Long try Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Hi there everybody! I wonder if there is anyone here from Vietnam, or at least Asia? As a debut post, I've got some questions for you already: 1. What is the reason behind our name 17th shard? What are the other 16? 2. I rated WoR 5 stars because there's no option of 4.5 on goodreads. The reason behind it is some plotholes, or at least some logic inconsistency that I found in numerous parts. They bug me quite a lot, and I couldn't find a proper place to discuss them there. So... what is the sub-forum where I should post those questions? And what should I expect? You know, as we're all Sandersonites, I'm afraid some of the responses would be like "Shut up", "Brendon is a god & can't make a mistake"... something like that. Thank you & cheers! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ammanas Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Welcome! The god of the universe, where many of his books take place, (Stormlight Archives, Mistborn, Elantris, etc) was shattered into 16 different shards (or pieces of himself that contain great power). Odium in Stormlight Archives is a person who has one of them. Honor was another https://coppermind.net/wiki/Shard The 17th Shard is a organization https://coppermind.net/wiki/Seventeenth_Shard Feel free to be as critical as you wish with Brandon as long as you are polite and list the reasons why you have a problem with it. You will find people that will politely counter your arguments and people that will agree with you. I’m not afraid to be critical of Brandon when I feel it’s warranted. We are for the most part reasonable around here if you look at the forum part of the website you can find a section called Stormlight Archives. You can post all questions related to that series there Edited June 21, 2019 by Ammanas 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long try Posted June 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 Thanks a bunch! Wow, those links lead to a rabbit hole. It was quite hard to stop myself from revealing too much spoilers But they are super helpful anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
