Hello Everyone! Looking for Cosmere information, in doses.

[Alyosha]

Hey guys, I finally decided to register here.

 

I just started reading Brandon Sanderson a couple months ago, but I really like his writing.

 

So far i've read: The Mistborn Trilogy, Warbreaker, Steelheart/Firefight and I just finished The Way of Kings.

 

I was wondering if there is a place where I can get information on the Cosmere, based on which books i've read. Like, sort of a "Cosmere Summary" of each book. Because I haven't yet read Words Of Radiance, and I don't want to spoil anything, but I would like to know as much about the Cosmere as I can before moving on.

 

I've seen glances of people mentioning "Harmony" and stuff like that, but I haven't seen it in any books yet. Where do people get that information? Is it in WOR? Stuff like that is what i'm trying to figure out, but I just don't want to accidentally spoil myself.

Harmony is in Alloy of law. It is just what people call Sazed after his ascension. 

[Alyosha]

Ahh, yea! Of course it's in Alloy of Law. Completely forgot about that one, as I was waiting to read it when the other two come out.

Any other cosmere questions? I've read all of the canon cosmere stuff, so I'll answer whatever I can.

[Quiver he/him]

Welcome! Hope you enjoy your stay.

 

I'm afraid I don't know anywhere that matches what you're looking for, though- sorry. The only thing I could say would be the Coppermind, but considering thats the wikipedia for all of Brandon's stuff, that would be very difficult to avoid spoilers with.

Brandon has a SCINTILLATING website where he posts VAST QUANTITIES of info about his current/future projects!!! it even has an update tab that shows with how far along he is with his work!!!!!!!

i'm just from there, it's great. he even has a cut-scenes section!!!!!!!!!

 

i hope that helps.

Thanks for the replies guys! After some more browsing around, I eventually came across something similar to what I was looking for. There is a post on the Stormlight Archive reddit page, located here.

 

It contains information on where in the books you can find Cosmere related information. This is perfect, since I didn't know about the Cosmere at first, but now I can go back and check out those sections and catch up on what I have missed initially. 

 

Unfortunately, the author didn't ever seem to update it for WoR, but anyway, now that I know about the Cosmere, I can look myself.

 

Only have to finish Alloy of Law, Elantris, the Emperors Soul, WoR, and some of the novellas, and i'll have read all the Cosmere canon so far, and then I can move on to checking the Wiki without worry of spoilers!

I believe the narrative bits in the Mistborn Adventure game (as well as the two current expansions) are considered Canon as well. And don't forget "The Hero of Elantris," that one isn't available from Amazon anymore, but you can read it on Brandon's website for free.

Content within the MAG is considered canon until Brandon says otherwise. It's a sort of pseudo-canon. I'm pretty sure that relates to the narrative and the rules.
