Thanks a lot, I think I will be heading into Way of Kings in the next few days if I manage to find it in a bookstore, I figure it will be quite the ride.

It definitely is! Way of Kings is one of my favorite Sanderson books.
That quote, though! I remember being so suspicious of Blushweaver but liking her so much at the same time.

Sooooo-o, hello!

I just finished Warbreaker after reading all of Mistborn era 1 in a month and wanted to find a place to share my love for the one true Returned Lightsong ( I was very visibly excited when I was reading one of his viewpoint chapters) and my other interests regarding Brandon's books. I hope to take part in some interesting conversations while continuing my journey through the Cosmere.

Welcome to the shard!

Lightsong is awesome. What’s your favorite quote from him?  Mine is: (amazing pun alert)

Quote

“Sometimes our conversations remind me of a broken sword. Sharp, but lacking a point.”

*ecstatic sigh*

Have you read any of the SA books? Who’s your favorite character? (Aside from Lightsong)

I originally saw it on google while looking up all the different races. I saved it because it is awesome.

Cool! I just found it!

Um, this might be a bit old, but I would recommend Asimov’s The Caves of Steel. It was published in the 1950’s, but I think it’s great.

Even though I am nowhere close to achieving it, the reputation title I want the most is Voidbringer (3000 Rep). I don't want to get any more than that, so that my title will stay the same. Is there a way to implement this so that people can keep the title they want once they've earned it?

Also, help to become a Voidbringer is much obliged.

I have no idea since I’m fairly new, but I offer you aide on your noble(?) quest! Um, when you get there, please remember my contribution of 1 upvote and don’t kill me. That would be greatly appreciated. Thanks?

I play clarinet and used to play piano!

I used to be in marching band and play clarinet, but I left the band because my family was worried about Covid... I haven't really touched my instrument in a few months because of that, but I can probably still play it decently. My school also won our final marching band competition in 2019, so that's kind of cool. 

Also, I don't think I've ever seen someone play a contra-alto clarinet. I'm intrigued now. 

I...have not touched my clarinet for several months as well.

I like ginger snaps too! (I like most food hehe). I prefer gingerbread because it's softer. 

 

Yay! I prefer gingerbread as well. I tried to make it on Christmas...let’s just say I was a little heavy handed with the molasses and it didn’t turn out that well.

Are there any official images that Sanderson has approved to help with this? I think i have most of them down but I would like to not have to wonder wehn i come to a part with Natan or some other races that aren't mentioned that often. 

 

Thanks in advance

Stormfather! Scud! That is amazing.

May I ask where you found that? It’s adorable! And Rock is holding a spoon, and Lift and Lopen are there- *dies of happiness*

Sazed or *shuffles nervously* Taravangian 

I really love Sazed as well (can’t say the same about Taravangian ), especially in the final empire, when he was telling everyone about the religions...

What about your favorite in the original mistborn trilogy?

Hmmmm... I cannot decide! I really love Shallan, and how she tried to help her brothers like that during her childhood, but I’m also a huge fan of Elend’s arc in WoA. And Hoid is so funny...

I am a Rioter. The world should fear me now. BWAHAHHA

If we're talking full size novels, its either The Ways of Kings or Rhythm of War, probably RoW because of the Cosmereness of it.

If we're including shorts and novellas, then I'd have to say that The Emperor's Soul is way up there. There's something about it that makes it so hard to put down even though there is basically no action.

The way of kings is one of my favorites as well! Who’s your favorite character in the SA?

Hey everyone,

Longtime cosmere fan here! I've read and own all the canon cosmere works. I've never been one to post theories or get actively involved in book communities, but as I've always enjoyed reading discussions about the cosmere, I figured why not start now.

Welcome! What’s your favorite book?

This is quite the high bar for a question... I have to give that to Szeth though. Who doesn't love a sleep-deprived man walking with a talk black sword leaking destruction? 

Who doesn’t?

(Also, try not to double-post. I’m kind of new, and I know this because I did it as well...)

Have you taken the knights radiant order quiz? What order are you?  I’m an Elsecaller!

Hi, I'm new to the forums and Brandon Sandersons works. I have so far listened to the GraphicAudio versions of both the The Way of Kings and Words of Radiance, I'm currently just starting Edgedancer. (I'm hooked! All I listen to in work for 8 hours a day is these audiobooks) These books have been my introduction to the Cosmere so any suggestions on what to read/listen too next would be amazing! 

Welcome! Yay! I also love the GraphicAudio versions. I really recommend the Elantris one; it’s done so beautifully.

Mostly here to see everybody's thoughts on, well, everything Cosmere-related. If I share mine, tell me why I'm wrong (or right, it could happen) and I'll add you to my next soulstamp.

My apologies, but I'm rather picky.

Huh, I guess I can’t fault you on that since I do not drink cat blood myself.
