  1. I just need to add that the audiobook version of the series is absolutely fantastic! Ramon De Ocampo reads the books with phenomenal comedic timing and style. I personally feel that audiobook is the best way to go for this series (with the exception of a couple of jokes that rely on the reader flipping pages and such). I highly recommend taking a listen.
  2. I've been interested in this game since I first heard about it. It'd be great to try it out!
  3. Szeth shouldn't be too hard to pronounce, since /s/ and /z/ are pronounced with the same mouth/tongue position. The only difference is that /z/ is voiced while /s/ is unvoiced. (Try just going back and forth between /s/ and /z/, you don't have to move your mouth!) Therefore, start by pronouncing /s/, then add voicing to turn it into /z/. You'll be voicing the vowel anyway, so just start the voicing a little earlier. I pronounce Kaladin like Paladin. I pronounce the various Mistborn names as they are pronounced in the audiobooks, as that's where I first "read" them. I do put the stress on the second syllable of Kholin, /ko'lIn/ (that's a lowercase L followed by a capital i), which seems to be a minority, though if it's Greek/Hebrew-inspired, maybe I should pronounce it /ko'lin/ instead. That's really cool about Jasnah pronounced like "Yasnah" /'jazna/. I think I'll switch to that right away!
  4. I've really been looking forward to this book!
