Hello everyone!

[jgros009 he/him]

Hi everyone, 

I have been checking this site out for some time now (mainly via links from the Wiki) and decided I would join. I started reading Sanderson in college, when I was finishing up the WoT series. I was so impressed with his writing style and faithfulness to Robert Jordan that I had to delve a little deeper into his work. I started by reading the Mistborn trilogy and followed that up within a year or so with the first two novels in the SA. Needless to say, I have not looked back since. His books, magic systems, and character development is amazing and I feel like I am constantly engaged. I am somewhat embarrassed to admit that, up until a reading the most recent Wax and Wayne Era Mistborn novel (and consequently buying Mistborn: SH right after having finished it), I did not realize that all of these novels were tied together into an overarching fantasy world. Upon realizing this, a love for and desire to read every single piece of Brandon's Cosmere related work overtook me. Since then I have been doing a lot of research into the ties that bind this incredible fantasy world. Up to this point, I have read all of his major novels, but I am trying to hold out on a few of the novellas until the Arcanum Unbound collection ships in November (time will tell if I can make myself wait).

 

I am happy to be here and greatly enjoy the theories I have read so far!

Welcome! If you've read all the books, you don't have to worry about spoilers, but don't take the cookies, they are... Ruined.

Welcome to the Shard, have an upvote! 

I read all of Mistborn Era I, WoK, most of WoR, and all of Mistborn Era II before I found the Cosmere. I was reading SH and WoR at the same time, and then saw the name Nazh in both books. You're not alone in not-knowing-about-the-cosmere-until-most-of-the-way-through  

Also, as Renoux said, don't accept the cookies!! They are... Inquisitor friendly.

@KnightRadiant Once I realized everything was connected I had to do a mass reread. Nazh was one of the overlaps I noticed first as well!

Cookie haters.  All they do are give you an, um, Spren that talks to you. Besides, the new recipe is 100 (0) percent possession-free!
