Who is Hoid? Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Hey! Just wanted to introduce myself. I joined this forum because it was long in coming. About me, well... I am really quite obsessed with the Stormlight Archive, even though I am going to be dead by the time he finishes the darn thing! Ah well, I then moved onto the Mistborn Series which I really enjoyed. I have read most of Sanderson's novels and novellas to date, minus the Alcatraz series and a couple of his very first novels. If you were to look into my copy in the WOK you would see my characteristically sloppy handwriting covering all the sides. His style and different voices in writing really drew me in and now I am here to stay! None of my friends understand my love for these books but thats what the internet is for. Right? Really excited! Thanks all! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze1616 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Welcome! So I take it that SA is your favorite of his? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who is Hoid? Posted October 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 How'd ya guess? I have read WOR over 7 times and WOK at least twice. Yeah, I love that series. Can't wait for book three! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze1616 Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 There's about a year wait for #3, assuming Brandon's schedule doesn't kill him. Also, have you read Elantris? You said you haven't read some of his early works, so I'm just curious which ones those are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbereth Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Hi! Welcome to the 17th Shard! I'm guessing you know who Hoid is, despite your username, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who is Hoid? Posted November 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 You are right, Blaze, I have not read Elantris. Along with The Emperor's Soul, The Wheel of Time or The Rithmatist series. I am getting there, but I am finishing Shadows of Self at the moment. I do know who Hoid is, although would always like to know more! I had no idea for what to use as a username, so just chose this one. I am pretty new to the Cosmere in general however, so I might be stumbling into waters, I really know nothing about! Since joining, I have discovered that Sanderson fans can get pretty involved with theories, quotes, citations, the magic systems and WoB's (Love the terminology!)! I have never seen a fan base like it. So excited to learn and theorize with you guys! Thanks for the warm welcome! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbereth Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 I would recommend Elantris/The Emperor's Soul first, so that you don't get spoilered by accident while looking around. Rithmatist isn't mentioned so often, and Wheel of Time just takes so long to get through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
