Texas Skybreaker Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Hi all! I'm about to dive into Arcanum Unbounded, so I wanted to make sure Im not about to encounter any spoilers or content where I need background. So far, I have read: Warbreaker, Elantris, all of Stormlight Archive and all of Mistborn Era 1. I have NOT read Mistborn Era 2 (Wax and Wayne). Anything I should skip for now in Arcanum Unbounded?

Nathrangking he/him Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 No you are good. There is nothing that will be spoiled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albumancer Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Hi! Yes, there is one thing to avoid. There's a slight spoiler for Wax&Wayne 3 at the end of Mistborn: Secret History. It's reasonably minor, so I'd say go ahead anyway, but if you're a spoilerphobe, skip over that one for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scion of the Mists Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 The preface for each section will talk about what spoilers it contains, so you'll know whether or not you need to skip it. However, I think that you're good as far as spoilers go, seeing as how you've read all the main works except for Mistborn Era 2. Regarding Secret History/Bands of Mourning, they were released at basically the same time, so I'm not sure it matters what order you read them in. P.s. @Texas Skybreaker, this is the wrong forum for this post. It should be in General Brandon Discussion - this is the Introduce Yourself! section. You can ask a moderator to move it by clicking the report post button on your post (don't worry about "reporting" your own post - you won't get in trouble). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Invocation Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 You're good to read all of it, but the Mistborn: Secret History is more fun after you've read Era 2/Wax and Wayne, so go back and read that then! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebecca she/her Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Allancer Jak and the Pits of Elantria is one you should avoid. That one takes place during era two, so you should probably read it after the three era two novels that are currently out. Secret History you could probably read before or after. I read it before, and I feel like it just set me up for era two instead of really spoiling anything (and I’m the kind of person who really hates spoilers). But the previous posts make good points as well, so whatever you want on that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy92 Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 My personal opinion, save Secret History until after you read Era 2. It gets called a “minor spoiler,” but I personally think the end of Bands of Mourning loses some of its wow factor if you’ve read Secret History first.

Undead Wookiee Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Skip Allomancer Jak and the Pits of Eltania as that contains spoilers for Mistborn Era 2 but only minor ones Everything else if fine though Edit but I believe there are notations about which stories contain spoilers for what (at least it is like that in the audible version, and I haven't doubled checked my dead tree format version yet) Edited October 15, 2018 by Undead Wookiee words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
