Zan Zhro he/him Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Hey all! I'm Zan Zhro, as it probably says somewhere nearby. Not entirely sure what I should include in this, aside from the fact that I've read the first five Mistborn books (The Final Empire, Well of Ascension, Hero of Ages, Alloy of Law, and Shadows of Self) and am currently in the process of reading The Bands of Mourning (All by Brandon Sanderson). I love talking about the Magicals Modes on Scadrial to my friends, even those that don't know what they are, and am incredibly excited to talk to people who may actually understand what I'm talking about! So, see you all around! 3
KnightRadiant she/her Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Welcome Zan Zhro! Have an upvote! Also, avoid the cookies. Have you read anything else by Brandon Sanderson, or just Mistborn?
Zan Zhro he/him Posted December 9, 2016 Author Posted December 9, 2016 @KnightRadiant Sadly, no. Just the Mistborns up until BoM, but I don't intend to stop there! My friend told me the Steelheart books are really good, so I might read those next. Any other suggestions?
Clockwork he/him Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Hello! I also Offer you an upvote! However, I offer a great gift! Have an amazing cookie!

Out of the cosmere books, that is.
Zan Zhro he/him Posted December 9, 2016 Author Posted December 9, 2016 @Ookla the Endless Aha, but I've been warned not to accept them! Not entirely sure why, but I'll learn at some point... 1
Zan Zhro he/him Posted December 9, 2016 Author Posted December 9, 2016 @KnightRadiant I think I might go for Stormlight next, then. I've seen A LOT of praise for them, but haven't read any content about them whatsoever, aside from the names.

I reread them just for that purpose. On a side note, you have heard of the cosmere, right?
Zan Zhro he/him Posted December 9, 2016 Author Posted December 9, 2016 @KnightRadiant I have, but very scarcely. Isn't it something like, all of Sanderson's books all take place in the same universe, known as the cosmere, or something?

There are minor spoilers for The Way of Kings, so read at your own risk. Oh, look at that. I broke 300. *silent celebration* Edited December 9, 2016 by KnightRadiant

So, see you all around! Hello, Zan! I am bleeder. I like music and vests. Welcome to the Shard. Mistborn is probably my favorite series; it certainly is excellent. You'll make new friends here, and learn a lot. Don't eat the cookies. They'll Ruin your life. If you ever need anything, give me a shout! See you around.
Bugsy he/him Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Hey Zan! Welcome to the forums! Have an upvote I can second the recomendation for stormlight, but stormlight is a book to read once you trust him. There's a lot of exposition, which isn't necessarily bad, but it makes it a bit difficult for first-time readers. Stick with it if you start it, it's worth it Also, here are links to Emperor's Soul and a draft of Warbreaker. Both are free to read, which is really nice As for the cookies, they're filled with spikes. This means that they're an excellent source of iron, but it also means they are prone to destroy your free will
