Nerd3.14159265358979 he/him Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Hi all! I'm new to the forums in the sense that I haven't had an account for very long, but I have read a fair amount here for the time that I've been a Cosmere fan. Speaking of that, I've been reading the Cosmere for about 6 months, and I've read everything but Warbreaker, as I've been told it has some sketchy sections that I may want to skip, and I haven't yet had access to a copy with those sections marked. I have, however, read the synopsis in order to gain any Cosmere content I may want (I'm glad I did this, cause Oathbringer). I've also read the Reckoners and the Rithmatist. Warbreaker is now finished. Edited February 10, 2018 by Nerd3.14159265358979 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HERESY! :-O Seriously though, I did find Warbreaker to be a bit hard to follow in parts, and I didn't enjoy it as much as other Cosmere books. But regardless, I can't think of any part that I would recommend skipping entirely, it would get very confusing. It's not a very long book (well, not compared with many of his other books anyhow ) so I'd recommend just reading it anyway. PS, beware the cookies 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hurts me inside to consider skipping too (in any book-especially Sanderson)-which is probably why I haven't sought out a marked version. After your post, I'll probably just read it. Thanks for the cookie warning too-I've heard it has something to do with Hemalurgy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tis great to have you, As for Warbreaker: there are some... interesting scenes, but it never gets too bad. I am a fairly sensitive soul, and as soon as I was like "Maybe I should put this down" it didn't get worse, and the scene ended pretty fast. I'd suggest giving it a read, and enjoying it, it is one of my favorite magic systems, has fun characters, and is Sanderson. So read it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
