Snickering Sandersons! You're right. Well, thats a bit annoying.

spoilers, but only in the minorest sense of the chapter titles being revealed, and their relevance discussed. So, all the chapter titles in this book are a bit weird. Some of them have an easter egg quality, in that they refer to something, or have hidden significance that you might not see at first glance. If you can figure out why a specific thing was chosen for a chapter title, please put it in this thread Chapter titles, with any significance I was able to identify 1: Chapter 2 - because Alcatraz was too stoopid to include chapter 1, which is a shame because it has all the stuff that would make the book non-confusing 2: Chapter 6 - it's a relief he skipped all the boring stuff from chapters 3, 4, and 5 3: Chapter pi 4: Chapter 4 1/2 5: Chapter 42 - The ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 6: Chapter 144 7: Act V, Scene III 8: Chapter A+ 9: Chapter No! 10: Chapter 1010 - 1010 is 10 in binary, which matches up with the fact that it is the 10th chapter 11: Chapter 24601 - Main character's prison number from Les Miserables 12: Chapter 070706 - Probably a date (July 7th, 2006) but I don't know why 13: Chapter 6.02214179 x 10^23 - Avogadro's number, a constant having to do with measuring the number of atoms or molecules in a substance 14: Chapter Four Teens and a Pickle 15: Chapter 8675309 - The phone number in the popular song "Jenny". Lord have mercy on anyone with this phone number in real life 16: Chapter 16 - Umm, this actually looks like the regular chapter number. Am I missing some kind of trick here? 17: Chapter NCC-1701 - Or, more completely, USS Enterprise NCC-1701, the name of the ship in the original Star Trek series 18: Chapter 4815162342 - 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 is the sequence of numbers that appeared in the television show Lost. People trapped on an island thought they had to type these numbers into a computer every so often or the world would end. 19: Chapter ??? 20: Chapter infinity 21: Chapter infinity + 1 - for those of you not in the know, this number is the same as infinity. You can't get any bigger than infinity

Shasta does have a pair of translator lenses, but not from book 3. She got them from Attica's possesions in book 2.

I'm not sure where I saw this, so please don't call my bluff on this one, but I seem to recall from some distant past that the title of the series refers to an actual in universe collection of writings called The Stormlight Archive.

I'd have the talent to completely misunderstand what someone else was saying.

I'm going to guess that Odium did something really weird, that is, he took on the Honor shard himself. It would be a rather strange shard combo, and one that could prove rather interesting for an antagonist.

I can put this issue to rest ;D. Brandon told me at the Dallas signing for Towers of Midnight that the Almighty held Honor.

So, uh, I'm luminos, and I'm new here. I kind of lurked on TWG, but now that its in maintainence mode, and I'm excited about discussing The Way of Kings and the Cosmere in general, I felt I needed to join one of the forums that do this.
