+1 Defense to Sanderson's Shardplate


ShardGuard

Recommended Posts

Hello!

Happy to call myself a Worldhopper!

I'm ashamed, however, to say that I've known of 17th Shard for almost as long as I've known of Sanderson's existence, and only just joined. Now, before you cast me to the Pits of Hathsin, I had only read the first Mistborn book from the first era and was afraid of being spoiled of things I knew nothing about. I took a few quick glances here and there on the site and read several things that almost instantaneously shattered my Shardblade on contact. My reasoning for staying away at the time was undeniable. 

But, I'm excited to be here, and I'm just going to do my best to remain unspoiled until I finish absorbing his work.

So far, I've read the original Mistborn trilogy, The Way of Kings, Steelheart, Firefight and Children of the Nameless. I own several more books than this, but I was trying to pace myself through them so that I don't run out. I think I'm leaning towards casting that notion to the winds of a Highstorm and doing the exact opposite - volunteering for the front of a bridge carry.

I should be fine. I know of at least one other who has done it and survived...

Welcome to the Shard! Don't accept any baked goods while you're here, they do bad things to your soul. Hope you enjoy your time here!

Much appreciated! 

That advice seems very sound. I'll avoid them for sure.
