Hello everyone,

My name is Matteo aka matfire1999, I'm 18 and currently live in Florence. I first stumbled upon Brandon Sanderson with a promotion for The Last Empire in my local bookstore(Feltrinelli). I read the first trilogy in a few weeks and immediately bought the second one. Then I started reading the Way of Kings and I'm currently finishing up Worlds of Radiance.

Great! Welcome! Are you cosmere aware yet? If not this is a great place to find out. If so this and the coppermind is a great place to augment that knowledge.

I read something here and there, but I think I'll finish up WoR before checking out the cosmere(wouldn't want spoilers). Thanks for the tip

In Words of Radiance there is scene near the end that only makes sense if you have read Warbreaker...that might be a good candidate for your next book. Warbreaker kind of has a cult following; it is easily overlooked bc of Sandersons other books but some people really like it.

Hey, welcome to the Shard! Have an upvote and a cookie! It's spiked delicious!

How have you enjoyed Brandon's works so far? Besides Mistborn and tWoK, have you read any other Sanderson books (Steelheart, The Rithmatist)?

Once you've finished reading WoR, I'd recommend that you go read Warbreaker. You can find it for free on Brandon's website here. This book is really good, and is one of my favorites alongside tHoA and WoR. Plus, this one has some hints in it that'll make some Stormlight events/characters make a little more sense.

Anyway, enjoy your stay here!

@Ammanas He he. My friend has read both Warbreaker and SA, and she didn't realize the

sword Szeth got was Nightblood

till I told her. But I haven't gotten around to reading it yet, though it is in a pile of seven books by my bed that I need to read. And the only reason I know that, is because I was reading the page on the Coppermind about Szeth.

And welcome @matfire1999, and whatever you do, don't eat any cookies @StrikerEZ offers you. If you have already had one, have some of Rock's apple pie to counter the effects. If you haven't, just have some as a welcome gift.

The Dark Alley will never be defeated. The power of the cookies is too strong! The intro threads will forever be ours. :P

@cloudjumper Ooooooooookay. Well, I'll still offer pie, even if the Dark Alley can not be defeated. Besides, apples are good for your teeth! :P

I put this here without meaning to. Sorry.

Thanks, Striker, so far I've really enjoyed what I read by Sanderson(Mistborn, WoK and almost WoR). I'll definitely check out Warbreaker.
