  1. Tom Hiddleston can't be anyone but Hoid.
  2. Well, going along with Autonomy's intent... It may be a characteristic of Autonomy that it is not as easily tied down as other shards. Especially given that what we know about Autonomy suggests that that intent seems to concern mostly the shards own autonomy and not necessarily everyone else's
  3. Another problem is that Brandon has said a LOT of things over server years and there isn't really an easy way to comb through it all. I find the coppermind wiki to be quite lacking in some areas. It's a work in progress

  6. My wife had read Elantris in High School and read the Mistborn trilogy about a year ago. She was freaking out while she read it and I, being way too busy with school, was amused but didn't read it myself. This summer she nudged me to read it again so we went to the library... where there wasnt a single copy, only Elantris. She urged me to read that but I was stubborn that I only wanted to read Mistborn. She grabbed Way of Kings followed by more freaking out and yelling at the book. On our next visit it was the same story: only Elantris, so I caved. Best book I'd ever read. In the two months that followed I read every published Cosmere story, Brandon's annotations, the released chapters of Liars of Partinel and I now own Elantris, the Wax and Wayne Series, and Arcanum Unbounded with plans to get the rest ASAP. EDIT: Have since bought Way of Kings and I'm picking up Words of Radiance this week
  7. 1. Words of Radiance (Kaladin flying and fighting Szeth is one of the most epic things ever) 2. Final Empire (It's just so good) 3. Way of Kings 4. Hero of Ages 5. Elantris (My first Brandon Sanderson book about 2 months ago. Great characters, great writing style. Just so darn fresh.) 6. Alloy of Law 7. Bands of Mourning (that epilogue though O_O) 8. Shadows of Self 9. Well of Ascension 10. Warbreaker (a very good book all the way through... until the last few pages. So meh. Brandon even says in the annotations that he thinks it might be anticlimactic and I just nod my head and say "yes, very much". Love Lightsong and his climax a lot though) This is really hard to do! It's like when people say they don't like a particular Pixar movie and what they really mean is "I still like it better than any non-Pixar animated movie". These books are all well above any other fantasy or sci-fi I've ever read so saying "I don't like Warbreaker much" just means I absolutely love it slighty less than another Sanderson book.
  8. This is literally me. I only read Brandon Sanderson (as of 2 months ago; I've now read the entire cosmere) and I recommend his books to everyone at every opportunity.
  9. So I recently finished reading the entirety of the (published) Cosmere stories and I'm just itching to get more info on some of these other worlds like Threnody. I've seen it said that Mistborn, Stormlight, and Dragonsteel are kind of the core of the Cosmere, but we've got so many other interesting worlds here. My question is does anybody know if Brandon has said anything more about some of the other stories he intends to tell? Particularly if he means to flesh out some of these other worlds with proper books/series? Like, Vax for instance???
