darthbarry17 he/him Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 for randomly recommending The Way of Kings about a year ago. The description didn't really sound like my thing, but I gave it a shot and was hooked before I finished the prologue. Right away the whole thing just felt so BIG. Read all four Stormlight books before learning about the Cosmere, so I spent the last six months catching up. I now recommend my friends start with Mistborn, but there's something pretty cool about starting with Stormlight and knowing there's so much you don't understand even as you read. It's been a great year of reading these books, and I'm glad to have somewhere to keep reading as I wait for new books for the first time. Don't know how else I could make it through. Thanks for having me! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer he/him Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Welcome to the Shard! Who's your favourite Sanderson character (so far)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthbarry17 he/him Posted June 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Can't believe someone would try to spike me with a cookie... Favorite character is tough, but likely Shallan. Others are Vin, Shai (loved Emperor's Soul), Szeth, and Taln! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ElephantEarwax he/him Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) Welcome to the Shard. Have a cookie and an upvote. As a continue to Archer, why are they your favorite? For initiation would you say, "My life to yours, my Breath become yours" Oh... Still. Curse Archer's Signature.

darthbarry17 he/him Posted June 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 I'm embarrassed admit that I let you both rick-roll me... But even though I'm clearly new to the internet, I'm not new enough to the Cosmere to give my Breath away. I need that extra magic sauce %. I'll decline the cookie, too, but I have to assume I'd stop eating it before I managed to pierce my own skin? Unless it's a REALLY good cookie and I just couldn't control myself. Shallan's my favorite partially because she can't have a normal conversation without turning it into a big witty joke, and I relate to that. Vin because when she fights she is the dagger and when she loves she is the kiss, Shai because she's so proud of her work, Szeth because what do you do with all that crazy, and Taln for a certain quote in Oathbringer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ElephantEarwax he/him Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 True. Taln is one of my favorites. Sorry for the letting the Rick-rolling start. I still find it funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelly Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 I did the same thing via Amazon! I think the Kindle version was on sale for like $4.99 and I was like, "meh might as well, I like fantasy". Then I didn't sleep for a week.
