      I got a Question. What are some really good examples of a High Fantasy series that has these qualities?:
      -A fantasy world that is its own mythology
      -Epic fight scenes and wars
      -Intense magic battles
      -A hugely expanded magic system
      -The archetypical hero’s journey
      -Dragons, Unicorns, Griffins, Sea Monsters, Phoenixes, and other known mythical beasts
      -Stunningly beautiful and smart female characters and love interests
      -Romantic story arcs that involve love and sex
      -Conflicts involving politics(primarily conservative themes that are more positive than negative)
      -Themes and elements and faith and religion(with not a single hint of atheism or agnosticism)
      -Spiritual and psychological themes
      -Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Ghouls, Vampires, Merfolk, Fairies, Centaurs, and other non-human races
      -Different languages that are spoken by non-human languages(and that the readers can learn and speak)
      -A feared and all-powerful dark lord who is after the main hero
      -the archetypal wise wizard
      -a community of wizards and sorceresses
      -Dark themes of tragedy, corruption, betrayal, and genocide
      -A tone that turns into being dark and gritty while always being mature from the start
      -Characters that are realistic and relatable in personality
      -Light and positive themes of faith, love, friendship, loyalty, honor, sacrifice and optimism

    Man I feel some validation hearing that Sanderson wanted to approach TSA from a Sci-Fantasy kind of direction. Reading Way of Kings and Radiance I thought I was going a little crazy reading about the shardplate, because I expected at any moment for someone to be like "My lord, we have unearthed a gigantic building in the plains!" but its not a 'building,' just a huge, 'beached,' spaceship. Then I learned about the Cosmere and things made a little more sense.

    For Daniel - you did a slick job of editing for this from a technical and content perspective both. Thank you from the bottom of my (and everyone on headphones) heart for quick audio fades (not one deafening POP the whole time!), and you trimmed the 'dead air' from you and Brandon both really nicely to keep this moving. Nicely done man :)

    You can honestly tell how smart a person Sanderson is, and how passionate he is with the community. He is probably my favorite fantasy author of all time and he deserves it.
    Also, as of writing this comment I’m about halfway through Oathbringer and it’s so good.
