[Spoilering just in case] So I just re-read Oathbringer and was curious if there's any significance to

Just wait until you read Oathbringer. I don't think you'd call it mental disorders necessarily but he does dive deep into emotions and pain. This isn't really a spoiler but it is a small quote from the final page of Oathbringer.

LMAO, if you type it in all the way you get what I assumed you lead me to find, but if you leave out the apostrophe and the S it shows:

So I started my journey with Malazan, Book of the Fallen today and last night out of curiosity I asked Google how many characters were in it. (There is actually 690). Also I discovered when you ask the same question on WoT it gives the definite answer of 5 (It's 2,782)

Just finished Veil of Spears by Bradley Beaulieu...I love this series so much. I really dig all of the And now I start my Malazan journey. I'm about 50 pages into Gardens of the moon! Also this cracked me up so much when I looked it up on Google last night (There is actualy 690 characters)

I wholeheartedly appreciate your insight, and actually I love when fantasy dives into real issues like faith. At this point I definitely need to finish the series if only to have my own opinion on it too. They hinted at this sort of faith at the end of the first book when

This is a hell of an introduction thread, welcome! Kaladin needs a regular girl I think, not a Knight's Radiant.

Thanks! It felt fitting after my reread of Oathbringer and my username choice.

Interesting...this series is on the backburner for me right now, maybe I'll get through book 3 then throw it back on the backburner again.

Hoid is the man! I love Szeth-Son-Son's story as well...but Dalinar in Oathbringer was incredible. His emotional progress through pain was so well written. I don't think there's a character I dislike reading, or even hate. This is a harder one...Maybe Taravangian, that sneaky bastard.

I'd kill to live somewhere that has land in the woods. I would love to be able to have my own section of woods to enjoy and maintain. I'm not sure where this would be however...I'd also have to look into the wildlife in the area so as to not die from grizzleys or get overrun by termites or something.

Daniel Greene is great! Elliot Brooks is fun. I recently discovered Mike's Book Reviews too which I don't agree with everything he says but I like some of his content. I also keep an eye on Den of Geek's fantasy section, also Tor.com and occasionally other publishers that put out series that I like.

Marai Nikki (Future Diary) is my favorite! I love this series. 24 episodes about and the POV is necessary. A god is dying and he chooses 12 people with different diaries to give their diaries abilities, the last one alive becomes God. Lot of plot twists and whatnot. It's a show that can be real silly one minute and very serious or bloody the next. I'm into the newish darker intelligently written ones like Tokyo Ghoul and Psycho Pass as well.

You're right, looks like it was a part of some fan art collection apparently...my bad!

This is probably one of the saddest moments in C&H. I recently however discovered my old collections at my parents and reread through all of them. Oh the nostalgia! Edit: This isn't a real strip, apparently it's fan-made.

Bummer to hear about the Lightbringer series. I've only read the first book, and I liked it all the way through, not a ton but I was into it, but I thought the ending was awesome. The giant wall,the battle, and the Lord Omnichrome was all pretty rad.

I'm on book 3 of the Song of the Shattered Sands series by Bradley Beaulieu. I love it so much! 5th book will be out later this year and the 6th and final book late 2021! The story, characters, and world are all very different from Sanderson's books but the writing style is very similar. I'm surprised this series isn't more popular. I'm also halfway through Robin Hobb's Farseer trilogy. I love how she writes. After these series I'm planning on jumping into either Malazan, or The Faithful and the Fallen Series by John Gwynne (I just heard from a friend that this series, 4 books, is awesome), or maybe try some Joe Abercrombie stuff.

I'm moving from Kelsier to Kaladin, I lose some joy but gain life!

Has anyone ever been excited to almost be a Darkeyes?

I love this style of these symbols (Bridge Four and a SA symbol). There's also a full collection of all the allomantic metals but I'm too new to post a link. (If you're interested I can hopefully PM the link still ). Unfortunately I'm not sure who made them to give credit.

I love it when they do that. Remember when Brandon said he had an announcement before the release of one of the second Mistborn trilogy books, and everyone thought he was going to push the release back but then he admitted that he wrote that book and the next one and they were coming out one after the other? Such a badass move, we need more of that!

I love the Mistborn magic system. The way that allomancy, feruchemy, and hemalurgy all interact is incredibly badass and is incredibly interesting. I do love the SA and Warbreaker systems as well. I have yet to quest out toward sci-fi...I've pretty much only read the Red Rising series and Firstborn. I'll get to it eventually, I just have a monstrous list of fantasy books I'm excited to get through first.

...Is the next one. Which brings me from lurker to member. Hey everyone! Huge Sanderson fan since 2013. I've read all of his cosmere works twice (at least) and most of the non-cosmere works. I can't wait for RoW, and also am going to lose my mind when I get my hands on a Dragonsteel edition of WoK. While I wait for Rhythm of War, I've been reading a few other series: Bradley Beaulieu's Song of the Shattered Sands series is amazing. I'm surprised that it isn't more popular as it's a wonderful piece of fantasy. The story is different, however the writing style is very similar to Sanderson...I'd recommend checking it out if you haven't! Robin Hobb's Farseer Trilogy is what I'm working on right now, I'm about halfway through Royal Assassin right now. I absolutely love how she writes these books. Up next for me is either The First Law trilogy, The Gentleman Bastard series, or I may start my journey with Malazan, Book of the Fallen. That's all from me, I'll see you in the depths of the cosmere!
