Hello there, and welcome to the chaos Shard! Since you've been reading the Cosmere for a bit now, what would you say your favorite book is? On a related note, who is your favorite character?
tilionvevfet Posted January 9, 2021 Author Posted January 9, 2021 Mistborn: The Final Empire is probably my favorite book. I just re-read it, and I still love it, even if I see more of its flaws. If forced to pick a favorite character, it's probably Sazed or Kaladin. If I sound uncertain, it's because I am; I enjoy basically everything Brandon has written and his characters are good enough it feels wrong to select one over another.
Mystic Syn she/her Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 I feel that, lol. But Final Empire is an amazing book, so I understand where you're coming from. Hero of Ages is probably one of my most favorites, because of the amazing ending. Ah, I love the two. I can see why it's hard for you to choose, because frankly, I have a hard time choosing just one when I can love them all, lol.

I've always thought Mistborn: The Final Empire was just called Mistborn! Learn something new everyday! Welcome to the Shard!
Honorless he/him Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 Welcome to the Shard! Have you taken the official Knights Radiant quiz? Which Order did you get?
Scarletfox Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 Hello, friend, welcome to the Shard! I can never choose which one of the era 1 mistborns I like most, they're all so good! Mistborn is deinitely my favorite of Sanderson's works so far. What's your favorite non-cosmere book?
tilionvevfet Posted January 10, 2021 Author Posted January 10, 2021 I got Truthwatcher on the Radiant Quiz. My favorite non-cosmere book is The Lord of the Rings.

Learn something new everyday! My 2006 paperback says "Mistborn" in the cover. "Mistborn" on the spine. "Mistborn" on the top of every odd-numbered page. The only places the words "The Final Empire" appear is the copyright info and the title page, and who looks at that? At the very least, it's certainly a bit misleading. Kind of like how that film that was originally titled "Star Wars" eventually became "A New Hope". Oh, @tilionvevfet, welcome!
Aon Tia she/her Posted January 12, 2021 Posted January 12, 2021 Welcome to the shard! Wow you are a long time fan of Sanderson! What finally prompted you to join the shard?
tilionvevfet Posted January 12, 2021 Author Posted January 12, 2021 I hadn't read any of Sanderson's books in a couple of years, but re-read the Stormlight Archive to get ready for Rhythm of War, remembered that 17th shard existed and just decided to join.
Aon Tia she/her Posted January 14, 2021 Posted January 14, 2021 Cool! When I read OB, I felt like I have to join the shard but it took a re read of cosmere to become active here!
Cheyenne Sedai she/her Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 Welcome to the Shard. Without spoilers, what's a particular piece of lore that you really enjoy?
