jbanner3 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 So with Calamity ending like it did, does anyone think it is likely that there will be more books with david and prof and everyone? There wasn't really a satisfying conclusion that would end the series as a whole, and i just kinda felt like it was left open for more. So question is, does anyone else think there will be more or anything you found that could hint at another/more books? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kala_Kitty Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 I agree. (Hello! Obliteration!) I've heard rumors, but all unsubstantiated. Just enough to give me hope. So, not really an answer, but maybe someone has heard better, more substantiated, rumors to add more hope. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nashan’Elin he/him Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Brandon mentioned at the Denver signing that he would do another Reckonerverse series that taking place in one of the Core Possibilites mentioned in Calamity. There isn't much info other than that right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kala_Kitty Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 That matches pretty closely to what I have heard. I just heard it too far removed to feel comfortable sharing it. Thank you, Nashan'Elin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king of nowhere Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 I don't know if it is a good idea. As it stands after calamity, the reckonerverse is left as a normal superhero/supervillain setting. How many dozens of those have been done? As much as I trust brandon, I fear making more material on the topic is like beating the metaphorical dead horse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kala_Kitty Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 I understand what you're saying, King, completely. I'm not suggesting an unending comic in novel form type of continuance. I just would like to see some of these loose ends to have closure. Even a short, like Mitosis, would be enough for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kestrel she/her Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 A short would be nice, but I feel like a second series isn't really needed plot wise. I'd still read it because I love the characters, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brightness Enna she/her Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Brandon mentioned at the Denver signing that he would do another Reckonerverse series that taking place in one of the Core Possibilites mentioned in Calamity. There isn't much info other than that right now. That sounds like a wonderful idea. See, I don't think the plot needs any more, but the setting needs to answer a few questions. Obliteration, a few questions at the end of Calamity, namely Where's he storming from? What are the bigger plans for the world? Does that mean more than one world exists? AAAHHHH possibilities. If Reckoners were cosmere we'd probably understand more about all this, but it's not, so that just scares me more! I saw mentioned somewhere (don't know where, sorry (but now that I think about it, it just might have been the acknowledgements of Calamity)) that if he revisited the world it would be as big a change as the one Scadrial went through. That seems like it would fit in. All in all, I think that having a story set in one of the Core Possibilities is precisely the story we need to answer those annoying questions. That may or may not have answers already (I haven't been lurking around there lately.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 The series if he did it would be set in the wider multiverse rather than on CalamityEarth, a group of characters travelling through the multiverse fixing things IIRC.EDIT: Also moved this to the Calamity subforum, cause spoilers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeutroniumAlchemist he/him Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Brandon mentioned at the Denver signing that he would do another Reckonerverse series that taking place in one of the Core Possibilites mentioned in Calamity. There isn't much info other than that right now. This is terrible news! Normally i like BS characters but Davids bad puns got old really quick. Not to mention that Mizzy-character he introduced in Firefight. Steelheart was good, Firefight was OK and Calamity forgettable. The cool ideas and concepts of this world has been milked already and the story-arc alone doesn't hold up anymore. If BS really must take his awesome writing time away from the Cosmere to write bland YA, i would much rather read the followup to the Rithmatist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natc Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 . . . what would another core possibility have anything to do with David's bad puns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeutroniumAlchemist he/him Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Oh nothing i expect, i was perhaps a bit harsh about the characters, i just didn't think they were up to Sandersons usual standard. My negativity was mostly based on the epic-world itself, even another core possibility would most certainly have epics in them and i just feel that the whole superhero theme has run it's course. It was a fun idea, what i liked the most was this idea that the usage of epic powers made the users themselves evil. Supercool idea. The explanation behind this however, was not. That an extra terrestrial/sullen teenager who was skulking was behind it all was a bit underwhelming and i would rather read something else by Sanderson then a continuation of this universe, that's all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natc Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 Well, it appears we're getting a "going between dimensions to save them from doom" premise with Apocalypse Guard, so that's a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilNuff Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 This is terrible news! Normally i like BS characters but Davids bad puns got old really quick. Not to mention that Mizzy-character he introduced in Firefight. ... You and I, my friend, have diametrically opposed views. I loved Mizzy and the bad puns were the absolute best thing about the books to me. I want more just for those! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BinaryCupcake Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Obliteration will probably be in Apocalypse Guard. ( tbh it's probably just about the parallel world with firefight and blain and that stuff ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junior Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 I suspect that you haven't read Sanderson's comments on the Apocalypse Guard series, which can be found on his website. That doesn't sound at all like Megan's parallel world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natc Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Actually the majority of them were similes. Megan noticed that first. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
