CuratorOTL IG Posted May 4 Report Share Posted May 4 I just finished binge-reading the three Legion novellas, and honestly... I wasn't expecting to love them as much as I did. I went in expecting to be intrigued by the concept of someone who's hallucinations help him solve crimes, but instead I came to love the hallucinations themselves. The ending of Lies of the Beholder was one of the few stories that managed to pull at my heartstrings like it did, especially when he took the photo in the limo. I don't know how Sanderson does it, but my word he's a master at it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just be glad you didn't have to wait for the second and third story like some of us (2012, 2014, 2018 - it was a long four years). Now the Ultimate question: Spoiler Have you also read Perfect State?

Brandon's Website: Spoiler Nominated for the 2016 Hugo Award for Best Novella! From the author of Legion and the #1 New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archivecomes an action-filled novella about privilege, culture clash, and expectations. God-Emperor Kairominas is lord of all he surveys. He has defeated all foes, has united the entire world beneath his rule, and has mastered the arcane arts. He spends his time sparring with his nemesis, who keeps trying to invade Kai’s world. Except for today. Today, Kai has to go on a date. Forces have conspired to require him to meet with his equal—a woman from another world who has achieved just as much as he has. What happens when the most important man in the world is forced to have dinner with the most important woman in the world? Read Excerpt Here It may be eBook only (or, at least, I have never seen a physical printing). Though, I think it is planned for his non-Cosmere anthology when/if that gets put together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
