dants he/him Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 Hi guys! My name is Daniel, I'm a new 17th Sharder, and I've read some of your theories. Very interesting thoughts. I hope to become better acquainted with the Cosmere and to eventually read all of Sanderson's books. By the way, does anyone have a list of published books and/or unpublished ones? Thanks! 3
Quiver he/him Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 Aether no doubt does. Aether has lists for everything. He even has lists of Lists. It's quite terrifying. Published Cosmere Elantris Mistborn: The Final Empire Mistborn: The Well of Ascension Mistborn: The Hero of Ages Mistborn: The Alloy of Law Warbreaker The Way of Kings The Words of Radiance The Emperors Soul [short Story set on Sel] Shadows for Silence in the Forest of Hell [short Story set on 'an unimportant Shardworld] 1
dants he/him Posted May 27, 2014 Author Posted May 27, 2014 cool, thanks! I was also wondering, any recommendations as to the first thing (besides intros) that a new 17th Sharder should do? 1
Quiver he/him Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 My personal recommendation is Warbreaker. It's available for free on Brandon's site and, while it might not be the best written of his books, it's still got strong prose, interesting characters,and highlights some of his biggest strengths as a writer: the ability to create complex, unique and original magic systems, and to subvert classic fantasy cliches.
dants he/him Posted May 27, 2014 Author Posted May 27, 2014 I've already finished most of those. The only one I need to get my hands on is Shadows for Silence in the Forest of Hell. 1
Ashiok Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 have you checked out the non book related threads? (especially the stuff going on in the social clans thread) You could sign up for the WoR Sanderson Elimination RP game (Mafia in the cosmere)
Quiver he/him Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 Cosmere Mafia: http://www.17thshard.com/forum/forum/62-sanderson-elimination/ It's located in the RPG sub-forum. I don't think there are any open games at the moment though; i haven't checked it in a while.
Ashiok Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 Quick fix two is about to start But it isn't such a quick one... Its really complicated and stuff
Delightful Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 I'd recommend reading through the fun threads, in particular the Social Clubs etc group of the board, as well as threads such as You Know You're A Sanderfan When, Cosmere Puns and Cosmere Hogwarts under the General Brandon Discussion board. And if you're a Spook fan, also check out the Eastern Street Slang/High Imperial dedicated thread here Should keep you occupied for a while Board? Subforum? What's the correct terminology here? 1
Ashiok Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 delightful, can we pin that somewhere? Threads for new people to check out or something? 1
Delightful Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 That's a great idea! I'm not quite sure how to go about that though. Cosmere 101 should also definitely be on a list for new people. I can't think of anything else off the top of my head?
