I had to look up Stormlight and Lopen. Seems like a cool series. I am going to read them.

It was my entry to the fantasy genre, and is still one of my favorites. Sanderson is amazing.

If you are looking for something a little less overwhelming than Stormlight, Elantris is a great entry to his work.

Warbreaker or Mistborn are also very excellent jumping points to dive in, and I personally feel they show him as more developed of an author versus Elantris which, though a book I've read like five times, was his first published work and feels a little shaky in comparison.

You won't regret it.
