We're continuing our look into the space age cosmere and what that would look like! We talk about Roshar and Scadrial, other groups and factions, and the Shards. 

This week on SpanReads, we discuss the magic of Words of Radiance, because the world is opening up quickly!

This week on SpanReads, it's time for the characters and character arcs of Words of Radiance!

After weeks of teasing us with very, very pixellated covers, Tor has finally revealed the full cover for book 5 of the Stormlight Archive.

Evgeni (Argent) is joined by Marie Seeberger (LaMaery) to discuss what it's like to be an official artist on the Cosmere RPG. Besides showing off her gorgeous art, she talks about her process and all the thought that goes into building out the world of Roshar visually!

Today, we're looking forward. Faaarr forward, into the future of the cosmere. The first of a two-part conversation diving in on the late-era Cosmere works, looking at technology, who's who in these late game stages, and how all these complicated Shards, planets, and factions are interacting with each other.

This week on SpanReads, we are onto Words of Radiance, the best Stormlight book, perhaps? Either way, it's pretty stellar!

It's time for our full cosmere episode on The Way of Kings, where we can not only talk about later in the series, but also other books too! This episode has spoilers up through Rhythm of War.

In this very special episode, we're joined by Johnny O'Neal of Brotherwise Games to talk about the new Cosmere RPG and its Kickstarter campaign. We also get a first look at some incredible art for the game, so be sure to check out the video for this episode if you're an audio only listener!

Brandon does it again - the Kickstarter campaign for the not-just-Stormlight Roleplaying Game is live, and already funded.

This week on SpanReads, we are discussing all the characters of The Way of Kings, and since it is Stormlight, there are just a few to discuss. 

It's been over THREE YEARS since we did the last dedicated Who's That Cosmere Character episode, so it's finally time for Ben to torture us once again with what you all sent in. 

One of the most common questions we see prior to every Stormlight Archive release is a request for good recaps of the previous books. Well, you've found the right place! This series of four articles will serve as a brief but thorough overview of the previous Stormlight Archive books, so you can pick right up where you left off when Wind and Truth brings an end to the First Arc of Stormlight Archive when it releases this year!

This is the fourth article in the series. If you haven't read the first, make sure to start there.

It's our full cosmere spoiler episode for Warbreaker! Turns out it's a pretty important book.

Eastern Time, beginning on July 29th and continuing until the book comes out on December 6th! They'll go up under the dedicated column on Reactor's website weekly.

This week on SpanReads, we are discussing the colorful magic of Warbreaker!

Next up on SpanReads, we talk about the many characters of Warbreaker, like Lightsong, Siri, Vivenna, and Vasher!

With Lost Metal closing out Mistborn Era 2, and us now knowing Era 3 is called Ghostbloods, let's talk about what we know about Mistborn: Ghostbloods. Brandon's talked about it a lot over the years. We talk about that and our hopes for the series, along with many, many cold wars. And Discord, of course.

SpanReads, our reread series, returns! We are starting with Warbreaker, and then moving through Stormlight until Wind and Truth comes out! So what did we think of Warbreaker on a reread? Stay tuned to find out! 

In April, Brandon read the first two Shallan chapters from Wind and Truth at C2E2, and hoooo boy they are exciting! We discuss those and the C2E2 Words of Brandon, meaning we are finally caught up on WoBs--for now!
