Thank you so much! I am so happy it gave you a smile! I try to put the names and details in the funniest way I can think of so I am so glad it worked and you enjoyed!

Ooh that sounds awesome! Hope You have an excellent time reading! And nicely done on the multiquote feature, you got it down!

Agh well now it's just your secret super power! Talking normal one second and then BAM New Yorker! And hey double superpowers with that dabble in Bostonian!

Welcome the Shard Chris! I gotta say this is one of the better intros I've read! We can't believe you didn't search us out any sooner either, I mean c'mon what are you doing over there That is quite the repertoire of authors you have there all for that specific book style! That's really interesting you like fantasy but not sci-fi, they always seem to get grouped together! Ooh interesting first fantasy love! I've heard of the Confessor series (at least I think I have...) but have never actually given it a try. Strong recommend? And yes, I can so agree, SA is what fantasy was meant to be!! I can't even manage to put it down when I start exactly, I always have to make sure I got time to read And hey, as much or as little as it counts from someone on the internet, I'm proud of you for taking where you were, no matter how low it may have been, and turning it into where you are now. Just from the way this is written I can tell that you are a thoughtful, smart and amazing person to be around. I couldn't have said it better myself, "The mark of any true book, is that it makes you think, feel, and change, all while watching the characters do the same thing." Absolutely beautifully said and amazing that you have been able to connect with these books so closely in addition to enjoying them for the genre. I'm so happy that what you've done to get here has given us the pleasure of getting to meet you. Can't wait to get to know more about you as well

Welcome to the Shard! Super happy to have you come join us! Awesome that you've just finished off WoK! You are getting started on an incredible journey if I do say so myself For real though, the Cosmere is amazing and SA in particular I am so excited for you to read more about it! WoR is my personal favorite too hope you like that one even better If you had to swap 4 letters in Stormlight what would your new title be? Look forward to seeing you around!

Oh no way that actually sounds really cool! Man yeah thanks to Harakeke for getting that started but once you have it yeah wouldn't be too hard to go form there. Still though getting that down solid would take some time nicely done! That's also super interesting on whether it is the same for other version you are totally right. On one side I could totally see yes they changed it because they changed the book but at the same time those are likely just done as image renders and they might just copy the same for simplicity. And dang see that is where the skill comes in! It's keeping you on your toes having to switch between them Welcome again!

Oh nooo! That's just too many combinations in there Like it sounded like a good idea to mix them but once you finally get it your like huh... yeah maybe not. Well all it means is that you are extra unique!

Welcome to the Shard Mike! Delighted to have you come join us here if you've bee na wiki user for years! You're perfect for us That sounds absolutely awesome! I agree with Bearer I can't wait to see that! Not to give away any trade secrets but is it difficult to do or reasonable once you get the hang of it? Look forward to seeing you around!

That is quite the way to get into it! I can definitely understand, if you knew about the Cosmere beforehand that could be quite daunting. Hey for $4 though why not give it a shot that's awesome! So happy you stuck with it and gave it a chance too even after irgnally not being so enraptured. Relaxing and taking it easy is the perfect way to do it! And man, once you do get hooked on it I agree I don't even know if it is possible to be unhooked! So happy to have you stuck on it and here to join us!

Man... what a story! Welcome the Shard Scarecrow, so happy to have you come join us! That is exactly the type of praise you want to hear on a book I think you like many felt the pull of streaming and electronic devices creeping ever farther into our lives. In fact, I would almost say you were in the majority in not reading books much anymore. That day in Barnes and Noble should go down in the history books for you! And the fact that you were attracted off the cover and not scared aways by the length, doesn't get any better than that! Yes I can agree the first time you pick one of these up you seem to just be incapable of doing anything but inhaling it as fast as humanly possible. Finding the Cosmere too, one of the greatest days you will ever have Perfect timing too right at the start of quarantine! That is amazing it has rekindled your love for reading. Chilling with a great book is one of the best feelings ever so glad the books have brought you back to that. All caught up in 8 months on everything is perfect timing for RoW too! So glad the Shard has been an amazing resource, it is full of amazing people! We would be delighted to have you come join us in discussion and forum awesomeness whenever and wherever as well! Have you gotten to any of the non-Cosmere? Hope you enjoy the Shard!

Welcome to the Shard Ejhon! It's a joy to have you join us! No worries about the double post Honorless has it right on the money there with how to fix (and I put the same stuff on that one before coming here so you got it in two spots ) Sanderfans of all lengths are welcome no worries at all! Some have been fans for many many years and some for hardly even a month, it all works! Delighted to have you upgrade from turkey-lurkey to turkey-worked here it is the perfect time to make an account with RoW just out. We all absolutely adore the books too you are perfect for us What has been your favorite book so far? Hope you enjoy the Shard!

Ahhhh magical wards ofc that makes total sense! I knew there was something I was missing! Oof and well good the book remained alright, is there a spell in the magical old world scrolls that can remind you to place the wards? Would seem mighty convenient. And not using technology except for extreme instances such as the Shard makes total sense absolutely no worries! Gotta keep that vibe for sure! Yknow I totally hadn't thought about how much Pattern resembles Spock in the way he processes things you are so right! That monotone droll when trying to understand an insult or joke is sooo similar you are so right. Excellent observation! Oh and yes, so yes! I don't know if it will hold after RoW but so far WoR is my favorite in the series! And the ending... beautiful!! Oh and absolutely no worries abut the double post happens to everyone and that's one of the things we are here for! Hope you enjoy the Shard!

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed! It took me that long to do five people Lol nah apologies for the delay I had to keep doing "important life stuff" that was getting thrown at me so I kept having to pause it. The next ones will come much faster!

Ooh that's a great spot to start off in! Man, not knowing about the Cosmere until after OB must have been crazy! Literally a whole new world I can totally agree though the first time I found out about the Cosmere I was just like WOH.. that's awesome! Welcome again!

Ooh I completely agree with WoR! I love how the characters start to come into their own and and really start figuring out their powers. It's like the bridge between when you get to meet characters and when you get to understand the broader story. The pacing is really good as well! Welcome again!

Lol well it's good to have something to be able to thank Covid for that is quite the story! That is so awesome that the Cosmere got you back into the swing of just reading thing to enjoy them. It an be hard to find time to that with how crazy everything gets but these books are definitely worth it. I can definitely agree with starting SA and getting stuck there I always have to make sure there's nothing important that needs to get done because chances are I will just be stuck reading! And man, you sound like your chugging through the series well done! Would definitely recombined getting on Mistborn when you can absolutely! Oh and ofc, you are totally welcome! Hope to see you around!

The Legobinder!! I absolutely love the name welcome to the Shard! If you've been a five year lurker then it's the perfect time to join up with RoW coming out! I am so with you on the Legos too, like so with you Ok and if Mistborn was done a la Lego Movie I would literally probably watch that nonstop for 5 days. That would be sooooo amazing good choice! What was the first Sanderson book you read and do you wish you had started elsewhere? Look forward to seeing you around!

Welcome to the Shard! A book dragon wowza. Do you ever have difficulty lighting your books on fire as you try to read or is it pretty manageable? Always been curious of that for dragons We are delighted to have another new person come join us! I would give you a maybe on the memes thread. A pretty good job of keeping things in spoiler boxes is done but some stuff still gets out. Might wait for now but definitely worth checking out soon! Would so agree with Honorless here, you got that timing Dalinar style and all! Oh and itty bitty tippity whippity mods prefer if you don't double post. You can tap the plus icon on mutliple peoples posts to quote them all at once in one super post! Who has been your favorite Spren so far?

Welcome to the Shard Manic! So happy to have you come join us! We take fans of all Cosmeriness (don't mind me just making up words again ) so you are perfect for us! That is truly amazing that Brandon's work has been able to get you back into reading books just to enjoy them! It is such a joy to just sit down with a good book that is awesome it was able to rekindle that joy. And man, if you had to pick any pick I think you've found the right ones! Wonderful to have you out of Lurk City as well with RoW out this is the perfect time to join! What has been your favorite book so far?

Ooh a good friend as well then! You both get a medal I think Man that one is a keeper for sure. Oh boy and yeah I don't think anyone can say anything to get you fully prepared for a Sanderson novel that's awesome you've enjoyed them so much. Hope you enjoy the Shard and welcome again!

Welcome to the Shard Kane! So happy to have you come join us especially if you've been an 8 year fan! It is most definitely the perfect time to join up with RoW coming out momentarily Man I think you get an award or something for introducing THREE friends to the Cosmere! That's some amazing work right there Awesome they grew to be big fans as well was worried the hynosis was starting to wear off because then you have some irl people to talk to as well! How were you first introduced to WoK? Look forward to chatting with you as well! Let us know if you have any questions!

AGh double post many apologies Done now (finally think I need to invest in super speed ) and updated on the first post!

Welcome to the Shard Winti! So happy to have you join us! I can so feel you on the wait time, you just want it to go absolutely instantly! This is most definitely the perfect time to join with RoW I agree! And whatever your Cosmere readiness we are delighted to have you so you are for sure prepared if you are only missing those few! Good thoughts on OB. I think we might all end up liking RoW best when it first comes out before we really have time to process. Always interesting how that recency bias fits in! So awesome you are a newish fan too. How did you first hear of the books? Let us know if you have any questions!
