So this post is meant for us to make a list of people we have converted to The Stormlight Archive. Meaning people we shared the book with and who like us, have lost their minds due to it. so the way it works is: List off people who you got to read the book and a sub list of people they then converted. Only real people no making up names please. Don't use peoples full name without permission please.

I shall keep track of the numbers as best I can and whoever is responsible for spreading this book around the most shall promptly get a thumbs up from me towards their rank.

I'll start

So I first read TWOK years ago then shared it with

My brother Sam, who got his wife to read it. 2

My brothers Luke and Ryan who got my other brother Ben to read it. 3

My wife, finally. 1

And five boys from my boy scout troop( I'm a leader in the troop). 5

Also one coworker.1

Total = 12 people converted to the awesomeness of the Stormlight Archive

Five of them I let barrow my first copy of TWOK and i just got it back here is what it looks like after all these years.post-10619-0-36842000-1433543794_thumb.j

I am ashamed to say that I have yet to convert anyone (not for lack of trying) but after a long struggle I have managed to get some members of my family to read Steelheart and it is my firm hope that once I've got them hooked I can move them to other Sanderson series like Stromlight.

I haven't convince anyone to read SA. Most people in my entourage either do not read or are not interested in reading fantasy or are wary on starting a new series only 2 books into...

 

I so wish I have real life people to talk SA with, but sadly there is no one  :(

( Sad Violin) Sorry Laxam.

I convinced my brother to read The Creators words. He now bows as I do.

Thats about it.... Food is Love!!!

I've converted about 8 and 1/2.

3 brothers, 2 sisters, a classmate at school, my dad, (sorta) and two grandparents, to an extent.\

 

Since I discovered the Sanderson 5 years ago or so, I'd say my track record is pretty good B)

Just one.  I originally got The Way of Kings in paperback, but when I realized how awesome it was and that there would be nine more in the series (this was before Words of Radiance came out), I decided to get a hardback copy.  Since I now had an extra, I gave my original paperback copy to a friend.  A week later (!) I got an email from her that said, "Why didn't you warn me he hasn't written book two yet!?"

I've got both of my sisters and one other girl converted so far. I'm working on my best friend at the moment but unless I can get her to try Alcatraz I don't think it's happening.

  • Me
    • My Brother
    • My Dad
    • My Cousin
    • 4 Friends
      • One of the friend's little brothers

 

So that's a total of 8, and I've it's only been 3 yrs. since I read it the first time.

 

after letting 4 people borrow my copy of WoR, I literally had to tape the hardcover back on

Most people around me do not read fantasy/sci-fi and are not interested in this genre, so I have no chance to recommend SA to them, sigh... Till now, in real life, I've only converted one of my college roommates to read some Cosmere books. I lent her the translated copies of Mistborn Era 1 and The Way of Kings, saying those are really good. Pity that she didn't finish the former, but since she, to my great pleasure, made it through WoK and liked the book on the whole, I assume that can be counted as a successful case. (I would continue lending her SA books, so that I can at least have a friend to talk to...)

 

When online, I keep posting various SA fan art everywhere. If people ask, "where are those awesome characters from?", I will reply to them proudly, "They are from a new epic fantasy series called The Stormlight Archive. Go read it. You won't regret it!!! BELIEVE ME! JUST GO  AND READ IT!" In this way, I think I have achieved more :)

Thankfully i've finally converted one! Got a friend to read The Rithmatist, she loved it as much as me.
Then made her read Mistborn. She loved Final Empire more than WoA but still loved them both. Can't wait until she reads the next one! It's like witnessing how i felt when reading the books!
