Hello and questions from the Dec-21 signing

[tubok]

I’ve been lurking for far too long now, so I thought I’d introduce myself and share my questions and answers from Brandon’s December 21 book signing in Orem, Utah.

 

Hi everyone, my name is Joe Graff, and I have a Brandon Sanderson problem. I’ve read all his books already and want more. Now. :-)

 

Before I get to the questions, I just want to say what a genuinely nice guy Brandon seems. My wife, who hasn’t read and only knows about him through me said, “Wow! He’s just so nice!” On to the three questions...

 

Q: Could Sazed take up one or more additional shards?

A: Under the right circumstances, yes! (He also corrected my pronunciation—it’s Say-zed. But did say some in-world characters use one syllable. As in rhymes with ‘dazed’.)

 

Q: OK, since that’s the case, if someone took up all 16 shards, would that put Andonalsium back together

A: <big grin> That’s a RAFO! (And just like that I get a RAFO card for Christmas!)

 

Q: What color is Autonomy’s shardpool on Taldain?

A: RAFO. Really good question though.

 

Full disclosure, Drew McCaffrey gave me the third question. Thanks, Drew!

Great questions! Ive been wondering about #2 for a while now, so it’s nice to have it answered/RAFOed. Welcome!
