MrAudomatic Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) Hello. after a long hiatus from reading (for enjoyment) during undergrad and grad school, picked up Mistborn and immediately fell in love and have since finished all the cosmere. I went to school for geography so Brandon’s world building is a dream come true. also, after delving deep into the lore and having my mind blown by Dawnshard, started listening to the Shardcast and thought I would pop up in over here! also, also, I am a Gemini. But more importantly, an Edgedancer. Edited November 20, 2020 by MrAudomatic 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrAudomatic Posted November 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 Oh man. Probably gotta go with Vin since she was the main character of the first cosmere book I read. Also, really love Dalinar. minor shoutout for Silence Montane. Read Shadows for Silence shorty after becoming a father and that book stressed me out a ton! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is your least favorite character? Oh man. From a story standpoint probably Amaram. DiLaf. idk if I really dislike many characters. I might have said Lift until discovering I was an Edgedancer as well. And maybe Lopen. But he really grew on me in Dawnshard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scout_Fox Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Welcome to the Shard! So awesome Mistborn was able to get you back into the reading game! These books and reading in general is just too awesome to be gone from for too long That is so cool that you are a geography major and reading Cosmere as well! I can only imagine all the different ways you can look at it and all the new things you can notice. These are definitely the books to be doing that with too the world building is stunning! Hope you were able to get your mind back together after having it blown, common side effect when reading Sanderson if you can believe it or not, so inconvenient If you've been into lore and Shardcast you are perfect for us! So happy to have you join! I can totally agree on the Amaram hatred, it's the mark of a well written character because man is he infuriating. What has been your favorite series? Oh and our final welcoming step says "Thou shalt make newcomers felt thy bestest by informing of error" lol no biggie just wanted to say mods prefer if you don't double post. You can tap the plus icon on multiple people's posts to quote them all at once in one mega post! Look forward to seeing you around! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just for the nostalgia of exposing me to the Cosmere. Ohhhhhh. I got it. Like this Thanks for the heads up. As far as favorite series. I would say Stormlight. I started it sort of on a whim with no expectations and as a “well I gotta read me all” unknowing of how epic it was planned to be. Have had a ton of fun reading it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say Stormlight. Exactly like that! You got it! And I would say I have to agree on that Stormlight favorite totally. That is so crazy you started it off really with just no idea about it and then just absolutely got hooked. It is most definitely one of those series that you start off with and just go like "woh... this is epic." Hope you enjoy the Shard!
