evening, and welcome to Geekerati. You’re online with Christian Lindke, Eric Leidel, and our special guest this evening, Brandon Sanderson. Brandon Sanderson is a fantasy author who exploded onto the fantasy/science fiction scene in 2005 with his novel Elantris . He’s followed it up with a trilogy of Mistborn novels, a mid-grade youth fiction series based on a character called Alcatraz; the first book in that series is called Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians , and an online writing-experiment-turned-published-novel called Warbreaker , in addition to being selected to work on the Wheel of Time series, Robert Jordan’s big epic fantasy series.

Good evening, Brandon. And welcome to Geekerati.
