[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son liked a series of his books when he was 12-14 yrs old. I think that's his target audience, YA. But a friend of mine who is also a successful YA writer pointed out that a lot of Brandon Sanderson's stuff is heavily influenced by Christianity. Is this something you've noticed?[/quote] I don't think he's overly LDS in his writing. There are some themes, but he has multiple fully fleshed out belief systems operating at the same time in a lot of his books and he never seems to imply one is right or better. Where is does come through is that even his adult books don't have graphic sex scenes or language that you would be uncomfortable with a kid reading. [/quote] I was raised Mormon and I’m actually surprised about the way he deviates from Mormon theology. And the way he talks about religion seems to undermine the concept of organized religious institutions as a whole. [/quote]
