On this episode of Shardcast, we have to finally talk about answers about Trell, which we at last got in The Lost Metal. No spoilers in the description, but if you've read the book, you know what this is about! Big Lost Metal spoilers immediately, and we talk about all sorts of arcane cosmere stuff too.
It's time for our second reactions video on The Lost Metal, the final Wax & Wayne novel! How did this stack up to other books in Mistborn Era 2? Well more opinions are here! Enjoy! This one is also a bit of a sequel from Lost Previews too!
The Lost Metal, the final Mistborn Era 2 book is out, and you know we have so many full book, spoilery reactions for you this episode of Shardcast! We start with a short spoiler-free section and then go into full spoilers, and it's full cosmere spoilers too! We have so much to say! Also, this has some swanky visual changes for you. It's the end of an era, but beginning of a new one! And don't worry, we barely touched on stuff here, but there is so much analysis still to come!
It's our last Rhythm of War topic for 2022, and our last Shardcast before The Lost Metal! It's Adolin and Maya, because we've never done a dedicated cast on Adolin even before RoW. We talk about Adolin and Sadeas, pronunciation, ADOLINBLADE, how amazing Adolin and Maya are, and whether Maya will be healed. Also featuring a ghostly pumpkin.
Today we have a special episode, talking with author Janci Patterson on Bastille vs. the Evil Librarians, along with some stuff about the Cytoverse. We also randomly talk about dog bones and weresharks. It's lots of fun!
The very last Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians book, Bastille vs. the Evil Librarians, is out and the series is finally done! This is co-written by Janci Patterson and Brandon Sanderson. It's been a long road since 2007 since these started, and we've never done an Alcatraz episode on the show just due to timing. So, what did we think of this conclusion? Stay tuned to find out.
In this inaugural episode of Splintercast (or is it a revival?), we take a look at the Cradle series by Will Wight! As you're used to from Shardcast, there's lots to talk about. Splintercast is a new spin-off series where we discuss media outside Brandon's works and the cosmere. New episodes will come out sporadically, don't expect this to become a regular thing!
With the high likelihood of cosmere adaptations being announced soon, we thought we would talk about it. We discuss community expectations, what service would get this, potential changes, and more!
This episode of Shardcast, we're talking about the Venli chapters where she's Stoneshaping in Rhythm of War, the implications of the ancient past, and Ars Arcanum info! This is quite a spicy one here, as always happens when we talk about the pre-First Desolation time.
We've wanted to do an episode on Navani and Raboniel ever since Rhythm of War came out, and it's finally time we get into it! Let's analyze Navani's character in Rhythm of War, Raboniel and her introduction, and their dynamic together.
This episode we continue talking about June spoiler stream Words of Brandon, but since then, there's also been several comments on movie/TV adaptation news, and so we are starting with that today! We even cut in some additional discussion on Brandon's statements on the August stream too!
It's time for Words of Brandon on the June 2022 spoiler stream! This part one of two, so stay tuned next week for movie things. In this episode, we discuss some insane things about silver, Nightblood stomach mechanics, the return of asterisk, and... flavors of Investiture? Like what they all taste like, not a Spiritual thing. WoB episodes are wild.
We got a ton of new stuff in Rhythm of War on the Oathpact, Desolations, and the Heralds and how that all works. So much so that we had to split this episode in two! So today we're talking about about the Oathpact and Desolations, as well as the Everstorm and Braize! Next episode we will delve into the Heralds.
It's time for an episode we recorded ages ago, long before we even got the blurb for this book: Lost Metal Predictions! The final Wax and Wayne book is finally coming November. Here are our predictions and hopes for the book! Also, so so many mechanical tangents. What can we say, we are excited to talk Mistborn and the mysteries on Scadrial.
The final Mistborn Era 2 book, The Lost metal, comes out November, and there's still so much to discuss on the previous book, The Bands of Mourning. Today, we are talking about the Southern Scadrians: their history, how they survived, their culture and religion, and then we discuss in depth the Sovereign's temple and the Bands themselves.
Time for something different: it's our first episode that we recorded in-person! This one happened in JordanCon 2022 this April, and we're talking about Shards and hypothesizing about Shard hybrids! Sorry for the audio and video quality; I am not really happy with it here but hopefully it's fine enough.
The wait is over, the Secret Project episodes have been slain and the Stormlight Archive 5 prologue episode is finally here! (Your resident editing Feather appreciates the patience for the slight delay.) Though deep down, though, we all know the REAL wait is going to be for this book's release because this prologue is SPICY.
Our time with the Secret Projects is coming to a close for now, but we've got one last set of WoBs from Brandon's spoiler stream, all about Secret Project #4 and its implications for the wider Cosmere! Next week, it's finally coming: our reactions to Brandon's surprise reveal of the prologue to Stormlight Archive 5.
This week, we're talking about Secret Project 4! An intriguing start and a lot of cosmere connections to pull. Next week, look out for the WoBs related to this Secret Project... and then I promise we'll get to that Stormlight Prologue next.
This episode we are continuing talking about Secret Project 3, and we're discussing the magic, world, cosmere stuff, and Words of Brandon about this project from the Secret Project 3 stream!
This week's episode, we're talking about Secret Project 3! We decided to do two shorter episodes this time, so stay tuned next week for some more in-depth magic, cosmere, and Words of Brandon related to this one. Obviously, spoilers for Secret Project 3.
Secret Project 2 isn't cosmere, but join us for this very loopy episode where we discuss it anyway, along with news and Words of Brandon from the Secret Project 2 stream.
Remember how last week we said "oh if there are any good WoBs we'll put them at the beginning of Secret Project 2's episode"? Yeah, no, Brandon ruined that immediately by dropping huge lore bombs instantly in the Secret Project 1 stream, so we HAD to do a full episode on that. The first hour has some crazy stuff, so take a look!
This episode, we are delving into Brandon's reading of the first five chapters of Secret Project #1! We have Eric (Chaos), Grace (thegatorgirl), Ala (Rasarr), and Veronica (Cheyenne Sedai)! Next week we will be covering Brandon's spoiler stream on Secret Project #1.
We had to quickly put together a Shardcast in record time to discuss Brandon's video on March 1st. Make sure you check that out before watching this one (at https://youtu.be/6a-k6eaT-jQ ) because we go right into it.
