It is very rare to see that fans have dubbed something, so knowing that fans have dubbed it “The Sanderlanche” is giving it a feeling that this author and his books must be too good and worth checking it out. Anyway, thank you very much for a detailed answer.
He engages with his fan base a lot. So yeah, there are lots of jokes and things like that. It's fun to get involved with everything, but you don't need to in order to just enjoy his books.
By the way, most people suggest starting with the Mistborn series. "The Final Empire" is the first book, and it's really fun. A good introduction to Sanderson. They're still big books, but not quite the commitment of "The Way of Kings," which is the first Stormlight book. Whatever you start with, I hope you enjoy it!!
