AirsickHighlander Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 I've been lurking here for about a year now, but avoiding most threads because my cosmere knowledge was incomplete and I was concerned about spoilers. Thankfully, my Arcanum Unbounded read butted up right against Dawnshard and Rhythm of War, so now I'm as realmatically aware as I'm gonna get (although I am currently skimming WoKPrime, and then I want to check out the prose version of White Sand), so I'm here to join in the discussion! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal Khol Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 (edited) Welcome to the Shard!!!(love your name btw) whats your favorite Novel and character? also, if your going through the Unpublished works. You should head over and request Aether of Night. It’s an unpublished “early cosmere”(my words) novel that brandon wrote in the early 2000’s Brandon does plan, in the future, to include Aethers(the magic of the book) into the published Cosmere if he gets the chance(he had 3 books planned) Edited November 22, 2020 by Eternal Khol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having so much fun going through everyone's theories, I'm glad i could get here right after a major release! 5 minutes ago, Eternal Khol said: whats your favorite Novel and character? If i had to make a call, I'd go with Oathbringer, but Bands of Mourning comes in at a VERY close second. As for favorite character though, it's Maya from Stormlight by a longshot. She may not do much, but she has yet to have a scene that didn't make me full on ugly cry. 8 minutes ago, Eternal Khol said: also, if your going through the Unpublished works.

I was unaware that there was a way to access unpublished works that didn't get wide release on Brandon's site, how would one request that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scout_Fox Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Welcome to the Shard! I would so agree with Eternal here love the name! Glad to have you with us in full Cosmererian form and ready to strike down the spoilers with your knowledge Perfect timing getting Arcanum in right before Dawshard and RoW nicely done! And totally with RoW just out the Shard is bustling it is the perfect time to come join us especially if you've been lurking for a while! Ooh I like your OB favorite as well. Definitely an epic book for seeing the grand scope of things and all the magic that comes into play! I would definitely do as Eternal put there and go get yourself Aether! If you had to swap one book in the SA series so far with a picture of Nyan Cat which would you choose? Look forward to seeing you around the Shard! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to swap out Edgedancer. Kind of cheating going off-main series, but I had a lot of trouble getting into it because I didn't realize I'd already read the first chapter and was getting serious deja-vu. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the Shard! Glad to have ya! Yeah, I’ve read all the Cosmere books except white sand. What is your favorite form of Investiture? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I hope you get a chance to read White Sand at some point, because I think Sand Mastery might be my favorite investiture system. Specifically the way a less-powerful user can overcome a more powerful user through careful strategy and precise execution. It gives users another axis to improve along. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't find a physical copy, Amazon has the Comixology version available digitally. It's a pretty good app for reading comics, i liked the cinematic mode a lot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting thinking though, yeah honestly I kindof had the same issue with like "Wait, didn't I read this?" On like the second try though started to get into it more. Welcome again!

Honorless Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 Welcome to the Shard! Huh, it's rare for someone to put something from White Sand as their favourite in anything! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
