JercerDahlman Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) Hi all! As previous posters have mentioned before me, how did i not know this forum existed!? I have been antagonising my friends and especially my girlfriend forever with awesome cosmere lore and theories that have gone unnoticed. Even jokes! people nowadays have no taste whatsoever... Anyway! Im very glad to be here, and will dedicate tonight to plow through all interesting topics i have found and really just pig out on Sanderson My B.S trackrecord, in order of reading: * The Gathering Storm * Towers of Midnight * A memory of Light (Wheel of time is how i found Brandon, he performed brilliantly!) * The Way of Kings * Words of Radiance (reread theese 3 times before moving on ) * The Final Empire * The Well of Acsension * The Hero of ages (Reread once) * Elantris * Warbreaker * Arcanum Unbound * The Alloy of Law * Shadows of Self * Bands of mourning (Reread once) * Oathbringer (Oh my god... , instant reread) * The Rithmatist * Steelheart * Mitosis Currently on FireFight, next up: Calamity. Any tips on where to go next? Have no impression of the Legion series, any good? Infinity Blade? I do not expect anything from the Alcatraz series Well met!

I was a Wheel of Time convert as well. I'd recommend going with Arcanum Unbounded next. Brandon's short stories are some of his best work. Also it is a really good way to get a better feel for the Cosmere as a whole rather than just the individual stories of each series.

Kered Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Welcome to the Shard, look forward to seeing you around. I agree with Sovereign, Arcanum Unbounded would be the best next book for you. The new Arcanum intros give a lot of information, it has some really cool art. But mostly it's because of the convenience. All cosmere novella's in one place and it's pretty cool to compare the stories to find cosmere easter eggs. Arcanum Unbounded is also the easiest way to get Mistborn: Secret History. In my opinion it's my favorite novella so far and it even competes with some of the full novels. It is the story with the most cosmere information so far and it's an excellent "peak behind the curtain" book. But if you want to expand your knowledge other than reading the books, you should check out Coppermind and Arcanum. Coppermind is a fan made wiki with extensive and detailed info on all things cosmere. Arcanum is the interview database for pretty much every interview and O&A Brandon has ever done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have read it, but not all the novels. When i got Arcanum in the first place i had only read Stormligt and the first triology of Mistborn. I did not have the Cosmere knowledge to understand the rest, i have then revisited after reading Elantris and Wax and Wayne triology. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
