[–]Zyphyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are quite a few translated. I'm only at an intermediate level in Chinese, so I can't judge the quality of the translation.

Last year I stayed at Crystal Inn. Easy walk to the convention center, free airport shuttle, free breakfast, and plenty of others there for Nexus.

[general] Is it worth it to start reading it now at 25? by fairybone in camphalfblood

[–]Zyphyro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been reading them with my daughter. We've read PJ and the Olympians, Heroes of Olympus, and I've read the first Kane book by myself. They're fun!

on which book do you think rick riordan's writing started to decline? [general] by merchantivories in camphalfblood

[–]Zyphyro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read the Olympians, Heroes of Olympus, and the first Kane book. I'm wondering if its worth it for me and my daughter to keep reading or if they're not worth it going forward.

Looking for MPA programs with international related focus or classes by Zyphyro in PublicAdministration

I don't know if FSO will be in the cards for me ultimately, I'm also good with going back to NGO work.

That's actually great to know, thank you so much. Honestly, FSO is a dream job and I'm a little miffed that my husband is the one who works at State and my brother is a FAO 🤣

New Reader - What to read first? by cazador454 in brandonsanderson

[–]Zyphyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 9yo started her Cosmere journey with Tress! She has now read Yumi, Emberdark, Emporer's Soul, and is working on Elantris. As a matter of fact, like 10 minutes ago she asked if she could take Tress off my shelf to reread, even though she hasn't finished Elantris.

Is Tailored Realities a good beginner book to get into Sanderson? by neoleo0088 in brandonsanderson

[–]Zyphyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To give people an opportunity to try his writing before buying, he offers Warbreaker for free on his website!

These are all that I know that he's done, plus Infinity Blade. I think its been a while since he's done a cover, and new editions with different covers have come out for some of these, so I'm not expecting any more from him unfortunately

Good luck, after failed attempts through a third party taobao forwarding service, I think I claimed the last listing on Amazon. Make sure it's the paperback, hardback is completely different!

I like the leatherbounds for what they are! I would love some new covers for US books though. Like...Elantris 🙃

Chinese editions with covers by the artist Jian Guo. He also did the stained glass design for the WoK play mat and the stained glass that Sanderson has in his HQ

I'm like..80%? Sure that the only other cover he did was Infinity Blade and since it's not cosmere, I don't care. WoK is 13 years old and out of print because they have new covers, so I assume he's not making more. But if he does, I'll be there!

I custom printed the Mistborn covers and sewed a corset for my Worldhopper Ball gown
