Necessary Eagle Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 I recently bought The Final Empire (I've owned the other two for ages), and had myself a long-overdue Era 1 reread; I've been on a bit of a Scadrial kick ever since. Next up for a reread was Wax and Wayne. I don't personally own any of them; I think I've read The Alloy of the Law twice and the other two only once. Well my copy of The Alloy of the Law has arrived from the library, and I've made a horrible discovery. Everything I've loved is a lie. There is no second "the" in the title. Huge letters, filling the width of the cover. The Alloy Of Law. Four words. No matter how many time I check, it remains the same. The. Alloy. Of. Law. Now, either I've been remembering the name wrong all these years, despite seeing it written down again and again, or there's a malevolent cosmic entity of destruction editing Brandon's work, as part of an evil scheme against either Sanderson or prepositions, or both. Occam's Razor, of course, suggests the latter. Well, I'm on to Him. Can't fool me, you deific chill. PS. The "Berenstain" Bears? That's Ruin's fault, too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't want you to spread the information that he had an evil scheme against articles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
