I suspect someone could later write an academic paper on the Mormon influences on his writing

I read somewhere that Sanderson has some kind of meta-theme. Like, every book he does (excluding WoT) has the same god, or same fundamental power source, or SOMETHING.
Is this ringing any bells? And where did you find this out?

Based on the bits and pieces I've read here and elsewhere, there do seem to be a few plausible parallels there in terms of a tripartite "realm" system, the nature of God, and so forth. But that could also be facile interpretations that could be shot down as well. But it certainly is interesting to a degree. Now if only the writer can develop his writing to the point of making these disparate elements seem even more intriguing than they already are, that's the trick.

I've always found is take on religions interesting. The books are kinda cynical (no spoilers)
