Quiver Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 Well, I guess I was away long enough I need to reintroduce myself, huh? Hi there. I'm Quiver, and I'm back. Long-term Brandon Sanderson fan, starting with the Mistborn series; Vin really struck a chord with me as a character I could see myself in, and I ended up reading the rest of the Cosmere pretty quickly after that. As someone who wants to be a writer, I'm always impressed and amazed by Brandon's worldbuildng. Also jealous. The jealous is very important. Anyway, between one thing and another, I feel off the grid for a while but.... guess I'm back? So, hope to see you guys around. (Warbreaker is still best Cosmere) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was absolutely intentional, and I'm not trying to deflect from a mistake now by saying that my plan all along. Certainly not. 34 minutes ago, Slowswift said: Yay Quiver!

So, back when I joined, everyone's favourite book was either Mistborn or Stormlight Archive, so I am very defensive over Warbreaker being the best cosmere. Which it is. The magic system is interesting, but it's the world and the tone of the novel itself that I really love. I've argued for a long time that Warbreaker reads like Brandond's riff on old pulp novels, due to the way he either re-uses concepts from them - Nightblood being the Cosmere equivalent of Stormbringer - or the way he has characters weaponize the troeps and expectations of that style of story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
