Left Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Words of Brandon. WoB's are answers to questions that Brandon has given. There are also WoP's, Words of Peter, which are much much rarer, but still very valuable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 It's derived from the more generic term 'Word of God', but yeah, Word of Brandon is just a direct quote from Brandon explaining some aspect of the cosmere or one of his other works.Most can be found on Theoryland if you're interested in perusing them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormgate Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 While I was watching Star Wars VII with warriormark, who had seen it before, I asked him a question about one of the characters. He told me WAFO. (Watch and find out) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alomantisist Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 There is also WoK, WoR, WoA, HoA, AoL, subsequent translations being: "Way of Kings" "Words of Radiance" (the first two installments of the Stormlight archive) "the Well of Ascension" "the Hero of Ages" and last but not least "the Alloy of Law". I'm sure that more abbreviations will be used in future, but for now these are the ones that I have seen used. I'm not making any of these up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if we're adding book abbreviations then M:SH, BoM and SoS (Mistborn: Secret History, Bands of Mourning and Shadows of Self respectively) Should be mentioned from Mistborn, I've very occasionally seen someone abbreviate Warbreaker to WB and Shadows for Silence in the forests of Hell is usually shortened to Shadows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
