Has anyone else read this books? It is not Sandersons best, but I did enjoy the meta, the running commentary in the "background" and the comments about what writers should never do etc :look:

I plan on getting the first three for my brother in about a month for his birthday. I may have an ulterior motive in this gift choice however :look:

Hes been re-releasing them this year so make sure you get the latest versions with new illustrations, not sure if the content has been re-written at all.

First 3 have been re-done and book 4 will be out a bit later this year before the final book is out.

Not read them yet waiting for the final book first.

I have read them, but on my Kindle, which means any illustrations and stuff is missing :look:

Yes, the reissue blog is what gave me the idea of them as a gift. I like the sound of new covers and illustrations :)

I've read them, I like them a lot. I'm getting them for my kiddo for Christmas - he's read them also, but not for a good long while!

I just finished reading the first book yesterday. It was good, but I think I enjoyed the smart-alecky comments at the beginning of chapters to the actual story :laugh:

I realy loved the first two books. (Two? Three? - I'm not sure... too long ago...)
I read them in german, and after that 'Heyne Verlag' stopped publishing them.
I heard there had been some problems about the cover and much discussion.

As of many 'cool' language twists in this book I didn't wan't to switch to english. I'm still a little bit sad, that they have stopped translating them to german.
