He is not a hobbit, neither a man, but what is he? Is he a dwarf? A wizard? A god? Something else entirely?

      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.

        Title is great, but I didn’t read that one yet because there’s no Hoid in there. I want to complete the Cosmere reread first.

        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?
