I've read the reckoners trilogy, which is Steelheart, firefight, and calamity. I've also read way of kings, and I'm in the process of reading words of divergence.

Its cool.

I know! I read reckoners, they are awesome. They got me into brandon. I can't believe I thought brandon was just another 'random superhero fantasy author', and then I was like... the superheros are the BAD guys?!?!?!?!?

Yeah it was the first Sanderson book I read. the reason its one of my favorite books is because of the perspective, not the writing. Not that the writing is bad, but the idea was just so fascinating and creative.

Ooo Elhokar is an interesting choice, I don't hear that one as often.

I think bagels are great! My least favorite Sanderson character is from Rhythm of War, have you read that book yet?

Alight, that's why I thought I should ask 

My least favorite character from WoK is probably Sadeus.

Gonna have to agree with you there I think he’s masterfully written but he’s such a butthead

Yeah, Sadeas sucks but I can't hate someone so smart and intriguing. Elhokar just causes problems without realizing what he's doing, and the clumsiness of him is what makes him my least favorite.

I need you to imagine this… scenario.

You find yourself, wits about you, stranded on a dessert island.

To your right is a live chicken.

To your left are some ration bars.

What do you eat first?

hmm interesting question. I feel like this is a trick question. I think i would stop imagining, eat the desserts, or eat wit, cause i don't want him making fun of me and wasting food. But for a real answer, i would eat the ration bars because that would best help me stay alert enough to find a way off, and i can get eggs from the chicken, so eating it would be a waste. What would you answer?

SA is cosmere. but you havent read enough to know what MoIs are. Also, read other cosmere books, there will be things in the SA that will be best appreachiated with the knowledge.
