Well, that's it. Hello everyone!

What of Cosmere have I read? :

  • Elantris
  • Stormlight Archive
  • Mistborn Trilogy

I haven't read Warbreaker or Alloy of Law yet, but lurking around TVTropes, then coppermind, then here exposed me to so many spoilers that I already know what's happening, so...yeah.

What else? I'm programmer in training; second year of university, which in my country means I'm 20. I finally decided to join the forum after I found a group of BS Polish fans on facebook (Yeah, I'm Polish, but I don't shine or something :P). Apparently I'm one of the most cosmere-aware there, not to brag, but it also means I keep surprising people with news of Hoid being an Allomancer and so on, so I got a lot of educating before me :)

My hobbies: apart from reading, it's bridge, mainly duplicate bridge. And I love sailing, although I don't have many opportunities to do so (in fact I haven't done that for two years, but love is love).

I yet to have figure out what's that shardhunt (and other things) some people talk about, so pardon me not being up-to-date :D

(And I got some ideas about metals system, but more about later)

P.S. Is there some archive of all WoB? With filters etc?

Hello! Welcome to the 17th Shard! And the shardhunt hasn't been happening for a while now, I don't think. You'll be fine, though obviously watch out for Shadows of Self spoilers until you manage to read the Era 2 Mistborn books.

Ideas for metal system? Well, I don't know exactly what you mean. If you mean ramifiactions, check out the Mistborn forum, though again, careful of spoilers. If you mean cool other powers, try this thread.

Also, there's an incomplete archive at Theoryland, thanks to the WoT fans. The rest is just in the Signing thread, I think.

Welcome to the 17th Shard! Do you like reading spoilers? Because I do, and sometimes I feel like I'm the only spoiler-loving Sharder around. (Although no, I try not to spoil other people.)

 

Anyway, I look forward to seeing your thoughts on the metals system. See you around!

Actually, I have made some cookies. Do you want one of them? Does anybody want a cookie?

Also, my thoughts about the metals are less of a consistent theory and more of asking ourselves the right questions.

mmmm... cookies. I could take you up on that offer. Read all about the spiked cookies!

Read 'em anyway. The books are all about the nuances anyway, kolo?

I will, but I'm waiting for a reprint - here in Poland right now we have a rerun of Mistborn books due to Stormlight Archive being a hit (and beacuse anything cosmere apart from SA and AoL was impossible to buy, even with libraries I had to do some insane searching). In June was the first one, in August WoA and in October HoA. I am awaiting for Alloy of Law in January and Shadows Of Self in March. I heard that Elantris will get a reprint next year, this time the enhanced edition and with Emperor's Soul.

It's a good time to be Sanderson fan :)

These are covers for the first four Mistborn books:

and this is for the Shadows of Self:

Awesome, right?

I think I do too. I have a story too. Like five years ago, I was reading a book which a friend of mine recommended. It was boting and I was thinking to not read the other half. It was a detective book so I asked my friend, who was the murderer etc. Then he told me everything, suddenly I became very optimistic about the book and read the other part. And I 'enjoyed' it! That was very weird :D

 

By the way, welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy it like I do :)
