So, Hoid of a sort
Thank you for indirectly leading me to discover the book title "The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England". Even if I never work my way to finding out anything further about this corner of literature, that title certainly tickled me.
It's a really fun read. Sanderson gets some hate from literary snobs for his simple writing style but sometimes that's the style of story you need.
He has a simple writing style? I tried reading his books a long time ago and found them overly wordy. Has he adapted?
