  1. It's the last SpanReads for the 2023, our last Cytoverse SpanReads, and Defiant is just days away! Last up we are talking about lore in Cytonic, and oh boy there's a lot to discuss! As always for our Skywards Spanreads, we have Mi'chelle (firstRainbowRose), Jessie (Lady Lameness), Ian (Weiry), and Eric (Chaos). Defiant comes out on November 21st! Stay tuned for our Defiant Reactions Shardcast later. Thumbnail is the French cover of Cytonic, by Alain Brion.

  2. Hello, one and all! Welcome to the signups for the Cytoverse Hunger Games! Please read this whole post if you’re interested in participating, I know it’s long but it’s all important information. First, here is your character sheet: Next, we have the fun little blip of Ookla season coming up! If you’re planning on participating, please let us know what your username will be, because these games are incredibly hard to run when we don’t know who’s who Now…plot. The whole idea for the hunger games is that everyone dies. That’s the way these RP’s work. But, since we the GM’s want to have fun too, that means we’ll be doing our own plot. We’ll try hard not to take over the entire thread (I know there was a lot going on with the GM’s in the last games especially) but if you guys aren’t killing each other, we’ll get bored. Just a heads up. Conflict is crucial for these games to work. If every character decides to run away and hide in a tree, this won’t be fun for anyone. So…fight, and accept that you will probably die! It makes the games fun. That being said, the GM’s aren’t the only ones allowed to fall in love, be monsters, have lives and emotions and plot. We do, however, plan some things out. So if you’re interested in being more than just a tribute, please PM us! We’re more than happy to let you figure out plot with other characters and maybe the GM’s as long as you let us know. There must be an order to the chaos if we want to enjoy it We also have the issue of activity. These games are almost notorious for moving really fast, and we get that it can be really, really hard to keep up with them while life is happening. That’s fine, just…be mindful of it. With this games, if you’d like an alliance you can form it among yourselves on this thread (or another that I’ll explain in a minute). We’ve previously had issues where people can’t do anything because people they’re allied with are inactive, so if you won’t be able to check the thread more than once or twice a day, be careful with interactions. (Again, none of this is rules or saying you can’t, it’s just more convenient for others) So, that other thread I mentioned! Signups are exactly a week, you have until next Sunday, and during that week we decided to try a sort of…pre-rp. We’ll see how it goes. This games is interesting because since it’s cytoverse, you can be anyone and anything from anywhere. So if you want to, you can put your character into the DDF, Starsight, or anywhere else for a week. This isn’t required, and is just a fun thought so that your characters can have backstory before we plop them into the games. @SmilingPanda19 will be making that thread later today for anyone who’s interested, but again, you don’t need to do that in order to play the games. These games are cytoverse in celebration of Defiant, which comes out November 21st. Any new information released there won’t be included for these games, since a lot of people can’t read it for a while after it comes out. Last, I just want to quickly mention etiquette. The GM’s are just people who want to have a good time. The magic won’t be perfectly aligned with canon, and this won’t be perfect in any form of the word. If you look for flaws, then stars above you will find them. You won’t have fun, though. EDIT: here is what the coppermind has on powers 3.1Sense 3.2FTL Communication 3.3Mind Speed Acceleration 3.4Mindblades 3.5Concussion Bolts 3.6FTL Travel 3.7Mind Swap 3.8Cytonic Suppression 3.9Trans-cytonic processing 3.10Illusions And…I think that’s all! Any questions, comments, concerns, or emotional outbursts can be answered by your GM’s: @The Wandering Wizard @Ancient Elantrian @SmilingPanda19 @Edema Rue @Thaidakar the Ghostblood @shortcake Happy hunger games, my friends!! @The stormfather @Ravenclawjedi42 @TheRavenHasLanded @Aeoryi @Lightweaver2 @Lord Spirit @Silver Phantom @Argenti @Master if Magic @Scars of Hathsin @DefiantAllomancer @Experience @SymphonianBookworm @Kajsa :) @Wittles of Shinovar @The Honorable One @Canada Lover @Justice_Magician @[Redacted] @Lotus Blossom @ΨιτιsτηεΒέsτ (sorry, I know this isn’t everyone who’s interested, these are just people who participated in the last games)

  10. SpanReads, our reread show, returns! For 2023, in anticipation for Defiant's release, we are doing the Skyward series! We're doing three episodes on each book, and this one is Reactions & Retrospectives. Importantly, unlike our cosmere SpanReads, we need to compare with the rest of the series, so this does have full Skyward series spoilers, excluding Defiant, of course, because it isn't out yet. So, what did we think of Skyward on a reread? Stay tuned to find out. For this book, we have Mi'chelle (firstRainbowRose), Jessie (Lady Lameness), Ian (Weiry), and Eric (Chaos). Need a recap? Jessie has you covered, and her own channel, she did a full recap for Skyward: https://youtu.be/vfGZwEgoX9A SpanReads will come out weekly until Defiant comes out. Skyward episodes air August 31st to September 14th, Starsight from September 21st to October 5th, Skyward Flight from October 12th to October 26th, Cytonic from November 2nd to November 16th, and then Defiant comes out the week after!

  11. SPOILERS for Skyward, Reckoners, and Frugal Wizard Brandon has said it’s arguably the case that The Reckoners is in the same fictional world as Skyward. Obviously, since each world has a dimensional multiverse, they could just be in the same multiverse, but maybe it’s more than that: Perhaps in Skyward the humans’ ancestors left earth centuries after the events in The Reckoners occurred. And maybe Calamity was a delver. Unless I’m forgetting something, and I may well be, I see no reason Frugal Wizard couldn’t have happened in the same world as both, after The Reckoners and before humanity left Earth for the stars and Skyward happened. This would require that Epics ceased to exist. Easily possible if we assume Calamity made Mizzy an Epic just before he left. It could be that no one becomes an Epic after Calamity leaves. I admit this possibility is weakened by the remark in Frugal Wizard that Runian had found the only known world to contain anything like magic, but I don’t think that completely refutes the possibility. The definition of magic might be a little subjective. Personally, I’d rather think there continue to be new Epics indefinitely than believe the three series share a universe. Either way, though, they could share a multiverse. What do you think?
  12. On today's news roundup, do you like covers? There are tons of new covers, for Skyward, Mistborn's rerelease, and the Tor edition of Tress. Let's start with Skyward news! Hot off the press, we have a cover reveal for Defiant, the fourth Skyward book, which comes out November 21st, 2023. Cover by Charlie Bowater. What do you all think? Of the US Skyward covers, I think it's probably my favorite. We also have the synopsis: Skyward Legacy If you hadn't heard, Janci Patterson is writing a sequel trilogy for Skyward, which is set after the main Skyward series. We don't have details on release dates, as it's early in the process, but this month, Skyward Legacy Book One has appeared on Brandon's progress bars. It is currently at 4%. Mistborn News: New Editions and Ebooks Getting Leatherbound Changes We haven't reported on this yet, but the original Mistborn trilogy is getting a rerelease in the US as trade paperbacks. The Final Empire and The Well of Ascension were released February 14th, and The Hero of Ages will release on March 14th. These new covers are, without a doubt, my favorite US Mistborn covers: Covers by Danny Schiltz. The Mistborn leatherbounds had a lot of minor wording changes and continuity stuff, and those are the definitive editions. The Tor mass market paperbacks that were last rereleased in 2019 had those changes, but the ebooks were never updated. Fortunately, with the release of these new Mistborn trade paperbacks, the ebooks are now finally getting the updated text of the books! Yay! The ebooks are getting updated with the new covers, too. Hero of Ages' isn't updated yet, but presumably it will when that trade paperback comes out March 14th. We don't have the covers for them, but it seems that all of Era 2 is getting covers in these styles as well. According to Amazon and Coho Books, The Alloy of Law releases July 4th, Shadows of Self on August 1st, The Bands of Mourning on September 5th, and The Lost Metal on October 10th. Additionally, a trade paperback box set of Era 1 arrives April 11th, and I'd expect a similar box for Era 2 this year as well. Tor Tress Edition Cover Lastly, we got a cover reveal this month for Tor's version of Tress of the Emerald Sea, which comes out April 4th. (Uh, hopefully Kickstarter backers all get their physical editions by then.) Here it is! Cover by Carlos Guimerà. That's all for now! What do you all think of these covers, and the Defiant blurb?

    I wanted to use my collection of graphite pencils, so this happened! It's based off of the cover art from Skyward, so that's why it might look familiar
  15. I'm just confused about stuff. 1). Does Cytonics exist in everyone or select few 2). How does one use Cytonics 3). What can you do with Cytonics
  16. Which of the main series and novellas is your favorite? How many people agree? Take the poll and find out! Edit: haha, sorry about the typos…
  17. What is your favorite moment in the Skyward series so far?

  20. Publisher's Weekly has revealed the cover for Bastille vs. The Evil Librarians, the final entry in Brandon's Alcatraz series! Bastille is cowritten with Janci Patterson, co-author of the Skyward Flight novellas, and is due to release September 20th. Additionally, the print collection of said novellas is out, and Brandon and Janci shared a bit about what Skyward will look like going forwards. Additionally, their article contains release dates for the new editions of the previous books in the series, which are receiving new covers by Justin Gerard to celebrate Bastille finally coming out. (In case you missed it, the new cover for the first book in the series was revealed back in December!) May 3: Alcatraz vs. The Evil Librarians July 5: The Scrivener’s Bones and The Knights of Crystallia August 20: The Shattered Lens September 20: The Dark Talent and Bastille And now, we venture skyward! Specifically the Skyward Flight collection released this week! If you've been waiting to buy these in print, you can find links to do so on Penguin Random House's website. It also includes a few sweeteners like character art and deleted scenes. Unfortunately, Skyward beta reader and Janci's friend Darci Cole was originally supposed to help write the next trilogy, but had to step down from the project for personal reasons. Janci and Brandon will both continue to be involved with it, however. Oh, did I not mention the next trilogy yet? Well, on the most recent stream, Janci and Brandon spoke about the plan for the future of the Cytoverse after Defiant (the fourth Skyward novel) releases next year. The current goal is to co-write a second trilogy following characters we already know (they can't confirm which, though we know from the Mini-Con that Kimmalyn is likely in the running). They intend for the books to be dual PoV, with one primary character getting major viewpoints in all of them, and a different second character getting their own plot and main viewpoints each time. However, this is subject to change, as they are still early in the outlining phase. Oh, and of course, we have progress bar updates from the latest Weekly Update video! The first draft of Stormlight Five is about 6% completed, which is about on-track for where Brandon expected it to be. The third draft (which takes into account beta reader feedback) of Secret Project 1 is about 80% completed, meaning prep work for publishing it next January can soon begin. Speaking of the Secret Projects, the Kickstarter raised $41,754,153 from 185,341 backers, easily taking the crown for most-funded Kickstarter with more than double the second place. (However, Exploding Kittens still has it, and every other project, handily beat for the most-backed position, with 219,382 backers.) Who do you think the next Skyward series's viewpoint characters will be? Why are there sharks in the sky on the Bastille cover? Is it just me, or does that airship look like Darth Vader? Find out... uh... whenever the books release, I suppose, but until then, share your guesses in the comments below!
  21. You've been waiting for a physical editions for the three Skyward Flight novellas that came out late last year, and today Skyward Flight: The Collection is out! You can get a hardcover or an ebook with all three of the novellas: Sunreach, ReDawn, and Evershore. The hardcover is just $20 on Amazon (and about the same price on Barnes and Noble), with the ebook at $12. You can also get a signed hardcover off Brandon's store, or get the Gollancz paperback off Book Depository. We found the Skyward Flight novellas to be a fantastic trilogy of stories, and an important part of the Skyward series. Janci Patterson co-wrote these with Brandon, and we felt she did an excellent job. These fill a big hole in the mainline novels, and if you like Skyward, absolutely pick these up. I liked this more than Cytonic too! ReDawn and Evershore are just incredible. I think it is best to read all these either before Cytonic, or directly after Cytonic. So really, at $12 or $20 dollars, you can't go wrong, especially because these three together are longer than any individual Skyward book! Lastly, Janci Patterson will be on a stream on Brandon's YouTube channel tonight, at the usual stream time 6pm Mountain time (5pm Pacific / 8pm Eastern), which will go for two hours. You can put questions for the stream in this Reddit thread!
  22. Sanderson fans, especially Skyward fans! I just submitted a Lego Ideas set featuring the DDF Poco from Skyward, based on the artwork by Ben McSweeney.

  24. I have been thinking for some time now that Reconers seems like practice for era 3 Mistborn or modern Mistborn, and with the skyward series if that is practice for space age cosmere books. Rhythmatist also seems to be practice for era 3 Mistborn stories. From what I have heard era 3 Mistborn sounds like it will be a world with Superheros similar to Reconers and of Course Space travel in Space age Cosmere and Skyward seem way to on the nose. What do y'all think? Oh and I am more excited for Era 3 Mistborn than any more Stormlight books which, even though I enjoy virtually all his stories, far out weigh the non cosmere off shoots for me.
