Wander89 he/him Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Greetings from Scotland! I'm Graham. Have been a kinda-long time fan of Brandon. Looking share ideas and hopefully have a lot of discussion and insight on the forums but thought i'd introduce myself first. Having read Mistborn Era 1. Read Final Empire and just dashed through the trilogy quicker than any previous books. Picked up Stormlight Archive and was completely mind blown by the sheer vastness and complexity of it. Read the remaining Cosmere books and adore the fact that they can be read standalone as their own books or as a great vast universe. Am currently on my first read of Oathbringer and it's just amazing how everything pieces together and expands in the same way. Having read the traditional fantasy tropes, Lord of the Rings, Wheel of Time, Kingkiller, A Song of Ice & Fire, it's a great breath of fresh air to see something "new" yet so inviting and Thrilling. (...get it?) If anyone has any questions then please just let me know and I look forward to chatting with everyone deeper into the forums after I catch up! NB; My severe OCD kicked in when I got Oathbringer delivered however I couldn't wait for paperback to continue the series hahaha. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a bit of a tough one, if i'm honest. Depends on a few aspects really. Vin: I'm a sucker for the orphan turns into hero trope in fantasy books but Vin was a complete other level. Kaladin: Someone with such Honor and respect that has to be adored. Just when you think you need someone, Kaladin turns up. Lift: Isn't Lift just fuuuuuuuun!? Sanderson writes such respected, down-to-earth, deep characters that it's hard to choose just one! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the sense of mystery and intrigue that always surrounds it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ark1002 Posted June 30, 2018 Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) Scadrial is the best. I wonder if there is an actual 17th shard organization called Bridge 4.... There is ghostbloods, so why not? Edited June 30, 2018 by Ark1002 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have thought that'd have been one of the more popular ones! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitBitio he/him Posted June 30, 2018 Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 For some reason, the most popular groups are named TUBA and the Dark Alley 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
