So glad I found this group. Looking forward to learning more about the Cosmere as I  peruse discussions and read opinions.

Which Cosmere books have you read so far?

[Dsquared]

I've read the original Mistborn trilogy and both Stormlight books. Really looking forward to to Oathbringer.

I'd recommend reading Elantris and Warbreaker, the latter of which can be found for free on Brandon's website, and take a reread of SA. It makes some characters/events make a little more sense. You know, because of worldhoppers and stuff.

Agreed that reading Warbreaker in preparation for Oathbringer will probably be a good move. (Have you read the Edgedancer novella yet? It is a story of what Lift does before Oathbringer starts. It's inside the Arcanum Unbounded collection, but also available as a stand-alone ebook.)

If you have more time than that, I recommend starting in on era 2 of Mistborn, which takes place 300 years after Hero of Ages.

I've read The Way of Kings 3....possibly four times and I am currently re-reading Words of Radiance but I am extremely slow reader. I haven't read Edgedancer yet but I've pre-ordered the stand-alone which is to be released a few weeks prior to Oathbringer.

I'd love to read Warbreaker but can't find where to get it for fee on Brandon's site.

Could one of you fine folks maybe provide a link in this thread?

Thanks so much, Old Friend! This is awesome. Now I just need to pick up the pace in order to be ready for the big one on November 14th.
