Hoidwillsaveus Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Hi all! I'm new obviously and have a question. I have read the stormlight archive books and both mistborn trilogies. Love them both but stormlight is my favorite. Any recommendations on which books to read next? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your favorite character? Magic system? Now, onto books: Elantris is pretty good, but it starts a little slow. It is a great book though. If you're looking for a book outside of the Cosmere, then Skyward is a really good one. The Rithmatist is also one of my favorite non-Cosmere books. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Well, you should probably read Warbreaker next. Some of the characters from Stormlight are in it and it's a fabulous read. (just like anything else by Sanderson) You could also read Elantris. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for magic system I like the allomancy from the mistborn. I like the idea of not having unlimited power. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allomacy is one of my favorites too. If you want to learn more about Hoid, there is a Coppermind article (be very wary of spoilers) and plenty of stuff about him here on the Shard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGirlWhoLookedUp she/her Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 If you haven’t already, you could try Mistborn Secret History, or Edgedancer. They both offer more insight to Mistborn and The Stormlight Archives. If you have, then I would definitely suggest Elantris. It’s my personal favorite and one of the reasons is because it’s only one book. I don’t have to wait forever for the main conflict to be resolved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
