Radiant Returned he/him Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 As excited as I am for Oathbringer, I'm just as excited to add to my Cosmere leather bound collection with "The Well of Ascension". I know Sanderson hasn't released the details on what exactly this edition will entail, but I assume it's safe to say the exterior will be the matching color/design as "The Final Empire" was. The thing I really want to know is what Allomantic symbol will grace the cover of WoA? The symbol for Iron was on tFE, so my best guess would be for Steel on WoA, but that makes me wonder how they're going to handle this pattern for all the sequels? We know the metals come in sets of 4 (Physical, Emotional, etc.), so will the original trilogy just go Iron, Steel, and then say Tin and just leave out Pewter? Or will Pewter get picked up in the next Mistborn (Alloy of Law or as I believe Sanderson mentioned he would do a AoL/SoS combo book because of size)? If somehow someway thirty or forty years from now when the entire series is in leather bound it worked out to having 16 editions covering each base metal that would be amazing. Anyways, I wanted to know if there were any rumors regarding this or any theories, or lastly how y'all would like to see this done?
Argent he/him Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 I haven't heard anything, but I wouldn't be surprised to see an announcement soon.
Khyrindor he/him Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Iron is the allomantic symbol for 1. Whatever the allomantic symbol for 2 is will probably grace the cover of WoA. Whether or not the same pattern will continue with Era 2...we'll have to see.
Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 What is going on with this book? I keep checking his store, but it isn’t there yet.
Farnsworth Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) I ordered a personalized copy two days after it was released and it still hasn’t come. Should I be worried? Edited February 21, 2018 by Farnsworth

I just got mine like 3 days ago. They're probably in the process of shipping them in batches. And the symbol on this book is steel to answer the original question.

Sanderson puts a ton of time into his answers, so it probably takes a while before they get shipped out.

The status of your order will change to "shipped" on the website when they actually hand it over to USPS, FedEx, etc. Trying logging into your account to see if it says it's been shipped or if it's still processing. If I were you and I hadn't heard anything by the first week or two into March, I'd drop an email to the store. Kara is generally quick to respond. My guess is that the shipping process just takes a while for a smaller business. Theoretically say all the books are signed, and hypothetically they sold 2,000, it'd take 3 weeks to ship them all if they packaged up 100 books per day. I'd say you're fine, but it wouldn't hurt to email them if you don't get a shipping notification within the next couple weeks. 1
