Glorfs Tresses Posted March 27 Report Share Posted March 27 (edited) Hi! I have been trying to catch up on Cosmere works so that I can stop spoiling stuff for myself and be able to dive into discussions without hesitation. I thought I might share my tentative schedule here because I think it may help me get through a lot before the release of the Stormlight 5 novel! I know it may not seem like a very fast paced schedule. I typically read pretty fast but unfortunately I have little to no free time to sit down and read. However, I have learned that audiobooks are my friends when it comes to that challenge and can help me average 2 to 3 books per month. My Schedule is a little out of order because I was hooked on the The Stormlight Archive novels before I discovered that there was a connection to the Cosmere. I am trying my best to keep with the spirit of the chronological order, even with the novellas and short stories, but I do not intend for it to be perfect since I have already started. I have read a lot of people's orders on here and had fun figuring out the best schedule for myself! Note: Edited based on your suggestions So far, I have read all four of the main Stormlight Archive novels and Tress of the Emerald Sea. I also will finish up Mistborn: The Final Empire today! I had started The Sunlit Man before realizing how far ahead it was so I stopped in the middle to revisit later. Before the End of March: Mistborn: The Final Empire and Edgedancer April: The Eleventh Metal, The Well of Ascension, and The Hero of Ages May: Elantris, The Hope of Elantris, and The Emperor's Soul June: Warbreaker and White Sand Omnibus July: The Alloy of Law, Dawnshard, and Finish up White Sand Omnibus, August: Shadows of Self, The Bands of Mourning, and Mistborn: Secret History September: The Lost Metal and Allomancer Jak and the Pits of Eltania October: Sixth of the Dusk and Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell November: Yumi and the Nightmare Painter and The Sunlit Man December: SA 5! Let me know if I forgot anything! Spoiler Even though these are Cosmere books, I decided to post this on this forum because this seems the most free for posting stuff just because and... I got scared to disrupt any of the main Cosmere forums The day I am posting this is March 27th for reference.

I also will finish up Mistborn: The Final Empire today! So, does that mean this will be a first-time read for everything outside of Stormlight Archive? Or is this a re-read for Mistborn as well? Considerations: Spoiler The Lost Metal has spoilers for Emporer's Soul (and references to TES that will be difficult to understand without reading TES first) Recommend Emperor's Soul after Elantris and Hope of Elantris Allomancer Jak can be read as early as after-Alloy of Law - no spoilers for any other Era 2 But no issues leaving it for later either - just know that events in later books will make this . . . out of date Any other considerations I may suggest will depend on if Mistborn is a re-read or a first read. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they help 8 minutes ago, Glorfs Tresses said: First-time read for everything. Awesome - hope you enjoy the ride. On a side note: Spoiler Do you know or care about the ancillary material, such as Annotations? They can be found here on the website. I usually recommend to friends that they save them for after the each book (or series), but the website version do have spoilers hidden if you decide to read them side-by-side. Warning: The Warbreaker eBook comes with the annotations built-in, but eBooks cannot hide spoilers. I know you said you plan to do all/mostly audio - but if reading the Warbreaker eBook, either skip them or wait until after the novel to avoid spoilers. The consideration that is re-read dependant is due to secret history. I'll post in a spoiler so you can come back and check it after you get that far: Spoiler I posted a re-read "bonus" method of integrating Secret history into Era 1 for re-reads. It can be found here Edited March 27 by Treamayne Examples 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
